Great job David! I'm really interested in a 1/40 Ekrixinatosaurus, so I hope to see the resin casts of that piece sometime soon. That last pic of the Giganotosaurus in your hand looks very detailed, especially for the size.

I have some frosted ultra details. Without painting them its hard to tell if the surface is different from regular detail. I do know that fingers, toes , teeth and spikes are crisp though.
I really need to line all my figures up and airbrush them all grey and take a decent picture.

I'll be making these new guys in 1/72 as well, but I'll need to put more detail in first. Here is a test version on 1/40 Bistahieversor- OK, that name is STILL hard to get out- in the basic white strong and flexible. Hollow, this costs around $30-$40, and too much of the detail is lost. The Detail material would make it twice as much. Looks like this one will be resin too. Attachments:

I was rather thinking the detail looks quite good for "White, Strong & Flexible" even the teeth seem to be complete and look sharp. And yes, comparison shots of the same model in different materials all sprayed flat grey would be a great help for everyone to decide which one to choose.

Will you be making the Bistahieversor in 1/144 scale too, David? It looks great!

Blade-of-the-Moons fate will be to be hit by a shrink ray and be crushed by tiny dinosaur toys...I'm just sayin'...;-)

Blade-of-the-Moons fate will be to be hit by a shrink ray and be crushed by tiny dinosaur toys...I'm just sayin'...;-) Actually this old gypsy once red my palm and told me one night, when the moon is full I would awaken and venture to the bathroom..but before I could make it I would fall and a mini T-Rex would go straight through my eye into my brain killing me dead. So I must resist the urge to buy minis..despite their teeny tiny beauty. I wonder what kind of paint that darn old woman used..my palm's still RED. :?

The models of David Krentz are so awesome, I like everything about them: the pose, the expression and of course the details !
I just ordered the Krentz models from Shapeways in ''Black Detail''. I wonder how they will look.
The White models are hard to photograph, if you want to show them in front of a white background.
To David: Will you release all of your Microsaurs also in scale 1:72 to enlarge your Antedeluvia collection?

Those look pretty nice. I should get them some time. Are there any plans for more Shapeways dinosaurs from this formation?

Andesaurus is the only other one I'll be doing from this formation. I'd like to start another formation now. Maybe an African one, or Chinese.
I probably will release the others in larger scales, I need to add more detail though.

I would speak for a Chinese formation, one with lots of feathered dinosaurs, but I guess these dinosaurs are to small for your Microsaur line.
How about some animals before dinosaurs ruled the earth?
But as long as you keep on doing your ''great'' models I'm happy. :-)

Of course. Why do you ask?
;D
It ought to have been 'destiny', rather than 'fate', but well... Nuance.

I'm also vouching for a Chinese formation, perhaps one from the Jurassic (with Mamenchisaurus and the like).

I HIGHLY doubt that Late Cretaceous Liaoning China is possible, since all of the dinos were way too small, like Microraptor.
Like DL said, Late Jurassic China would probably be much better, with dinos like Mamenchisaurus, as well as Yangchuanosaurus, Omeisaurus, Tuojiangosaurus, and Guanlong.
As for Africa, you can do Late Cretaceous North Africa with Spinosaurus, Carcharodontosaurus, Ouranosaurus, Kaprosuchus, and Nigersaurus.
All of those WOULD BE EPIC!
