It's nice.

I'm probably crazy but I thought of fungus when I looked at its back

Not bad at all.  I'd like to see it with the mouth fully closed. Those big fangs Ceratosaurus has have to hang down just  a certain way so I'm curious to see it like that.

That could make for some good camouflage...

Laying in a bunch of downed trees...oh yeah would be like carrying it with you. Just don't leave the forest. lol

OK this is really funny, hahahahahaha ;D ;D ;D

Horridus

This is more like it. I'd be interested to know how the plate-like osteoderms match up with what's known about Ceratosaurus osteoderms, the arms may be a tiny tiny bit too long, and it probably should be labelled C. nasicornis, but other than those nitpicks, it's looking lovely. More like these please, Rebor! The base in particular is a great touch and means it will really look great when put on display. Give it a similar price to your existing figures, and you're on to a winner.

I've got to say, I was looking forward to seeing this one as I knew it would play to your strengths, and I'm not disappointed.  The head in particular is quite handsome.

I think it's a very interesting take on how the scutes may have been arranged, when there's no way of knowing how they were for sure, some artistic licence can make the creature very unique and interesting, to paraphrase Todd Marshall. I'm really looking forward to hearing your next announcement!

Personally I've got my heart set on a spinosaurid (Suchmimus or Baryonyx rather than spinosaurus) or a battle worn stegosaur...

Oh yeah, definitely. And one can suppose that different species may have had different arrangements.

[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"!?

Wow, nice one, REBOR! In the past I've been highly critical of your work, but I really like this one and will probably get it some time in the future. You've really outdone yourselves here (especially because Ceratosaurus probably wasn't feathered, but that's a different topic.)  Also, we've been in dire need of a new Ceratosaurus (the only decent ones at the moment are the WS and Kaiyodo), so it comes as great news that such a well-made one will be produced.

Megalosaurus

Amazing REBOR. I'll buy it too.
But please, time has come to give us an herbivore.
Sobreviviendo a la extinción!!!

It's nice to see another Ceratosaurus out there.In my opinion there can never be too many out there. ;D
There are just a couple issues I have with this one.The feet seem a bit too thick,and the arms are just a hair too big.Also,instead of the bony osteoderms that are known for both the type specimen and the larger specimen (sometimes refered to as C. dentisulcatus which may or may not be the same as C. nasicornis depending on who you ask) there seem to be rows of overlapping scales somewhat resembling crocodilian scutes in their place.I'm guessing it's just artistic licence on the sculptor's part.But those nit-picks aside,the model overall shows incredibly lifelike detail.The head in particular looks fantastic,capturing the form of it's skull perfectly.Overall nice effort.This is my favorite of Rebor's models so far. :)
Don't you hate it when you legitimately compliment someone's mustache and she gets angry with you?

ProSauropod

Communicates well the essential reptilian presence - will purchase (unless the colour scheme is a complete disaster) while we await the inevitable and much-desired sauropod from Rebor.  I repeat, the much-desired sauropod(s)  ;)

Meso-Cenozoic

Another very nicely detailed sculpt. I like a lot of what I see. I do also think the arms are a little too long. But the thing I'm mostly missing are the trademark elongated upper teeth. I realize the lips cover some portions of them. But I think because they're so long, more of the teeth are usually more visible in any depictions I've seen.


I'm also curious to see the mouth closed. A good portion of the upper teeth should be visibly seen hanging outside over the bottom jaw.
Here are two examples of what I mean. Both by very well researched paleoartists. Foulkes on the left and Rader on the right.

tanystropheus

Perhaps, this particular Ceratosaurus, "dentisulcatus" is known for having a different teeth configuration. "Dentisulcatus" translates to "furrowed teeth".

...I just noticed that the pose appears to be reminiscent of the Bullyland Giganotosaurus. Probably, coincidence.

Meso-Cenozoic

But "furrow" means "a long and narrow cut or line".

Ceratosaurus' two most distinctive features have always been his nose horn and his extra long teeth.

Here you can see the upper teeth of C. dentisulcatus are still depicted as being longer. And also as someone else and this article mentioned, this individual species might just be a fully grown C. nasicornis.
