Tupuxuara - Pterodactyl

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Looks really nice ! ;D

It might be the lighting..the paint job looks pretty similar to the Collecta Hatzeopteryx...alright..just not..superb I guess.

A fully extended pterosaur would be difficult..but not much more so than flying dragons , birds or other fantastical pieces I've seen..I'm imaging the Gentle Giant Hungarian Horntail Dragon I have..lol

Here's the pics of number 38. Lighting is horrid, but it shows really well.

A few more for comparison.

Here's another set of pics under natural light...

This piece is growing on me very quickly.

I can't stretch enough how much I like the guano on the rock. It gives the audience a grasp of reality regardless of its alien appearance, it's an animal trying to get by, not some sort of fictional monster.

Come on Monday

Paint job is looking better under different lighting conditions... ;D

There looks to be a large smooth spot where the neck attaches to the torso..wonder if that's an error or just nothing was sculpted there ?

I watched the preview video again, and thought to myself, "Hm... I wonder if it would look this way if I used the same fancy lighting."

Numba 31 Colors are a bit dull in person but overall very pleased with this piece.

Congratulations to those who have received their Tupuxuara statues. Mine should be here this Wednesday, so not too much longer now.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Looks nice Mighty !

Is it just the lighting or does it seem to lack a lot of detail ? Compared to the earlier pieces at least.

 

[Jeremy K9]

It does seem to be lacking in the detail department. All the pics i've seen so far, make it look like this guy has glass eyes. Oh, how I wish it were true. Although, I've always thought glass eyes would only make the poor paint jobs look worse. It's nicer when the glass/acrylic eyes have a great paint job to go with them.

Btw, just got finished reading the first half of Delgado's PT interview. I'm ecstatic to hear that we will be seeing plenty more Age of Reptiles stories, coming from this man. Can't believe the guy got cut off in traffic, by Clint Eastwood. This man has some interesting stories.

Nah it's just the flash its the same as the others

 

[Agent0028]

Got mine, I think it's great, but the colors seem more muted. The poo doesn't stand out as much either, it kinda looks like it may be color variations in the rock in some areas.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

It's the same as the Rex VS Trike or Carnotaurus ? Doesn't look like it...I'm thinking Jorge's style is just a bit softer than Adrian, Krentz or McVey.

 

[dansdinosaurs]

That wouldn't explain the fine feather detail on the Velociraptor, though.

It wouldn't ? Adrian sculpted that piece..it was his last one. Jorge's first piece was the Allo VS Camara .
