It's always fun remembering there was a time when dragonflies had over 2 foot wing spans en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meganeura

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
I've built multiple life-size Megeneura models over the years, this one, for the Senckenberg Museum, Frankfurt, was the first at the full 70cm wingspan (2017).

From the vault: my life-size Meganeuropsis model, a giant griffinfly (Meganeuridae) from the Early Permian Wellington Formation of North America. The wingspan is 71cm.

You know Meganeura, the Carboniferous dragonfly with a 2.5-foot wingspan?
All dragonflies spend years of their lives as aquatic larvae before they climb out of the water and emerge as flying adults.
Which means...yeah.

Front view of my life-size Megeneura model (70cm wingspan), for the Senckenberg Museum, Frankfurt (2017). It would have been a fearsome predator with a nasty bite and loud wings!
