tyrannosaurus rex sculpture WIP ( make that acrocanthosaurus)

[Kayakasaurus]

I'm so sorry for your T. rex 

I'm glad your sticking to your goal of a theropod though. From what you've done so far I'm sure it's going to be awesome!

I like what you are doing with texturing. This looks to be a fantastic piece!

[Yutyrannus]

I really like the texturing and I can hardly wait to see how this turns out, good luck (and keep it away from certain little siblings to the best of your ability) .

[jooooo]

Sadto hear the Tyrannosaurus got cancelled. Good luck with Acrocanthosaurus.

Oh dear!  That's a pity! The sculpt looked really good!  Well - don't give up!

heres some more photos. unlike the tyrannosaurus, i used a stand to hold the acrocanthosaurus up so i don't have to touch it as much with my fingers.  as of now, i'm think it look pretty good.

[jooooo]

Looks great

[spinosaurus1]

more progress. i am now working down the neck.

Will you be giving it teeth (upper jaw overlaps bottom jaw)?

[spinosaurus1]

i haven't decided on that yet. i was going for partially covered with a fleshy covering as i imagine most theropods.
heres some for progress pics.

Wow great detail 

[spinosaurus1]

more progress

at this point, this sculpture is just being used to practice different textures. i realized a great error in where i placed the pelvis in my armature and realized too late. resulting with legs that stretch all the way into the dorsal crest. man i couldn't believed i overlooked that and it's too late to fix. instead of acrocanthosaurus, i probably just call it sauroniops or something of relation and very fragmentary material.

anyway, this sculpture is now dedicated to me just trying new sculpting techniques. i took the advice of kyakasaurus and baked two clay eyes so i can place into the head. i've then started texturing the legs  by first carving intercepting lines into it. then used a brush to smooth it out a little. once done, i proceeded to make a clay stamp( i know i neglected it's use earlier in this thread, but instead of stamping it onto a godzilla figure, i poked holes of various sized with a pencil.) and stamped it into the leg and refined some scaly details afterwards. i would like to hear what you guys think of this technique and give suggestions on how to better it . any sort of advice for creating wrinkles and scales would be very appreciated.

now for photos

how is it going now btw ?
