Try Merrick Burkhardt (sp?) Merrick@rt66.com
He was very helpful with suggestions on construction, and painting. You are 
absolutely right. It is one of the best pieces on the market. I wish they 
would do another Dino in the same scale.

Why, sure!
They are:

   Let me correct my scale from yesterday.....the flier I dug up with the
address on it says 150 handcast resin pieces (the maxilla is in 3 pieces!) 
in
1/12th scale, so it would come out to 26 inches long, about.
   They'll send a photo of the kit assembled on request.
(I found one of their people on line once, in the Internet
rec.scale.modellers newsgroup, but I've lost the address for this person)
    Remember, I am not working for these guys, I just like what they do very
much.  I believe they also have a modern minsk whale skeleton, a horse (I
think modern) skeleton, and they are planning on doing a series on (I think)
1/2 scale early man skulls, where the teeth (remember the guy that sculpts
these is a dentist) are so accurate to the originals, you can teach from
them.
   I've seen their ad in the back of the Smithsonian Magazine, most 
recently.
(right, Mr. Chapman?)
