I'm not too big a fan of this model (it's mostly the head...) but what you've done with it is wonderful.

Maybe Horridus referred to the hands. I really like your paintjob!

do you mean anatomic mistakes? Yeah, the hands and the head (which is a bit deformed) mostly. But your buildup is excellent. Makes me like it a lot more!

Wonderful job! To me the Dinoland Allo is of course no "minor matter" . And to its excuse Marc, we must consider the fact that the figure was made about 20 years ago and compared to others, was even ahead of its time . Of course we didn't know anything about Kaiyodo back then (maybe I have to explain to younger members that there was no internet ;D). If I could have seen one in the early 90s I would have gone mad!!!

Wonderful work! To me the Dinoland Allo is of course no "minor matter" . Is this the blue vinyl Kaiyodo Allosaurus? I hardly recognised it! Though that may be because I took only one look at it upon receipt and shut it back in its box again because there's no room...

Wow, this is fantastic, very nice work. I find myself as fascinated by the plants in these dioramas as the dinosaurs many times, and I like the little cones you used for our small cycads or whatever plant that is. Are those something like female alder cones/catkins (which I've thought about trying)? You know, I wondered about whether there might be some interest in a group share of local plant material. For example, here in the PNW there are things like native Spiraea inflorescence and small hemlock cones that can be useful in dioramas, but it's boring to keep using the same stuff just because it's all that is available locally. It'd be kind of fun to all be looking for natural materials in our own "backyards" and post pictures of them - provided we were able to harvest a reasonable crop on request to share with other diorama builders. Just a thought. The rock also seems very well placed and integrated into the scene. Is it natural, or artificial? If the latter, you did an amazing job, and if the former, you have made a diorama that will absolutely not blow away! Anyway, let's see more!! ;D

puh, for this answer i need later a translation book or my girlfriend helpes me... thanks for feedback! The rock is an plaster piece, which i cast from an "original" stone. the original rock is to heavy to use this on the diorama. i often collect in the woods stone and plants and roots...
