Bravo! Well done...it certainly looks like a "terror bird" which was at the top of the food chain for millions of years at one time. I don't think it's a Diatryma, is it....there was a South American species that looked liked this; it's name was Kelenken. Beautiful....

Well Actually is based on the Phorosacus bird, indeed it is a terror bird, here you can see images of the original sculp

and a pair of the metal copy

I still have some copies left so if any body is interested on geting one just let me know.
