Plesiosaur upgraded

Recommended Posts

Same Story again, looking whart i can make of a bought model that has been around for some time.

 

 

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.

Trying it anyway.

Scaled size and approximate proportions of Futabasaurus, not reallyenough detail to tell.

 

Aloha

Hi there, that´s a lot of popcorn!

And plesiosaurs didn´t even appear in Jurassic park!

updatet.

Done except for minor details.

I am not perfectly happy with the ribs that I carved from the original  one-piece-ribcage.

But as Plesiosaurs had relatively thick ribs I thought these might fit better than the wire I used on the mosasaur.

Ahoi,

I got lazy and simply put the Pliosaur skull (Liopleurodon) next to the Plesiosaur instead of building a new postcranial.

On the other hand it saves room and at least i made the skull completely from scratch (i.e. carving foam, fimo and toothpics.) Like the result.

 

Aloha
