Aurora Phorusrhacos Terror Bird

#1 Post by bucketfoot-al »

Had this bird for about 11 years or so (no base), and I finally built and painted it up this Summer. The color scheme is from Ray Harryhausen's film "Mysterious Island".

That is an awesome paint job! I'm so used to seeing that ol' bird in shades of blue and white, this is a great change-up!

I like it. Very different from the usual blue color scheme.
