D. antirrhopus sculpture (really cool)

["Ken Kinman" <kinman@hotmail.com>]

Jordan and Daniel,
    Speaking of Deinonychus antirrhopus, I just found a really great

and he is working on an Oviraptor sculpture as well (the Deinonychus is so
realistic-looking it looks like it could almost come to life):
