Would the warlord games plastic zombie survivors help for the kids, they are quite nice and featured both a boy and female characters. Might be worth checking out. Cool project by the way, looking forward in seeing more!

The rules for warlords zombie game could work quite well if you replace the zombies with dinos and have ingen mercs vs dino survivors. (a little more lost world than Jurassic park tho.)
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

Most impressive!  Hammond is excellent and the paintjob finishes him off very nicely indeed.

Thank you so much for the tips! Definitely worth a look!
Some of the next things will be include sculpting the main door of the visitors center with its dinosaur skeletons. Hopefully my sculpting skills will be good enough for that  :D


UPDATE: 04th September: Dr Alan Grant
Here's the next one of the main characters, our popular archeologist. The original miniature is by Copplestone, converted and extended a bit with green stuff. Hope you like him!

Which one you wanna see next? Any wishes?  ;D

Cheers, Daniel

Another cracker.  The ferns on the bases are very nice too.

Thanks lads!

I already ordered miniatures for the next wave including IT nerd Dennis Nedry, lawyer Donald Gennaro, the hunter Robert Muldoon and his park staff. I hope to finish them very soon as well.

But it's slowly time for some dinosaurs, isn't it? ;D
I almost found most of suitable models for them but I'm still struggling to find a suitable miniature as a foundation for the laying Triceratops conversion. Any ideas or suggestions?

On the recommendation of some user I bought a copy of 1993s book "the making of Jurassic Park" and I have to say this is a real beauty. 195 pages full of illustration, concept art and photography. I would say: 100% Motivation!

Cheers,
Daniel

Maybe you could make the gaurds from the start of the film. When the load the raptors to there new pen.

for raptors you should look at the reaper ones.

I'm sure you already know about the toobs packs and the Schleich options.

There are also a load of characters from the various comics and the additional characters from the books and toys...Ed Regis being Rex bait for example...
