I want to see someone convert a raptor and use actual fluff and feathers to do it.

You don't want to use real feathers...unless you can figure a way to preserve them really well... I have a Velociraptor that had real feathers..about once a year I have to replace them because moth larvae eat them..I've sprayed and glued and it doesn't stop the little *%&# at all.

I used a putty sculpt that hardened after an hour. It is a really good material to use I like it alot.

It's called magic sculpt I use at work to fill in the spots were the dinosaur bone fragments have gone missing to make it look like it is a complete fossil.

Do you keep this velociraptor outside? |

I'll have to look it up JPRex... ;D No........ no Stoneage..this one is not kept outdoors...it's the same bugs that get in your clothes drawers and pantrys...you can use moth balls and or ceder to keep them out there..but on a dino sculpture..it's not feasible. All the trouble I have outside is with wasps trying to build nests in every thing...found a neat way to get rid of them...spray adhesive....poisons can take awhile t okill and somtimes they escape..sparying them with adhesive drop them out of the air and the more they fight the more it sticks..eventually it's a long slow painful ( I'm guessing ) death... serves the little stinging *&#% right... |
