Captain Cadence (Dinosaurs - 7/9/13)

That looks very menacing. Great job painting it.

Odd bit of snow there. Quite a regular shape. Can't be natural. 

On the other hand, the pompom and crew look great.

You've done a wonderful job on Cadence and crew, this thread is lots of fun to look at. 

Cheers!

That's because it's not snow, it's ash.


Here some new dinos that I painted up a bit ago. They are all made by Tamiya and dad took the pictures.

I'm glad it's not Captain Cadence in those jaws!

The good Captain lives too well to have that much mud stuck to his boots! 

Square ash pit? That neat? I think not!

Is that croc dining on pig without the blanket? I didn't know Tamiya made dinosaur models are the a set or individual kits?

They all came in one set called Mesozoic Creatures.

Thanks for the info.

they have sets, vignettes and the old single models. the vignettes come with a scenic base and a 1/35 scale human "explorer", some have very nice details. the old single models are based on older reconstructions, so there might be differences to the newer ones.
But this doesn't matter if you don't care about authenticity. 
it also means that theoretically, they are too big for 28mm, but again, who cares if you can seat a rider on a a velociraptor 

Edit: maybe I should have pointed out better that this was meant as a humorous careless note and as info and not as nitpicking. Please have your paleontological discussion somewhere else

I always enjoyed, shortly after the movie came out, critics saying the v-raptors were unnaturally big, and how Spielberg was a careless hack (your own call, of course) when, lo, someone discovered a super raptor that fit the size perfectly. 

'That's too big!' 'We're waiting for paleontological confirmation, from somebody, sometime...'

Mila had lots of fun painting these dinos. I think they're some of her favorites now. 

I think we'll have to oder more of the Tamiya 1/35 dino kits soon.



THANKS

Bobby Singer, one of the Cytherium miners, believed that camels would do best in the Venus landscape and brought a half dozen with him. These are his two favorites, Sam and Dean.
