Artist Fun Fact: The idea to make Spinosaurus came from a National Geographic Story. New fossil discoveries lead them to redefine what Spinosaurus looked like and how he lived. Barn cleaner chain links, salvaged from my cousin’s dairy farm, made some fine vertebrae. Spinosaurus is just a baby, at 22’ long, he’s only half the size of an adult!
