It was the Tamiya 1/35 Brachiosaurus Diorama: If you think that's big, wait till someone does a kit of Argentinosaurus. To sort of quote Roy Scheider in Jaws, Stix will be saying "We're gonna need a bigger house"!! That aside, they all look very realistic. Acrylics?

Cheers John! - That would take a shed load of plastic and a very, very large box! They seem to keep digging up even bigger Dinos every year... Yes I used Humbrol acrylics all, of course, brush painted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Vale Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I liked these when you were working on them but they look incredible in the photos with backdrops. Really naturalistic. Top stuff! Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorby Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 These are great, I'm tempted myself to give them a go. I always seem to make a complete hash of decals, so maybe this the way to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Ford Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) I love these. Am so glad I decided to browse through a section I haven't been to before. Well done Mrs Plastix. Last time I made a model Dinosaur was back in the 70s. Takes me back Edited April 28, 2017 by Martin Ford Misspelled 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm beginning to understand what you mean about decals, I'm having a go at building AFVs and so far the decals have proved to be the most frustrating, you spend ages getting them just right and then catch them and they've gone...

Woodo79 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Been a while since I've been on here, thought I'd catch up on these as I enjoyed watching the WIPs. Your work continues to be amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really missing modelling the dinos, but have got involved with weird shaped AFVs for now... hope to get my T Rex diorama started sometime in Summer...

Gimme Shelter Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Hi Mrs P Long time no speak - my dinos got put on the back burner after a house move which prompted me over to a number of Star Wars builds in the sci-fi section of the forum - hope all is good - keep those prehistoric masterpieces of your coming Got myself my new man cave workshop all set up after the move over to Iver - a lovely snug man place with a telly and a heater and with a great woman on constant call out for T and biscuits just 20 paces from the cave door. Keep safe and model on - John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron NL-S Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Superb collection! There appears to be a real difference in sculpting quality between the series, but the painting is superb on all of them! The scenes are looking quite natural and convincing too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks, all brush painted of course, Stix's photography and backdrops make almost anything look good! 🦖 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
