Summary

Description
English: Drawing of the theropod dinosaur Compsognathus (Late Jurassic, Germany).

I uploaded my first Compsognathus restoration in late 2008 (reuploaded in January 2009 by "BetacommandBot"). This new version is made from a skeletal reconstruction by Justin Van Loocke.[1] The feather plumage and colour patterns are inspired from the closely related Sinosauropteryx.[2]
