This is a really lovely paint job! I love your choice of colours, the careful application and the amount of detail you've put in. However, I do feel skill like that should be put to use on better models (sorry, no offence intended) - having said which I can understand why you wouldn't want to try on something like a Wild Safari as a first attempt. So overall, this is a really nice! Keep up the good work!

Wow! That's amazing!
Is that just a generic "made in china" stegosaurus?

You have done a really good repaint  :o.
[Off Nick and Eddie's reactions to the dinosaurs] Oh yeah "Ooh, aah", that's how it always starts. But then there's running and screaming.

{about the T-Rex) When he sees us with his kid isn't he gonna be like "you"!?

Wow, that is really nice.  I actually like your choice of model, it may not have been a great one to start with, but you've really enhanced it and given it new life.

Megalosaurus

Nice colour sheme.
Keep doing that good work.

I think most folks shell out a premium for either something repainted by an established build-up artist, or for specially-commissioned pieces. This repaint looks really good but I'm not sure it would command a high price.
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

Great paint job! I actually like the sculpt as well, rather ancient/outdated!
