Taking Little Al for a walk



My dinosaur isn't completely finished but he still managed to turn a lot of heads over the Halloween weekend.



We still need to tweak a few little things and attach the allosaurus legs.

Absolutely amazing! I would have done a double take if I saw you in the park that's for sure!
