Yes it does so the modeler has a choice to install them or not and it would effect the look of the model if you dont.

In case you missed it here is a pic of my Postosuchus that i did for Horst Bruckmann, he has the largest Dinosaur collection in Germany. I offer my painting services on any kit you might have so feel free to email me and ask for prices on something you might want me to paint for you. Some people dont know im a complete service studio ,they just think i sculpt Dinosaurs, but i do so much more than just that. I have painted more than 750 models over the years , thought i would share.

Any teasers of upcoming pieces Shane ?

You do some excellent paint work bud, one day I'll def have one painted up you personally... ;D

Beautiful paintwork on that Postosuchus Shane. I was fortunate enough to pick one of these up from a member on the Clubhouse, it's one I don't think I'll ever be parting with!

Huh? Alright, if anyone else wants to part with one of these (or even Shane's 1/18 Carnotaurus or 1/18 Pentaceratops), let me know right away!

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

There was a fellow I knew on Sideshow Freaks who wanted to sell one of Shane's 1/18 Carnos last year.

Doesn't look like he sold it : sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=92616&highlight=carnotaurus+foulkes

Thanks for the link, but I have just registered an account there, and so apparently I do not yet have sufficient privileges to view that page. I did see last May that someone posted Shane's Carnotaurus on ebay, while posting the ebay link on several forums. Unfortunately for me, it was sold by the time I found out. Do you know if the one on you above link is the same Carnotaurs?

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Bud, I've no idea. He offered it to me , but I was broke at the time. All I know is it doesn't look to have sold on the forum.

You might consider just waiting for him to remake them , I liked the original Baryonyx but I have a feeling that new 1/15 Bary that was mentioned will be even better !

Funny, I'm working on Shane's Carnotaurus right at the moment! If you are able to find one I'd suggest grabbing it as it's a really nice piece, though it's a bit of a pain to mount with just the three toes touching the ground.

Hmm, have you tried cutting the foot at the bend, then bending an old coat hanger wire so it would fit inside a drilled hole along the leg and toe (drilling straight up through the toes, then at a diagonal along the leg)? This worked great for me for Shane's 1/15 Allosaurus, and it's much bigger.

Blade, if you wouldn't mind asking that guy if he still has it for sale? ;D I don't know why Sideshow won't let me view that link, especially since I have four of their Dinosauria statues.

I ended up taking a slice out of the foot through the middle toe and sliding an old bent airbrush needle through. Although the needle is small it has quite a bit of strength in it!

I'll give it a go later today, I don't think Sideshow Freaks is an official forum..though SS is aware of it's existence.

Well, SS Freaks finally let me in, and I was able to determine that the one for sale was indeed the one that was sold on ebay. Bummer. I guess I'll post a want ad in the classifieds.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

I just found out from the guy today it sold, sorry . If I see another I'll let you know !

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Since receiving my Allosaurus something had bugged me, but I couldn't place it..yesterday I finally figured out what it was. The glass eyes. They looked huge ! lol I sat him here on the desk and looked at other photos..it looked like they were missing the " skin " over them that formed the eye lids. When you drill out the hole to place in taxidermy eyes you have resculpt the lids. There was a residue there, so It looked like they did originally , maybe it came off in shipping ? Anyway following that I attempted to sculpt them on myself and here are the results :

Before :




After :




What do you think ? ;D

Very nicely done, Blade - a 100% improvement...

[Joel]

The left eye looks a little too triangular. You should build it up a little more toward the rear, and then I think it will look like the right eye lid. Your mail carrier must be a careless jerk, seeing how your stuff comes in damaged from different people.
