    Table decorations.

    I desided to try couple marine reptile models. I had some troubles with first one, but I tried to fix them with the second ones. First one Following ones with more straight posture and skipped teeth. Need more practise with paint job and better color selection.

    Neogene ungulates

    Hello again. I have been tinkering with 3d scans again. Using a camel skull and llama body from the idaho virtualization lab via sketchfab, Itried to recreate Syndyoceras, a protoceratid. I am quite happy with the skull and do actually have not much of an idea about the postcranial skeleton. At the moment its a flattened llama minus some neck. I think the feet should be four-toed, but I didn´t find good references for the size and shape. What do you think? Any suggestions to make it more accurate? I added tags for some other herbivore mammals I plan to build over time because I think I cannot add new tags once I started a topic. Thanks, J

    Somewhat fishy

    Ahoi, I just finished a model of Dunkleosteus the lazy way, because I don´t have that much time these days. Lazy way means: Skull is a bought model from kaiyodo dinotales, postcranial is a skeletal drawing by Scott Hartmann I modified slightly and printed on some transparent foil. Like the outcome. It is quite small though, only 15 cm, representing a meager 3m in my chosen scale. can anyone tell what the other two are? both recent species, one handmade after a photograph, the other 3d printed from ct data. As I don´t know if I can add tags after posting , I just added the ones I may put in this thread if I ever find the time to build them. After all my Whales, other marine Mammals , Birds and Reptiles I thought it would be nice if I could include some more Reptiles and "Amphibians" (?) If it crossed the border between land and sea, its likeness shall be built by me -some day. -Placodus -Cyamodus -Mastodonsaurus -Tiktaalik -Ichthyostega -Diplocaulus Aloha, J
  4. A revisit to my Mini museum of prehistoric animals. Just added a nice metal model of a stegosaurus that MrsR got me for Christmas (she completed it, as she loves making them). All the fossils here are from Hell Creek except a small bit of dinosaur eggshell from Two Medicine Formation. A lot of the fossils are from winning the Grand Christmas Auction 2017 , it goes to show how much enjoyment I am still getting from this lot. Top floor Richardoestesia isosceles , Thescelosaurus tooth, Turtle bones , Montana Croc Teeth Mummified skin Hadrosaur species, from the Low- Upper Cretaceous of Judas River, Montana, USA. With some nice raised ellipsoid scales intact. dinosaur eggshell. Floor 1 Nanotyrannus lancensis tooth , Tyrannosaurid indet, T-rex tooth and tooth tip, Ceratopsian indet could be triceratops. Myledaphus tooth, Garfish scale and vertebra, Bottom Floor Edmontosaurus annectens teeth, toe and finger bones. Hope you will enjoy this tiny collection in a bell jar. Happy New Year. Bobby
  5. I sculpt scale model dinosaur skulls (and more) on a popular 3D printing service. I put a lot of research and effort into getting these as accurate as I can. These are my personal copies, painted in acrylic with D.I.Y stands.

    Some paint added

    Aloha. here are two 3d printed models I showed before. The Turtle is selfmade, the Spino not so. I took the time to paint them and quite like the result. Pondered to give the Spino the reddish colour one often sees with fossils from kem kem, but decided rather to colour the "matrix", which is in fact a piece of treebark. Best regards, Jan
  7. Ahoi. Another marine tetrapod. To be perfectly clear, This is a commercially bought Model which I changed to my ideas.Like my marine sloth and most of my dino- and other saurian ,models, but not my whales. I ordered the model from geoworld because some of the line had been quite nice. When I first saw it I didn´t think I could make something for my collection out of it. Tried it anyway. Because of the size in my chosen scale of 1/20 I decided to model it on Platecarpus, although I don´t claim to be accurate to even genus level. It´s just the medium sized Mosasaur to go with my whales and other seacritters. The flippers may need further detailwork. But for now I am content with the result. The base is a recent tuna vert by the way. Aloha!

    Some marine non-whales

    Three models, three very different animals, three methods: Anomalocaris, sculpted in fimo according to fossil drawings, 6 cm long Hesperornis, digitally distorted from a recent bird skeleton and Tyrannosaurus skull, 3d printed, 9cm long. Hydrodamalis, skull digitally distorted from a dog skull, postcranial plywood and putty like my whales, 38 cm. Aloha J

    Pterosaurs

    Hello again. After a great holiday full of colourful dinosaurs (avian ones) I am back home and playing with 3d- models. Pteranodon skull is a print of P360 s model on sketchfab. yellow parts are rebuild in epoxy putty, brown ones are from a geoworld model. Tapejara skull is 3dprinted from Igor Novis´ 3d model on thingiverse, Nyctosaurus, Dsungarypterus and Anhanguera are 3d-modeld by me, using mostly drawings by Mark Witton as reference. What do you think? Aloha J What do you think?
  10. I've been seeing the word bauplan a lot in literature, and I can’t find a definition that has a different meaning than bodyplan. Is there a difference? Or is this just technical jargon?

