Outstanding!

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, also are remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. - Douglas Adams, Last Chance to See

Great paint job! I like the spattering on the head and arms. Looks great.

Start the day with a smile and get it over with.

Opalised fossils are the best: a wonderful mix between paleontology and mineralogy!

 

Q. Where do dinosaurs study?

Just saw this, the two critters look fantastic.

What are the head and tentacles of them made up of?

Thx,
