diverse small Dioramas

[MIXVS MINIMAX]

Hihihi,

just some small Dioramas for my debut at the DinoToys.
Tenontosaurus, 1/72, D. Krentz




Corythosaurus, 1/72, D. Krentz



It needed some regaving at the feets and hands and remodelling, esp. at the crest.
Otherwise it looks more than a Hypacrosaurus.  The very nice Dinos by D.Krentz are often out of the vertical Axis.

Parasaurolophus, Tamiya, 1/72




Woolly rhinoceros (Coelodonta antiquitatis), Sean Cooper, 1/48



Somme remodelling at the second horn, snout and bottom of the foot

[ITewan]

Really nice! I particularly like the Coryhtosaurus.

[Gryphoceratops]

Very cool!  I like the tenontosaurus colors a lot especially.

[Totoro]

I think these look great ursusmajor!  I especially like the Parasaurolophus diorama. The woolly rhino seems to have been caught in an early season snow.  He seems a bit too "unscathed"...maybe you should consider giving him a dusting of snow on his (her?) back?     Too bad there's no way to add in jets of steam coming from his nostrils as he runs in the cold air! 

Anyway, inspiring work!

You thought about this?

Chalicotherium grande, Mr. Krentz, 1/72

Painting in Tapirstyle with single cutted leafs.

Really good modelling techniques on display here and we love the choice of the tapir colouration - inspired!

[Dinomike]

Really like the Parasaurolophus! The yellow stripe on its back is a great contrast to the greens in the diorama. Adding some snow on the back of that woolly rhino works great!

[MIXVS MINIMAX]

Hihihi,
after 5 months of modelling-abstinence, I finished now Mr. Krentz's 1/72 Triceratops.
The colouration is based on Bonteboks. The blooms of the flowers are really small blooms, collected in the nature.
Unfortunately I did not find a Triceratops there. :-)

I love the little flowers!

[CityRaptor]

All looks really nice. The Parasaurolophus however is indeed 1/35. It's a juvenile.

[MIXVS MINIMAX]

Thx!

@CityRaptor: Tamiya says the the Parasaurolophus is a juveline in 1/35. But because of the size and the shapes, ist for me an adult in 1/72 :-). And I sculpt a much stronger neck.

[MIXVS MINIMAX]

I was ultraproductive and so I could finish further 5 dinos  from Mr. Krentz's 1/72 collection.


Styracosaurus albertensis vs Achelousaurus horneri



Apatosaurus ajax



Tyrannosaurus rex stepping just in the flowers.



Afrovenator abakensis attacks Jobaria tiguidensis

and some weeks ago I finished:

Saichania chulsanensis walks in desert Gobi

[ITdactyl]

those bases.... (jaw drops and slides a few feet away)

...Let me just pick my jaw up...

there...

wow...

Are these handpainted?  Where'd you get those plants? What kind of paint do you use?

[MIXVS MINIMAX]

Once again I finished one more.
Gryposaurus, Krentz 1/72:

[MIXVS MINIMAX]

And wush, again another small Dino is finished. There are 3 dinos by D. Krentz left and after that I'll start with my own creatures.
But now: Utahraptor ostrommaysorum

I replaced the fingers and rebuilt the feets, which got new claws.

[Arul]

Woww so amazing i love diorama which is having a small size but HQ detail

[Tyto_Theropod]

These are awesome, especially when you realise how small they are! Do you mind me asking where you get your various plants?

[MIXVS MINIMAX]

The plants are either collected outside or printed, panted and cutted.

For the flowers I used the blooms of wild carrot.
I often look for small plants and nice moose, which could be used in a small diorama. There is a nice spiked moose, which looks in scale  quite mesozoic, but I have not been able to preserve ist. When it has no moisture, its folding itself with brutal force.
Oregano is good for the leaf of scrubs or low growing plants.

[Tyto_Theropod]

Thanks! I'll try preserved plants when I get round the project I'm thinking of
