  1. Hello, may I know if this Psittacosaurus skeleton is real? The seller said it has no repair at all. Thank you!
  2. Hello, I know that this skull was already shown a few years ago on the forum and it had attracted rather negative comments but I don't remember it very well. I bought it 3-4 years ago, and I would like to know what you think about it. Of course I think there is some restoration (where? is it that bad?) I remember one member asking why one could buy such bad skulls while showing a Psittacosaurus skeleton of extraordinary beauty and purity, but very few people can actually buy this. So I would just like to have your opinion on the general quality of this skull, is it authentic? what is interesting about it? any horrible things visible? The detail I find interesting is that some teeth are visible. I imagine that the fact that the skull is deformed/crushed comes from the pressure of the rocks? I had asked a friend to try to remove the remains of gangues especially in the orifices but he told me that it is better to leave it like that because when he started, all the small bones were crumbling, it is too fragile to do that. Thank you in advance for your illuminating comments which I always read with great profit and pleasure,
  3. Hello I recently found this specimen of a presumed Psittacosaurus skull I have no knowledge about the authentication of this piece the seller claims the skull has restorations less than 10%

  5. I recently bought a Do It Yourself Psittacosaurus skeleton cast. And I thought it would be fun to share the process of mounting the skeleton. I already had a skeleton cast of a juvenile Psittacosaurus but now I also have an adult version! As it came painted, I could just have mounted it as is. But I wanted to give it a more interesting post rather than a a straight spine and tail. Since the spine and tail come in bundled segments of vertebrae. I thought I would cut them apart so that I could create curves better. And as I was modifying it anyway, I might as well improve it here and there as well. Some parts like the vertebral foramen on the vertebrae and some fenestra are filled in on the original cast. So I decided to dril some holes to make the details a bit more accurate. Size comparison with the adult and juvenile skeleton. The frame I made for the juvenile is pretty basic and primitive so I want to make a better and prettier mount for the big one. Drilling out the vertebral foramen in the middle and separating the vertebrae. Process of drilling holes and opening up the inside of the skull to more accurately reflect actual openings in a real skull. I'm not done smoothing out the new hole syet though. So right now it still looks quite ugly. More to come soon!
