Alexxitator sculpting

[Alexxitator]

Hey all. This is my second thread about my own art. But the first one has some missing images and stuff so I decided to create a new thread with all images in Photobucket, as that seems to work much better.
In this first post I will place pictures of all I have done up until now.

My very first child was this Iguonodon type guy. Do not linger on the inaccurate paws and the fact he could use some more meat on his bones. 


Next there was my cotylorhynchus




My Diplocaulus was my third sculpt ever.




Then I decided to create a mate for my Safari Suchomimus, this is one I have never showed here yet. I am not entirely happy with the paint yet, and his neck could of been a bit longer. Overall I am not unhappy with him.




Next up is my attempt at a Rapetosaurus. This one is a project dubium now, because it never finished so far. But who knows.


Then I traded for a Leptoceratops with Roselaar and this little guy inspired a whole family that is still a work in progress. These guys are in the same scale as the Safari piece, and the child-sized ones are a challenge, but so much fun to make. And yes, the one on his back is supposed to be on his back.




Next there is my unfinished Cryptoclidus on a finished base. Work in progress it is.


My Argentinosaurus-based holiday piece. Made this without much research but am pretty pleased with it.

Your sculpts are very good; I especially like the Leptoceratops, Diplocaulus,and, most of all, the Cotylorhynchus. Non-Dimetrodon pelycosaurs are quite a rarity in the prehistoric collecting world, and it's nice to see you made such a good one.

i really need to start sculpting again. this is wonderful work

Beautiful work, you're very talented. I love that Leptoceratops.

Cryptoclidus is finished. I am not entirely convinced about the colourscheme, but overall I am quite pleased.
If anyone has a hint for sharp teeth on a 16 cm model like this, I'm all ears. These are feather barbs.

Beautiful work...

Looks really good. That tooth question has me pondering. If you have wire cutters, maybe you could trim the tips off of a bait-fishing rig (one of those multi-hook rigs that's meant to trail a "school" of minnows through the water). Probably a good fishing supply place would sell you just the hooks, because lots of anglers like to build their own rigs.Then just a coat of paint on the metal. I'm no sure though, that might still be too large.

I really like the color scheme on this guy. for teeth, depending on size I make them out of Aves Apoxie first and insert them into the clay of larger models. For smaller ones, I attach tiny pieces and use a fine tool to smooth and shape it.

Thanks for all the kind words on this latest, and my previous projects.
Although I like the fish-hook-idea (and I may explore it later for some extra nasty looking beastie) I for now am going to be looking for some sort of dremel-like tool for creating those pointers. See where that gets me. Interesting idea!

Good stuff, especially the Diplocaulus.

That Cryptoclidus is cool! I really like the colors!
