Allosaurus VS Camarasaurus Diorama

[LOTRFan]

Love the coloring on the Allos, mine is on FLEX sadly but this looks fantastic!

 

[Spiker]

Nice, that's one of the best paint-ups I've seen for that kit. You do it yourself?

Yes i did it back in 1993 when JP came out. It has the blueish/greyish/greenish tone to reassemble the cruiser attack scene which is at night and in the rain.

 

[dansdinosaurs]

Well, that is damn fine work. Make sure you take good care of it.

Awesome pics! Mine is Thursday!

My Allosaurus is missing his tongue.

Camarasaurus got your tongue.

I'm still waiting for the UPS guy to show up today...man their running late.. :/

 

[dansdinosaurs]

Make sure you check everybody's mouths. Also, does anyone else have their running Allo physically touching the Camarasaurus once planted in the base? I'm concerned about rubbing issues.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

If it isn't moving it shouldn't rub..once it's assembled your going to leave it that way right ?

Which Allo was missing the tongue ?

 

[dansdinosaurs]

The running Allo has no tongue. The biting Allo barely has any tongue showing, so there's no reason for them to cast it separately.

 

[Mightytrex]

I love how they used the Carnegies camarasaurus skeleton on the bottom of the base. I walk past it every day.

 

[dansdinosaurs]

I like that, too. And the Allo is from NMHM.

 

[Mightytrex]

I wish they had put skeletons on the bottom from the beginning.

I wish they had put skeletons on the bottom from the beginning.

I had that same thought, and then I realized it hardly matters since I never see the base. But dammit, I like uniformity.

Thanks for the picks Fremen. Glad to see the colors are nice and vibrant.


Hope mine comes with tongues intact.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Just got mine open..#78...box was a bit beat up but I don't see any major problems....some paint rubs and the attacking Allo is slightly off from where it's supposed to connect.

I do have a questions though...mostly about feet...heh

Can an Allo actually bend it's ankle to the degree the running one's is ?

Why is the Camara's right foot clubbed ?

 

[dansdinosaurs]

I noticed that, too. I figure at high speeds, it could push some odd angles, but man - that running Allo just steals the show. Nice curvature going on, he's almost standalone maquette material.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Don't I know it... ;D

Hopefully they will give him his own maquette later on...
