Very nice model / diorama, I once attempted something similar on a lost island in the 1930s theme using a Tamiya Stegosaurs and converted 1945 Volkstrum figures sadly I got sidetracked into painting it in greyscale with object source lighting and the project was never completed its in storage somewhere I think.

I'm 64. I grew up reading the Turok comics; they're a good part of why I came to love dinosaurs. This diorama is incredible. Martin is clearly extremely gifted. And one of the best things about this diorama is how clearly it shows the enormous size and presence of dinosaurs, even old school representations of a mid-sized dino. I think most people look at dinosaur toys and dioramas and tend to forget how massive these things really were.

Fantastic diorama and great concept! Brilliant, all the way around.

If you don't already know the work of Martin Garratt, I strongly suggest to visit his gallery:  8)

Wow this really tickles my Vintage bone.... what an awesome diorama! Mr. Garratt did a fantastic job! Is the corythosaurus an old aurora kit? The pose is really dynamic, plus with the added arrows looks like the animal is reeling in pain and about to rampage our heroes! Congrats on this model I bet you cant wait to have it in hand! :D

I knew of turok but never had read the comics, i was exposed to the videogames and toys in my teenage years. Ill have to read some of the comics they look hella inreresting!
I'm seeking Orsenigo and other interesting vintage dinosaurs. Contact me if you can help with my search!
