The greyness and darkness add terrific setting which wonderfully overlays that amazing piece of paleo art work!

Ack, should have told you beforehand that Caudipteryx is now thought to have had just a single continuous tail fan instead of one divided in half as commonly portrayed. (Don't remember the reference; I read about it on Matt Martyniuk's site but he's changed the text since then.) Also, the third finger is tiny and clawless, and probably invisible in life (a la Balaur).

Aw, thatΒ΄s unfortunate. About the third finger, I just assumed it was shorter than the thumb as it didnt show up in any reconstruction IΒ΄m aware of. :S I think I can fix both things, though.
(Also I think the colours as a whole need a bit more of work, so IΒ΄ll get to it)
