Blade-of-the-Moon's Art

Applying some Pachy skin...





Been told he looks like a football player... lol

Lookin' good, Blade! The pose is very lifelike and natural-looking.

[triceratops83]

Wow! Great Pachycephalosaurus.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Thanks guys! We're trying some new methods with these guys. Using a plywood frame instead of a ton of 2x4 inside them to reduce weight and make  a more natural look to them. We're also trying to use poles in the tail to balance them instead of the more obvious spot in the chest.  We tried this out first on the Carnotaurus we made a couple years ago and it seemed to work well.

Well we've decided to tackle the biggest project we ever conceived here at Backyard Terrors Dinosaur Park. A life size 1:1 scale Amphicoelias! That's our current T-REX in the pic below to show scale. The interior of this behemoth will house a dinosaur museum, new gift shop ( in partner with Walmart Corp.) , elevator to viewing area in head, dining terrace with view of the park, 4 star restaurant, climbing walls/swimming pools in the legs, zipline down the neck, and best of all a motel sponsored by Microtel in the tail section! This one is going to take a lot of donations friends!

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Actually this gave me the inspiration years ago :

[laticauda]

That would be amazing, it's a shame this was just an April Fool's joke.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

I started writing and it all just sort of fell into place...lol  If ever someone wanted to donate enough to let us build it I would certainly consider the project..but it would take a corporation the likes of Walmart or some such to do it I'm afraid.  I can't eve afford to rent a crane long enough to build an adult Brachiosaur. eh well.

Edmontosaurus head work :

[triceratops83]

Nice head sculpt. Have you decided on a pose for the Edmontosaurus?

Yeah I think all fours maybe sniffing or browsing the ground? Maybe just looking at the viewer?

I'll be starting on it's body or the Therizinosaur's after I get the Ceratosaurus ready for vinyl work/skinning.

I also started working on a mated pair of Oviraptors :

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Our local news reporter Jim Conrad did so much for us, was always right there to film our newest dinosaur so we named our Mosasaur "Conrad" :

[Pachyrhinosaurus]

You're certainly going to be busy! Its nice to see such a variety of species. Oviraptors are looking good so far.

[DinoLord]

Too bad they insisted on calling a mosasaur a dinosaur...
