preferable scale for sculptures (therizinosaurus update 5)

[WarrenJB]

Nicccce.

I'm a bit late to the party but if casting, I might've suggested 1/50 - 1/56. Few people ever got rich on 28-32mm tabletop gaming figures, but if you could grab a couple of crossover sales...

The world still needs a good and accurate Therizinosaurus, and I think this is going to be it!  If you end up casting these, I'd definitely be interested in buying. 

i decided to conjoin the 2nd and 3rd digits. completely plausible afaik and adds some uniqueness to the sculpture imo

That's the route I would've gone as well.  I think we're well on our way to discovering this was standard for coelurosaurs.

I prefer 1/24 scale. I already have a menagerie building up. A lot need to be painted though.

Thank you for doing my favorite dinosaur justice! There's always been something off about the CollectA Deluxe one to me, I'm glad to see you taking a new shot at it! It looks spectacular so far!

[spinosaurus1]

started one of the feet.

[Newt]

Looking good! It's already getting a feeling of mass and ponderous weight. I like the fold of skin over the base of the toes.

[spinosaurus1]

thank you Newt

really wanted to make the feet look like they could bare therizinosaurus weight. an animal as wide as therizinosaurus is going to need the extra cushioning



now close to finishing the hands now. once done i'm going to get the limbs on the other side up to par. then it's off to texturing the belly

[ZoPteryx]

Looking really good!    Curious how you're going to handle the feathers.

[spinosaurus1]

ZoPteryx: i'm going to have the feathers done separate once the skin is finished

more progress on the theri

That drumstick would feed a battalion...

Looking good!

[spinosaurus1]

thanks Newt. therizinosaurus was thick all around... except for the head and neck of coarse XD

[ZoPteryx]

I like the addition of that propatagium like structure, this is turning out awesome! 

[spinosaurus1]

I like the addition of that propatagium like structure, this is turning out awesome! 

thank you yeah, decided to give this guy some prominent flesh anatomy that is comenly looked over in most therizinosaurus figures and sculptures. plus it really adds to the meatyness of the sculpture. therizinosaurus was no joke, it was built like a brick XD

[alexeratops]

I love it! The texturing is amazing.

Sorry if this is redundant or has already been asked, but are you adding feathers or leaving it scaly? It would look great either way though. 

[spinosaurus1]

thank you

i originally was going to make just a feathered version, but i was actually quite surprise by the amount of people who were interested in getting this sculpture featherless, so i would be looking into making two versions.

[Archinto]

This is looking awesome! I really like the approach you are taking with this. The syndactyly of the hands looks really good. I've always figured therizinosaurs had syndactylous hands to make them stronger for digging scraping etc... Looking forward to seeing the final result!
