Hi im Daryl,
I am interested in everything dinosaur and also love modelling and painting.
When i was younger I spent a few years painting warhammer minitures, but eventually... grew out of it.
recently I had a child, and found myself with a lot more time at home so thought about getting back into it... but the models etc jsut didnt capture me... then i found this site!
I had never thought about resculpting/repainting dino toys, models, etc... but this evening ive ordered the carnegie giganotosaurus, nigersaurus, and carnotaurus and also the papo brown rex and styracosaurus...... 1st class post... so can get started over the weekend!!!
very excited!
I will keep pics etc posted if anyone is interested.
anyway, thats me.
hello...

I'm curious, are you interested in collecting the figures in their original finish too, aside from customising them? :)

I'm very much interested in collecting awell as customizing
Some models I will probably just put on bases, others I will look to repaint or remodel.
But some... I will leave as they are, cos there just to nice  :)

Don't tell my other half, but I'm preicting a spare bedroom full of models :)

The worst thing is as a kid I had a huge collection ity loads of the old natural history museum models, the old carnegie spinosaurus, and loads of the jp line... But I gave them all away to a friends kid.

But i don't mind starting from scratch.
