Gigantoraptor is the largest known oviraptorosaur for which skeletal material is available. Approximately three times as long and 35 times heavier than the largest earlier-discovered oviraptorosaur Citipati , the holotype of Gigantoraptor has been estimated at 8 m (26 ft) long with a height of 3.5 m (11 ft) at the hips, and a ponderous weight ...
Utahraptor was one of, if not the largest and heaviest of all dromaeosaurids, with the largest assigned specimen BYUVP 15465 having a femoral length of 56.5–60 cm (22.2–23.6 in). [8] [9] Utahraptor is estimated to have reached 6–7 metres (20–23 ft) in length and somewhat less than 500 kg (1,100 lb), comparable in weight to a polar bear.
Size of two specimens compared to a human. South American megaraptorids were generally very large, exceeding 7 m (23 ft) in length and 1 t (1,000 kg) in mass. [6] The holotype of Megaraptor was estimated by Fernando Novas to measure around 8 m (26 ft) in length. [1]

Gigantoraptor looks really good, I like how you've added a bit of a crest and scaled down the eye (the "official" reconstruction just looks like a gargantuan Ingenia). One thing I'd do is feather the hands--the position of Citipati nesting specimens indicates they had proper wings stemming from digit 2, and Caudipteryx also has primary feathers.
Oviraptor (/ ˈ oʊ v ɪ r æ p t ər /; lit. ' egg thief ') is a genus of oviraptorid dinosaur that lived in Asia during the Late Cretaceous period. The first remains were collected from the Djadokhta Formation of Mongolia in 1923 during a paleontological expedition led by Roy Chapman Andrews, and in the following year the genus and type species Oviraptor philoceratops were named by Henry ...
British scientists using forensic anthropology, similar to how police solve crimes, have stitched together what they say is probably most accurate image of Jesus Christ's real face, and he's not ...
