Hi folks:

This was my first dino kit all those years back when Jurassic Park was doing the rounds. I think the scale is 1/5 and I used the same glass eyes Marcus Nichols employed in his build in Tamiya Model Magazine International.

Apologies for the crud background - early days and since rectified.











...and if you have trouble sleeping; here's the build article - http://modelingmadness.com/review/misc/figures/buddveloc.htm


Best regards

Hi P:

Thanks for that.
The scale of the kit made chopping out the vinyl orbits easy and they certainly add a touch of realism that paint alone simply can't touch.


Best regards

Steve
