Hi hi hi!

Next small (1/72) self-made dino-stuff:

Coelophysis pulls an eye from a shortly passed by young Placerias.

Protoceratops andrewsi, 1/72

..is watching its nest.
Paintjob-reference is the Springbok (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springbok).
BTW, this kind of camo (bright  downside, sand/brown upside with contrast-stripe between) seems to be witespread in the recent fauna.

Last but not least: here we go with Placerias gigas, 1/72 - a late triassic Dicynodont.

Hi;

 I am so pleased that you chose to be somewhat inventive in the colors . Dr.Wing would be impressed .He was a lesser scientist on the Archeoptyrex find and a family friend . That's why I still have my interest . I spent one summer on a dig with his team .

 We were looking for more in that lineage .Very interesting . I wish he was alive to see the interest today . He would be thrilled . T.B.

Excellent sculpts, and excellent finishes!

Are you or David also on PlanetFigure?  I recall seeing someone posting SBS threads about sculpting prehistoric animals in 1/72.  Very cool projects!

The following creatures are sculpted by myself in 1/72 and can be ordered by writing me a PM.

There are others creatures waitng for painting and so completing the kit:

Deinonychus

(legs are thinner now and the "wings" a bit more narrow)

The upcoming kit will be the Woolly Rhino Coelodonta antiquitatis, 1/72, walking through the Taiga. The boxart-pics were taken today, so I can finish the kit this or next week.