    Walcott Quarry Vauxia gracilenta

    Six years ago I got the chance to visit the Walcott Quarry (see my longer post on this adventure in fossil trips) and while there I found this specimen of Vauxia gracilenta. Ever since I've wanted to make it part of my collection somehow, so this year for my birthday I decided to have a life reconstruction commissioned. Having seen the other fantastically detailed Cambrian models produced by @thorst, I asked him if he would be willing to reconstruct and 3D print the sponge. I drew an interpretation of the fossil and in no time he had it completed. A huge thank you for helping me make this possible. The level of detail in the model is incredible and you can clearly tell side by side that It's the same Vauxia that I found back in 2015. As soon a I have a proper fossil shelf it will have pride of place. Benton

    Pikaia vignette

    Hi, here is probably my last (physical) model of this year: A small vignette in life scale depicting two Pikaia gracilens swimming along three small Hazelia delicatula sponges. This scene could have happened about 520 million years ago in the Cambrian. The parts are again printed from clear resin on an Anycubic Photon Mono X at 50µm resolution. Each Pikaia consists of two parts, which allows to print the inner organs and the segmented (muscular?) structure on the inside while keeping the outside smooth. If you want to print your own, I have uploaded the .stl-files at thingiverse Cheers, Thorsten

    Kylinxia zhangi

    Hi, it's time for the next 3d-printed animal from the Cambrian: Kylinxia zhangi. It was described only about a month ago (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2883-7) and features Anomalocaris-like frontal appendages and Opabinia-like eyes on an early arthropod body. The model in 1:1 scale is only about 6cm long. The legs, while considerable thickened to allow printing, are still only about 1/3rd of a millimetre in diameter. It was printed on an Anycubic Photon Mono X at a resolution of 50µm from transparent resin and painted using an airbrush with highly thinned paint, such that the result is still translucent. The files for printing can be downloaded here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4679914 Hope you like it! Cheers, Thorsten
  14. Theres no way I'm the only one, but I think a fossil display with models incorporated take display and immersion to the next level. The creature alongside the evidence it left behind, makes such museum like feel in appearance and enhances the appreciation and wonder. Heres a thread to post any fossils you have on display alongside a model, statue, or toy. Here is a display from my collection of one of my favorite prehistoric creatures postosuchus alongside a giant 10inch+ chirotherium pos/neg footprint.
  15. As I keep digging through the literal tons of old geology and earth science supplies in the store room, I came across a large box full of about 30 of these old Ward's Science Education fossil sorting kits. They are all injection molded plastic, and were pretty boring. The boss told me to "throw.that.junk.out. NOW." which of course means I loaded the entire box into my backpack. Legitimate salvage is legitimate salvage. Anyway, in preparation for turning many of our replica casts and such into display pieces for teaching (and to make the earth sciences lab look cool...I decided to paint a few up. I'm pleased with the results. However, my matte finish sealer decided to go glossy due to a heavy hand on my part, but that is why I'm dusting off the skills on cheap junk before I get into the hardcore stuff. It looks like my dream of an ammonite hatband will become reality eventually, as these plastic models are much lighter and more durable than a ring of rocks around my Kakadu... Note: I may haze snuck a real fossil in here and there just for comparison.
  16. Hi dear forumers. Need you help. May be some of you have a proper experience in printing 3d models of fossils. The great task appeared in my path. I trying to make a paleontology museum in my town. Our family have a more than 20 years of experience in paleohunting an we dream about showing to people what a beautyful and unique ancient creatures have been living here, near our home. And we want to show how interestin is our sciense: paleontology. We have a thousands of fossils of all systems from middle jurassic series, all of cretaceous systems to miocene series, in 300km zone aroun our city. The pearl of our collection: fragment of lower mosasaurus jaw. But not everybody can imagine how great that sea monster was. And in my brain births an idea to print a full scale mosasaurus skull. So may be some of you have such experience and can help me with hints and solutions about this problem. May be you know a proper link. The links that i found in web aren`t free. I haven`t much money, and i scear about resolution of virtual model and quality of printing. Also may be some of you know where to dind a good resolution photo of masasaurus scull. Thanks everybody for help.

    Dinosaur Postures

    After the satisfying outcome of my sloth-experiment (changing geoworld megatherium to Thalassocnus) I took another look at some older dinosaur models. Sauropoda- Giraffatitan: "Edutoys Brachiosaurus", added teeth and one cervical vertebra to give him a more erect pose, Changed cervical ribs from medial "monorib". changed leg pose. Thyreophora- Stegosaurus: Glencoe models , changed tail and thagomizer to more modern pose Ceratopsia- Triceratops: Kaiyodo "Wild rush" gave him a treetrunk to look over. Ornithopoda- Parasaurolophus: Geoworld, drilled out intercostal plastik. painted it. Theropoda- Spinosaurus: had it 3d printed. I wonder if I should give it a swimming pose, what do you think?

    Guess the Origami Fossil

    My preferred medium of artistic representation, origami. Can you guess the animal it’s going to become? Here is the base (the initial form) and a picture a little further on with the legs of a Cretaceous creature I’ve started folding from a 24cm square of paper. The model design for this one isn’t mine, but I have designed a model before and hopefully will make some more of my own in the future. Hopefully the finished model will grace my shelf when I finally find one of these in fossil form. I hope you all enjoy, Benton

    Spinosaurus gift

    I thought I would share this. A gift for my 6-year old nephew's birthday. An amazing Spinosaurus model/toy with working jaw, highly detailed, and an actual Spino fossil tooth, approx. 150 myo. I know if I were a 6 year old crazy about dinosaurs, which I was, and still am, would go berserk over this gift. I almost want to keep them for myself, haha. and Happy Mothers Day to all of the moms out there! KP
  20. Hiya - I'm wondering if anyone can help me fill in the missing areas of my ichthyosaur sculpt? It's an attempt at an ichthyosaurus breviceps skull but I just can't find any photos / diagrams that give me the information / confidence to complete the back. Any help would be really appreciated! many thanks!

    Model Anomalocaris

    From the album: Anomalocaris and friends.

    This is a great (not quite accurate) model of an Anomalocaris that I got for Xmas. Now when visitors ask "what's that smudge on that rock?", instead of pulling up a pic I can simply show them the model.
