Sideshow DINOSAURIA (with poll)

[joossa]

What a monster! 

Nice pics!  I think natural sunlight always makes a piece look best!

I agree. Very nice!


I still cry myself to sleep at night over the Carnotaurus and how the paint app turned out. I really wanted one.

You could always purchase it and have it repainted.  Martin I think is working on a couple of his now.

Problem is, I don't know how to paint/airbrush. I would have to commission it and it would likely come at a pretty penny. Do you have a ballpark estimate on how much such a commission would cost so I can get a general idea?

I'd ballpark around 50-100.00 from Martin? Just my guess. If you email him he could give you an exact quote.

Oh, that's not that bad at all. I may consider it in the future when my bank account has recovered a little bit for the previous months' purchases. I'll PM you since you seem to have the right connections. And pardon my ignorance, but I think I have knowingly only come across Martin's work only on a few occasions. I would want to see more and any Carno repaints to see how they turn out.

I'd keep an eye on his facebook page or DA account :

No doubt for that trex extraordinary

I was sad to see the Euoplacepholus not get love in the poll, it's one of my favorites, though I'm having a tougher time naming a favorite these days, the line is so cool.

[Dobber]

Does anyone know if the Apatosaurus and Camarasaurus vs. Allosaurus statues are relatively in scale with each other?

I think they are in similar scale. Actually, the Krent T. rex is also in similar scale to those two statues.

One of the main reason might be because not a lot of SSC Dinosauria fans actually own that one . I hope that a repaint version of it may be available sometime in the near future.

[Arul]

Have you ever seen this before ? Is this include to the new sideshow for 2015 or its just customed by someone ? I got it on Fb without any explanation by the thread starter...

[Dobber]

It's a limited edition repaint of the Mosasaurus statue. It's called the Amber Mosasaurus. SS sent me an email about it a few weeks ago. I think it's due out very soon.

Chris

[Arul]

Ohh okay. I prefer the old mosasaur but for the base i prefer the new one. Well sideshow mosasaur is very beauty its my favorite

[tyrantqueen]

It's nice but I prefer the old paint. The grey colouration made more sense for a large marine animal. It reminds me a lot of their Stegosaurus too.

The Sideshow Mosasaur "Amber" is a 400 worldwide limited edition and it's still available (  https://www.sideshowtoy.com/collectibles/dinosauria-mosasaur-amber-sideshow-collectibles-2003613/ ).
But I prefer the original paint scheme....   

[Arul]

Emm btw what is Amber actually means ? Hehe

Amber is a colour, in between yellow and orange. It also refers to fossilised tree resin. It looks like this:



I think the name of "Amber" is referring to the bright colour the artist chose for the paintjob. Also there is the connection of amber to the JP movies, where there was a mosquito trapped in amber.

[CityRaptor]

Yes, it looks amber in color. Isn't it also a female name? Great, now I clearly see this one as a girl.  If one has both Mosasaurs, they could make a dance of seadragons!

..or a heart-shape embrace.

I'm not sure which color I like better, though.

[CityRaptor]

Well, that is what I meant with a dance of seadragons. Ofcourse it would be rather expensive to do that.

[Arul]

Ohh so its a color name okay now i know thx
