[Chinasaurs reborn 07] Bathtub's works 2012-2016

[acro-man]

This gateway between Chinese sculptors and this lovable forum is opened in the hope that more Chinese models can be shared and enjoyed worldwide.
And this continuous series is called [Chinasaurs reborn]

Yang Yang aka. Bathtub is one of my favorite dinosaur sculptors from China.
He's shown great potential with progressively improved techniques over a few years.
Though young, he is half retired.
Let's have a look at a short summary of his dinosaur sculpts.



2012 Acrocanthosaurus





2014 Jack the T-rex






2014 Majungasaurus





2015 Majungasaurus2.0






2015 Torvosaurus






2016 Acrocanthosaurus2.0

Is Jack available?

Is Jack available?

Sorry. All of them are sold out, because Chinese model kits are always LIMITED.
Sometime earlier I saw a pre-owned one listed in the salted fish secondhand market.
The price reaches 500 bucks.

[Kaprosaurus]

I wish I knew these back then!

Bathtub has talent. I love some of the colour schemes, especially the Majungasaurus 2.0, the 2015 Torvosaurus in orange with striped tail; and the 2016 Acrocanthosaurus 2.0. Beautiful work.

The Torvosaurus paint scheme looks suspiciously similar to the Kaiyodo Suchomimus.

[Jose S.M.]

I really like both Majungasaurus. All of them are nice.

I've never seen any of his works before today, thanks for posting.  They are VERY impressive, especially that very stylized TRex, which must be HUGE since that's the Krentz Sideshow TRex (or is it the adult Shinzen TRex?) next to it in one of the photos?

Yes, that's a Krentz Sideshow T-rex.
It was used as a benchmark in the making of Jack when Bathtub needed to practice the fundementals of sculpting as a beginner.

[AcroSauroTaurus]

Those are absolutely beautiful. Especially the Acro's and Torvo.

[BlueKrono]

Did the Majung really have a crazy crest on its nose like in that 2.0 version?

[WarrenJB]

Amazing progress.

Woah.
