About this reconstruction

Fossils from Mongolia date to the Late Cretaceous, roughly 75 million years ago. One measured specimen has a 238 mm femur, 255 mm tibia, and 99 mm third metatarsal. Quill knobs on the forearm bones show that feathers were attached; soft tissue and colours are interpretive.

Project process

How projects work

  1. Define the project.

    We clarify what the website needs to say, show, and help customers do.

  2. Design and build it.

    Structure, writing, visual design, and development move forward as one connected project.

  3. Launch it as yours.

    We launch it, show you how it works, and hand over the keys.
