Description: Digitizing a small specimen (caudal vertebra of Citipati in the AMNH collection) without a turntable. B and C. Images from the two series, showing the two positions the specimen was placed in. Note that a matchbook was used to prop up the specimen in B. All parts of the surface were still adequately documented in several images, so that the blocking of parts of the specimen from view in some images had no negative consequences for model creation.
