Angie’s Makeover
Like all the metal sculptures Angie goes through a process to protect her from the elements. The final finish is my imagination for what the particular Prehistoric Animal might have looked like.

Again, Don’t Try This at Home? And Dinosaur Trackers!
It’s time to add the Raptor tracks and freshen-up the T-Rex Prints. I didn’t mix the white paint enough and the T-Rex prints came out too light! Now is the perfect opportunity to address that issue.
