I have always been a fan of the film Jurassic Park and dinosaurs, so I could not resist building a few props inspired by both!
Below you can see all of my Jurassic themed builds so far.
LONGCLAW SWORD
This full size replica of the Compsognathus from Jurassic Park 2 - The Lost World is something that I had wanted to build for a long time. It looks great on my display and even had the opportunity to have a photo shoot with it and the Jurassic Park Jeep. Once placed on a grassy surface it blends in and looks realistic.
DRAGON EGGS
This full size Velociraptor bust based on the likeness of the Velociraptor from Jurassic Park was designed to be placed flat against a wall, giving the effect that the Velociraptor is appearing from the tall grasses. With over 20,000 hand carved scales and realistic hand painted bodywork this is one my favourite builds so far and receives a lot of attention when on display.
HATCHING DINOSAUR EGG
Having built dino eggs before, I wanted to build something a bit more challenging. I chose to build a baby Velociraptor hatching from an egg, inspired by Blue from Jurassic World. It was an interesting build to do having to do the bottom section of the egg then build the baby Velociraptor in one half before adding the top section of the egg shell and sealing, painting and texturing to finish.
SWORD MOUNT
What better way to display all of my dinosaur themed creations with a large Jurassic Park sign. The sign stands at approx. 1.5 metres tall on its stand and has a textured finish to give it the full effect.
