Robin - Goodfellow's Collection ( Collection "Tour" from page 113 )

[Bokisaurus]

Nice! As cool as the videos are, I'm more looking forward to your photos, your photos are a just beautiful and so fun to look at.
But I see the appeal of some type of video formats.😃

[Duna]

I really like the videos. I don't mind them not inserted because I normally go to your album to see the pictures, too.

New Acquisition


On January 2020 the incredible M-See (one of my favorite world' paleoartist) presented his Elasmotherium.
I was really tempted by that wonderful diorama.
Unluckily it was too big at 1:20 for my last cabinets so it was a pass for me... 




After that M-See re-released the diorama at 1:35: I cannot resist 


So here it is:  M-See 1:35 Elasmotherium
                     (painted by Michael Kampa)




Here the VIDEO presentation about M-See diorama: https://flic.kr/p/2m9H2pN




.. I hope you'll like it...

I found the videos helpful. They give an excellent 3D impression of each model. It's more like seeing something in a physical shop. But I don't want them to replace your photos. I enjoy the artistry of how you play with light, colour and space.

I fully agree with Ceratopsian! I really enjoy this thread due to your amazing photos! But your videos are cool as well! Thanks

[ceratopsian]

I'm always pleased when a very large model can also be obtained in a smaller scale.  The Elasmotherium is a beautiful piece.

[RobinGoodfellow]

..in the meantime I realized that my last videos could be a bit boring.. 

So I tried to add some cinematic spices to my presentations..


Here it is my new VIDEO for  Sean Cooper (1:10) Machairodus Hunting Pliohippus / Painted by Martin Garratt :

Well, that woke me up!🤣 definitely adds a sense of thrill and anticipation and worked perfectly with the subject.
If you're going to do more mini video, yeah, add soundtrack to make it really pop and grab the attention.😃

[ceratopsian]

This video was much less clinical.  I liked the richness of the blue "sky" and the effect of cutting in to focus on one particular part of the diorama and then drawing back again.  The music also added to the effect very well.  I experienced a bit of buffering, but not too bad!

And of course it is a wonderful model - I particularly enjoyed the close-up of the underside of Machairodus's paw - such beautiful detail.

New Acquisition


..I've always been curious about Recur Velociraptor ( Recur called it "Velocisaurus"  ).

It's a really big vinyl soft model.
For sure it's not accurate but also it's extremely eye-catching on the shelf (due to its gigantic size, of course) .. 

Here it is:

[Shonisaurus]

Nice figure, I always thought that the velociraptor shown from Recur was excessively large and I did not buy it at the time, I see that I was not wrong. Thanks for sharing and my congratulations on your new acquisition.

[Bokisaurus]

It's an interesting figure that I actually saw in person once but didn't get it due to the price and size🤣

About size, yes, it's big..
I found it discounted on Amazon Italy so I ordered.
It's more a toy than a model so it will stay over my cabinets, in the JP/JW section. 
( B @Bokisaurus )  I really, really liked your review about PNSO Wilson: finally something new, positive and different from usual reviews. Congratulations

As usual, August it's time for some vacations here.
This year was quite hard so I think everyone deserves some rest. 
Next week I'll go to my beloved Sardegna (Sardinia). 



We will see again in September.

In the meantime I did some reservations.
The main one was from Urzeitshop:  1:10 Arctodus (Short Faced Bear) vs. Clovis Hunter diorama / sculpted by Shane Foulkes and painted by Martin Garratt.
I'll see it in September when I'll go back home..
Here a preview:






It will greatly stand near M-See Elasmotherium:


Kind Regards to all of you..

I am not really into Prehistoric mammals, but man those models look gorgeous! Especially Elasmotherium! Congratulations Robin, again some lovely photos.

[ceratopsian]

It will display well with the Elasmotherium.  Enjoy Sardinia!

[Shonisaurus]

In my case I really like prehistoric mammals almost as much as dinosaurs, the arctodus simus is a spectacular prehistoric bear, as tall as a basketball court. Magnificent figures. My congratulations, Robin.

[Kapitaenosavrvs]

Have a great time on Sardinia! Hopefully there is not as extreme Weather as in the Rest of central Europe right now.

I am also not that much into Mammals, but a great Photograph can still look wonderful. I love the looks of the Elasmotherium. Exactly what i love about small Diorama bases. It has a life like Atmosphere. Lovely.

I wonder, if you ever considered to do outdoor Shots with Figures (Or new ones). There are a lot of People that do such things, but with different approaches and styles. I wonder, what it would look like, if you did some. But i could absolutely understand, if that is nothing you would want to do. I am just curious.

[RobinGoodfellow]

..well, in my photography I like to have a full control about lights and it's simply too time-consuming on outdoor ..

Thanks to all of you.
We will see soon..

Regards

[Bokisaurus]

Well good for you, have a fantastic, relaxing  and safe vacation! Do post photos of the place when you get back😃

And thank you, glad you enjoyed the Wilson review 😃

[RobinGoodfellow]

..too much time is passed from my last post here.. 

I was really busy with work and now I am currently busy renovating my home so..  no time for new pictures..
Despite of that I have tons of new figures to show on this thread.
We will see..

By now, just two unusual flying reptiles I recently bought.

The first one is Hamipterus tianshanensis .
It's from an unknown brand from China:



To be honest, I think it could be an Hamipterus from these pictures by chinese artist Chuang Zhao (the figure has not an official name..):





The second one is Kepodactylus (1:10).
It's sculpted by Han Xiao (Black Horse Studio) and painted by Michael Kampa, from my beloved Urzeitshop web-store:








What do you think?

See you soon 

[Halichoeres]

The Kepodactylus is really nice.

I've seen the mystery pterosaur on AliExpress but I hesitated because it seemed to be mixed in with a lot of knockoffs. But it does seem to be an original figure, even if it might owe some of its design elements to Zhao's artwork.
