Velociraptor

I did my first one, because I wanted a Velociraptor fossil for myself after a family visit to a museum. First I wanted to buy a real Dino Skull, but real ones in this size are soooooo… expensive.

But I’m an artist with knowledge in science and making props for theater and movies for years, so I made my own. And one for a friend and then another one… and then my wife said, that maybe someone out there wants one too…

The base is made from German beech wood with multiple coats of oil, colored varnish and real violin chellac polish and messing brass rounds. On the underside are felt pad’s.

I’m working with movie and theater props professionally and I use real theater and movie techniques for wheatering the models for looking like old specimens.

The model you will get looks like the one in the photos, but can be a little bit different in some details, because I make and paint them by hand from my own forms. So everyone is unique and gets a number, date and will be signed under the base. I send you a picture of your own sculpture, when it’s ready for shipping.
