Dan's Dinosaurs [ DTF Exclusive Offers ]

[Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus]

In those pictures, the Rex looked simply awful! Paint job, weird smoothness, etc. Is it better in real life?

Just because the detail is not intense it doesn't mean it's a bad piece.The detail is slight,just like all the Carnegies.Nice paintjob,though still a little improvable.Great Pachyrhinosaurus as well 
Now,I'd like to see pics of the Monolophosaurus and the ammonite if possible.

No, this is not just about the paint job. Carnegie was lazy this year-one piece, and from the way the pictures look, this one is leagues away from the Giganotosaurus and the Miragaia, both of which are beautiful in pictures and even more so in real life.

Actually, at the scale the model is sculpted in, the smoothness is accurate- the scales are so fine that you wouldn't be able to see most of them. But I agree, the paintjob isn't great.

I'm wondering if they were rushed to get this one out ?

I wonder how long until the 2014 Dan's Dinosaur?
Looking forward to it!

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Hmm...this month ?

I don't understand why is the Megalodon the most expensive figure of the new Wild Safari figures(?)

Well it is about the size of the new T-Rex in the Carnegie line..maybe that has something to do with it.  Though it's still just a Great White to me..

Hopefully big enough to show off Andrew's considerable talent

I would hazard a guess at 1:40 .  Might have to add this to my growing list.

So excited to see it revealed finally (Over on Facebook at least.  I'm sure Dan will update it soon over here as well)! You cannot believe how pumped I was when Dan contacted me asking if I'd be interested in turning the T. rex into a resin kit. I couldn't say much more about it until Dan was able to reveal it for his store, but I figured a fair few of you would figure out why I wasn't saying much besides "Something cool is happening with this model."

I haven't had a chance yet to get my own copy of the kit, but the photos I've seen of the master and Martin's buildup look gorgeous. Whoever Dan contracted for the 3D printing services really hit it out the park, because they caught so much of the fine detail in the model.  It really is outstanding.

Blade, you're correct it will be 1:40, and *should* be about the same size as Krentz's T. rex proportionally speaking.

The Tyrannosaurus did get revealed, but the post was deleted because of a hiccup in the maintenance.  Now that the chaos that followed in the wake of the forum going down has subsided, let us admire this magnificent kit and regale Gorgonzola with words of admiration

[postsaurischian]

  Great model, lovely pose !

[Simon]

It would make a great companion to the Krentz TRex.  Personally I think that the feet and legs are more accurate (thicker) than the Krentz rex, which has small-ish feet ...

[Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus]

Awesome model! So excited.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Looks so awesome ! I saw it on FB friday, had I the money I would nab it right now..but I already owe Dan and Martin a bit..lol

[amargasaurus cazaui]

Congratulations to Gorgonzola, for a model well done. I had hoped the new exclusive might be something new and unique though, as the market is saturated with Tyrannosaurs rex models already....perhaps next time. It is a gorgeous piece , wtg Andrew.

[Brachiosaurus]

Is it the Megalodon thats 1/40 scale or something else
