Compared to Hans, that's the biggest gerbil I've ever seen. ;D Okay, I'm hopped up on goofballs (or Nyquil)  |

Quite the nasty gerbil, no?
Maybe an R.O.U.S?

Cool model, it reminded me of the Wenzel design for Safari, what kind of colors do you have in mind?  |

It's 1 AM here, my nose has stopped running and I'm bored out of my mind; as I mentioned earlier, not tired. What do you insomniacs do? Updated facebook, checked sportsblogs, no porn; computer is in bedroom with sleeping wife. Nothing on TV. If I bring my precious dino resins out now the kids will just break them in the morning... |

I'd recommend adding feathers to the arms, it looks naked without them.
Raptor arms make a lot more sense with feathers when you look at how they bend.

What species is this?
We all know it is Velociraptor but i consider the day wasted if i don't add a JP joke into regular life.

Kuni: Yea, most likely not going to add feathers. While I subscribe to the feathered dinosaur theory I prefer them without.

Plus, it might be heresy to customize the very last of Trcic's raptor kits. The continents sink into the sea, etc.
So most of the odd ends were just normal bits of stray resin? I was worried about its condition the second it shipped off. Especially after the Denver incident. lol.

^^ Yea man, the kit is in fine shape. No damage except for a little chip out of the tail joint which is easily fixed with putty.

Good to hear. It does look gorgeous, especially with that trippy background ya got there. It's like something out of a dream.

Nah, you got every angle nicely. We just want to see it come to life with crazy purple stripes and magenta polka dots, right guys?

Pretty sure that's what Disney has in mind for Iron Man.

God creates dinosaurs...God destroys dinosaurs...God creates Trcic...Trcic destroys God...Trcic creates dinosaurs. (Sorry.) I agree that it could do with some feathers; it does look a little bald. On the other hand, as Dan said it might ruin an otherwise very fine model should it go wrong. On balance - probably best without them. I bet that the dromaeosaur in question is sorely regretting leaping artfully away from an easy lunch in the form of that Cretaceous mammal. |

Sorry guys, no protofuzz will be placed upon this guy. Otherwise TTL will activate the Schleich Torosaurus he sold me and it will seek and destroy ALL of my dino's that have protofuzz, including this awesome Dromeosaur.

Being new to this business I had to look the Schleich Torosaurus up to judge its appearance, and it's an ugly sod (if clearly based on a Sibbick drawing - one for the Paleoart thread!), so no feathers it is then! |

Never thought I'd see the day when a dromaeosaur would seem "naked" without a feathery integument. Makes one feel rather old.
