I'm still alive! And look- Megaraptor foot!

Just wanted to reassure everyone I'm still here.  I've been doing *gasp* actual work to be submitted, finishing off the last appendix of the manuscript.  But in the absence of something else, here's a Photoshop rendition of Megaraptor's metatarsus using the holotype (metatarsal III, from Novas, 1998), MUCPv-341 (metatarsal IV, from Calvo et al., 2004) and UNPSJB-PV 958 (metatarsal II, from Lamanna, 2004).  The individuals are almost the same size based on their manual unguals Is, so the metatarsals are at almost the same scale.

Composite metatarsus of Megaraptor in extensor view with metatarsal IV also in proximal view.  Modified from Novas (1998), Calvo et al. (2004) and Lamanna (2004).
