Thanks Simon !

Yeah Joel I noticed it looked odd..need to see if that's just angle and lighting or if I really messed up....maybe it battle damage ? lol

Nah, it was painted without them before shipping..must have come off before the painter received it or something ?

I think the postal service as a whole and in any country doesn't really seem to care about things are handled. :/

Oh my..........ok, uh im sorry dude but that looks horrible, sorry. if you send it to me i will do them right for you for free,you just pay shipping. Eye lids didnt fall off is shipping ,lol, Steve never put any on, all he did was drill out the resin eyes ,put putty in then press the glass eye in place and neglected to sculpt the eye lids back on over the eye to make it look correct. This is why he has that big stare! look at the iguanodon and see how its supposed to look. Let me know if i can help.

Heh, that's cool Shane, the Iguanodon looks much better. At the moment I can't afford to ship him..and I'm a little afraid to to be honest, but maybe after tax returns I will...you'll have a devil of time removing it I daresay though..probably shouldn't have even tried to fix it, that marine grade epoxy I use is tough.

You know, this poor Allo just keeps hitting problems..ought to add a broken toe, some missing teeth and scars everywhere to reflect his " mis-adventures " hehe..

I fussed with that darn epoxy for over an hour..but my expertise is def not in smaller pieces lol give me 1/1 any day.. ;D

Beautiful paint job, Shane. Reminds me of my Apatosaurus, and that's a very good thing.

Shane, your painting skills are right up there with Steve's skills. In my opinion, that is. You both have amazing talent when it comes to painting these amazing kits. I know my Apatosaurus held her own with the rest of your kits at Wonderfest.


Now, if you don't mind, I'd like to hijack your thread once more, to post pics of your amazing paint jobs.


I'll start with Davids already amazing Shapeway sculpts, made even better with your paint apps.




Edmontosaurus
















Triceratops


















Ankylosaurus




















Now we have Shane's awesome Tarbosaurus vs Saurolophus predation scene diorama. This was also built and painted by Shane.....I think he may have even created the kit.












































I now return control of this thread over to Shane. ;D

I hope everyone enjoyed the pics, and I highly recommend Shane for any kit buildups/paintups. You won't be dissapointed.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

I have to agree..having seen Shane's paint work and Steve's I have a hard time even barely telling a difference. I'd say Shane is def right up there with him when it comes to building and painting.

That Tarbo kit looks great in the woods there..I think only the little plants on the base make look at all unrealistic with the background.

[dino84]

Wow, thats probably the best example of David's Saichania I've seen built up so far. It's a great little piece, mine was the first kit I'd completed in years and was a very easy build.
