Gimme Shelter Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Completed last year as a diorama project, here are 7 of the Tamiya 1/35 scale educational box sets of their Brachiosaur and baby models. I've added a number of additional babies to the model. With no idea what colour these beasts would have looked like, I chose to use a few flamboyant bright colours for the males and basic reptilian shades for their ladies. The tree is from the CollectA Tree Series and added really only for scale purposes. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianMF Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Wonderful painting and animation for your dinosaur family day out! Beautiful base too. It’s the closest thing I’m going to get to a trip to the museum right now... Regards, Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatfingers Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Superb job. A lot of work must have gone into that and really like how you've varied the colours on each of the dino's. Truly worthy of a place in a museum and i imagine its quite a size too! 👍 Regards, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 That's a lovely dio. My son used to be dino obsessed, and he's here now appreciating it over my shoulder We need a can of beans or a banan for scale though. Looks BIG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamiya provide 2 jaw options and 2 front leg pose options however I had to rework, cut and shut a few of the limbs and do some neck surgery on a few of the Brachs to get the end result. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanC Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Apologies for the late reply, but I've just come across this and been blown away! A work of art. It needs a wider audience for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
