All you need is a string of electric barbwire.

That might be an improvement i add later..would look great with a strobe and siren light that's triggered by a sensor.

Yes and you could set it up so that the figure is in the dark and then suddenly lit up.  There should also be a roaring sound. 

Stegotyranno420

i like the roaring idea, but maybe add those super deep vibrations that we know could had been made would highlight the extra science that goes into making these treasures.

I might could do some things for Dino Park in the Dark in June..but anything electric based would be a no-no unless I want to spend a grand or so getting power to that spot on a permanent basis. :/

 Our old buddy STAN here getting some botox or foam injections to remove the wrinkles in his face.

Repainted our Ankylosaurus in the park like Bumpy from Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous.   Wonder if I should update the Carnotaurus to Toro? lol

Wow, i completely missed the Updates on your Giganotosaurus. Really impressive work as always!

Painting a few of your Sculptures in the Colours of that show might make a lot of Kids happy. They see something they know from a show they like and having them in these colours doesn't make them inaccurate :-D

Thanks!  I've had a couple parents tell me how much they're kids liked seeing Bumpy. Cries of " It's Bumpy!" apparently were screamed at the top of their lungs lol

Pachyrhinosaurus update from Facebook :

Shonisaurus

Nice prototype of pachyrhinosaurus, by the way those gigantic figures are only made by you or with the help of another / other people? I don't know if I've asked you before.

Kids love color, especially familiar associations.

True.

Basic skin done on the Pachyrhino, eyes are temporary placeholders, waiting on my buddy to get them to me.  Lots of details to add, hopefully this weekend.

Hehe, i can imagine that quite well.

The Pachyrhino looks great. It is clearly a huge progress in your Work. The legs and the whole Bodywork is looking far from stiff or simple (Does that sound like its making sense? I was just comparing the Ankylosaurus and now this one in my Head. Especially the Legs. Huge Improvement!). It is an interesting overall Pose aswell.

I Know exactly what you mean! lol Yeah my first pieces did have their own issues, I try to improve with each piece somewhat. I wanted to do more relaxed poses like a real animal, I love theropods, hadrosaurs, ceratopsians, ect.. sitting or laying down probably something they did a lot of the time more than likely.  This was my first experiment with that idea.  It opened up some new challenges that's for sure.  The limbs had to be made before attaching but only to the knees and elbows. Then I had to sit it up and do the belly as once it's done it will be a huge pain to lift. I'm used to stages, whole thing cut out, whole thing wired, all poultry fencing applied, all skinned, not a bit here, bit there, lol   My poor Anky is yeah very rigid, I also based him on Carpenter's more oblong design.  I'm feeling the urge to do another ankylosaur, something bid and wide..not sure what yet.  Unless I just do an "adult" Ankylosaurus lol

Pachyrhinosaurus looking good.

Thanks!  I had the Battat years ago, so maybe some latent inspiration there.  I did use the Deluxe Collecta and Doug's for Safari.

So I had a bit of an issue Friday afternoon, at the time my aunt thought it was a heart attack and rushed me me an urgent care center. Pain and difficulty breathing landed me in the ER an overnight in the hospital via ambulance ride. As far as they could determine my lungs and heart were ok but maybe I pulled a muscle so bad it mimicked one causing so much pain I couldn't breathe, I'm at home taking meds and supposed to be taking it easy.  Apparently I do too much.  So a couple days later my version of taking it easy is to paint a dinosaur.
