Dear DinoToyForum Members

My name is Linda, I'm from Switzerland. My hobby and passion is to draw and paint prehistoric animals (+ birds and other recent animals) and to repaint dinosaur toys. My favourite label for my repaints is Papo. The details are awesome!
My passion for prehistory started in my childhood (I think, that concerns nearly all of you too  ;)). Instead of playing with puppets, I preferred the british museum natural history dinosaur toys, which I collected. But then I put that passion on hold for many years and reactivated it about tree years ago.
I am showing my artwork on DeviantArt since then and on my fb-page since shortly.
And now, I'm looking forward to be a member of the DinoToyForum and communicate with you!

Best wishes
Linda

Welcome, Linda! I've seen some of your paintings before, they're brilliant. The Saurornithoides portrait is a favorite of mine :)

Grüezi! Part of my genes (maternal) are Swiss too. Welcome here! Your painting skills are impressive.
I'm going to visit the Zürich Dinosaurs again in early Septemper :).

Welcome! Any paintings of pygmy-falcons?
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.

Welcome to dtf new friends, your drawings are awesome  ;).
[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"!?

:)) hihi, thank's! I painted that Spino because I felt in love with the Sideshow Spinosaurus. But that one is (justifiable) expensive. And so, I made my own.
