Behold the painted prototype of Creative Beast/Eons’ Prehistoric Elephants Moeritherium!
The colour scheme is reminiscent of the Moeritherium that was featured in the BBC series Walking with Beasts. Both were clearly inspired by the common hippopotamus.
And here’s some other pleasing news: the Backerkit campaign is doing well thus far.
If you’ve been enjoying Beasts of the Mesozoic and are looking forward to Cyberzoic, then why not help make Prehistoric Elephants a reality as well? The Backerkit campaign has officially commenced and will terminate at the end of the month. You’ve already seen the woolly mammoth adult and calf, the Gomphotherium, and the Platybelodon; now check out the concept art and prototype of the Moeritherium!
Boy, the reveals for the upcoming Prehistoric Elephants series sure have been happening fast! Only yesterday we were admiring the unpainted Platybelodon prototype and now here’s the painted one in all its grey glory!
Remember, the backer campaign launches in just four days!
The fourth figure for the Creative Beast/Eons Prehistoric Elephants line is none other than the famous “shovel tusker” Platybelodon! Here’s the concept art by Ross Persichetti.
And here’s the unpainted prototype for the actual figure. Looks fantastic!
And check out the 1/12 melanistic Smilodon for the Beasts of the Cenozoic series.
Well, that was quick. Here’s the painted prototype of the Creative Beast/Eons Prehistoric Elephants Gomphotherium!
Back when I was a child, prehistory books depicted Gomphotherium with brown fur all over. It seems a little less unusual now.
And check out these instructions for the Cyberzoic Razorhound armour that goes with the Achillobator.
Lots of exciting new images from Creative Beast were released last week. First up are these ones of the final sample for the 1/18 scale Beasts of the Mesozoic Allosaurus fragilis.
This figure will come with the new display stand, which has optional foam padding on the bottom.
Leapin’ lizards – that ain’t no ordinary lizard!!
If you had to choose just one of Charles R. Knight’s influential and iconic paleoart pieces as his very greatest work, which one would you pick? Out of all Knight’s incredible paintings, the one I personally find most captivating is the 1897 “Leaping Laelaps“, a vivid illustration of two large theropods pouncing upon each other in what could be either play-fighting or serious combat.
Calling this a 2024 release is admittedly iffy, as 2025 is probably more likely, but anyway, here’s the painted prototype of the Creative Beast/Eons 1/18 scale woolly mammoth calf!
I really like how many different colours have gone into this furry little pachyderm, as woolly mammoth figures have historically been pretty bland in terms of colouration.
Here is the painted prototype of the 1/18 scale Beasts of the Mesozoic Allosaurus fragilis by Matt Holt.
This is definitely going to be one of the best Allosaurus figures yet. Everything about it looks terrific.
And here’s a small but exciting update for Creative Beast and Eons’ Prehistoric Elephants series: a breakdown of the parts and articulation of the adult woolly mammoth by Ross Persichetti.
If David Silva of Creative Beast Studio could be summed up in a single word, I think that word would be “ambitious.” In addition to his ongoing Beasts of the Mesozoic and Cyberzoic series, he has made the following announcement:
Toy manufacturers don’t think that people are interested in scientific accuracy, but Eons and Creative Beast Studio know otherwise!
Deinonychus was perhaps the most noticeable omission from the Beasts of the Mesozoic Raptor Series, but it will soon be available in all its feathery glory! Check out these images of the 1/18 scale painted prototype.
The terrible claw never looked better.
Creative Beast has released the catalog shots of the Cyberzoic Achillobator. Decked out in Fire Clan armour and ridden by a Fire Guard, it looks like one scary customer!
And don’t forget that the armour can be reconfigured into a relentless Razorhead robot!
