Hi all. Here's another recent build. It's Jon Rader's 1/35 Styracosaurus. It's a nice little model. Didn't use the tall resin gnarly tree supplied with the kit, but went with some wood for an old tree and a Tamiya Archeopteryx in the tree. I know, Jurassic critter - but it barely looks like an Archeopteryx anyway. :-) Comments are welcome.

Brad.

wonderful! I also love the colors. what do you use for the fern?

amargasaurus cazaui

Stunning piece !!! I am sure I could do that...given about a million years to practice !! Just amazing.

Thanks for the kind comments, everyone. This was the first ceratopsian I've done that I'm satisfied with. The ferns are asparagus ferns - I should have painted them, though. Since the picture was taken, they've turned yellow. :-)

Good work  ^-^! I like all, but the Arcaheopteryx s a good detail for your diorama and the plants are amazing. Well done.
[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"!?

Good to see you here Brad,

Fantastic work as usual.

very nice diorama. I know the problem with real plants on dioramas, but some keep green for a long time.
