My first thougth after seeing this work was "Hey, he used the skeletal from National Geographic Magazine!" 
What can I say about your work? It's high class paleoart as usual. You have done some great job here. I really like how you've drawn the osteoderms and the head. My only complaint is about the number of the claws on the forelimbs. From what I know all archosaurs have only three claws on their forelimbs. Fingers 4 and 5 are clawless. Other than that it's great.

You're right!!! the article was Ok!! I'm not very involved with crocs or crurotarsans, thus I can't give a "scientific opinion". However, the spanish version of the article had some minor translation errors (nothing like "Gigantosaurus" the big theropod...). Raul Martin restorations are, as always, fantastic! Also, the crocs made by Todd Marshall are good.
About the number of claws... you're probably right! That's an error that I always carry, probably due to the fact that I usually draw three fingered theropods (not an excuse! I will pay more attention).
Thank you very much for your comments!!!

Muchas gracias!! siendo honesto... la verdad es que no se si tenia muchas ganas de dibujar a este coso... pero justo salio un esqueleto del bicho en la revista NatGeo (fue tramposo, en la tapa habia una hermosa ilustracion de Raul Martin que involucraba a un Albertosaurus y un Coco gigante)... y dije... bueh, para variar un poco!
No me llaman mucho estos bichos... y no solo porque esten extintos... jeje
