Congratulations on finishing her, Chris. She looks great, and I can't wait to see her in her final display spot.

Thanks bud, very proud of my big girl ! Will post some new pics as soon as I get her moved.

Test fitting the Styrac head :

Looks pretty good I think. I actually got a lot more of the body coated today, the body itself should be coated completely in a few days I think. Then I have to do detail work..add the small ridge along the spine, things like that. I'm goign to start coating the head tonight I hope.

Not life-size, my HOA wouldn't approve, but does anyone know where I can find a museum-quality skeleton of a T. rex in the neighborhood of six to eight feet in length?

Something similar to this:

This is a six-foot-long animatronic T. rex that walks in place. It's part of the traveling exhibition, "Dinosaurs: Ancient Fossils, New Discoveries."

I'm not looking for an animatronic figure, just something similar in size.

The ability to adjust the mount would be a plus, as I'd like the pose to be more dynamic.

I really like this Black Hills Institute STAN mount:

very nice model, blade. At this time it looks a little bit like a protoceratops.

Aye, at this point it certainly did !

Here are finished pics of it and the Brachio..you guys might recognize the color scheme a bit on the Styrac .. ;D

Not lifesize(maybe we should change the thread name to Dinosaur Collectibles), but here is my 1/6 scale Stan bust I bought at Wonderfest. It was built up by Martin Garratt. He also built a base, that allows me to display the bust on a flat surface.

I didn't know this thread existed! There is definitely some great stuff in here! Love the collections everyone!

Wow, excellent model and great photography. Thanks for the pics, Jeremy!

Finally listed it.
Kinda listed it high, but as I don't mind keeping it, and more just testing the waters I'm fine if it does not sell. I have had my eye out for another for years, and have not come across another, so I have nothing to gauge it off of.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Where did you list it ? eBay ?

 

[riky]

Yeah. Just search Trcic

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Hmm..I did yesterday and nothing came up..but here it is : https://www.ebay.com/itm/Trcic-Drom...857478277?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item4d08a47885

Cool seeing it finally..I mean I've seen the full body bodied one in pics from Disney..but never saw this kit before that I can recall...maybe in an old issue of PT.

Hey guys, I thought anyone on this thread would be interested in my latest piece of university work. We had to create a skeleton using reductive sculpting/ carving, so I had to create a Tyrannosaurus Rex. I made him in 1/20 scale, so is roughty 2 foot long.
Hope you enjoy it

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Wow..that's sweet ! You can't much cooler than black !

I've been working on my 1:1 pieces but weather is holding me back a bit. Here is a 1:1 feathered Struthio awaiting warm weather to be painted :

McVey Running T Rex also listed. They don't come up to often.

That looks great! Looks like an official company product!

I haven't bought a collectible in a long time..
but finally picked up my latest addition from my master painter.

I love it...very close to the JP raptor

Now I have to make a base so I can mount it on the wall.
