Hello Deviliarh. I am very glad to see such wonderful photos. I love your creativity. Maybe show us interesting pictures with Apatosaurus, Allosaurus vs Camarosaurus, T-Rex vs Triceratops, Velociraptor vs Proto
Well it was painful but after a long weekend I was FINALLY able to open up the new repainted Spinosaurus. Overall I really like the paint pattern, and while I don't have the original release, I think it's an improvement from the prior version. Detail and paint application all look good though I would have liked a little more coloration in the fleshy part of the mouth and in the base. Though with regard to the base I'm a little biased since receiving the Mosasaur which has the best base/stand from this line so far.
Here are a few quick cell phone pictures. Please note I'm not a photographer by any means and had to take these in a hurry before running the kids off to another b-day party.
BTW - larger images can be found at my Flickr account.
Some pics of my spinosaurus, a little bit modified with light brown washings. Not perfect but better than before i think.
I got mine a couple weeks ago. It's pretty cool, but the colors are a bit muted compared to the product images on Sideshow's website.

TimO did a great job on his, but I don't think I have the skills to make it look anything like that. There's a chance I'd mess it up.

You can see the black points which start at the end of the jaws and then over the neck to the belly, there was nothing than these points. So i painted it with thin brown color, same with the head, the neck and the area under the sail (most of the body), the legs and a little bit on the arms. Maybe i should seal it with semi gloss clear coat because the painted areas are a little bit to shiny, but at the moment i´m ok with it.
It´s pretty simple, i am not a specialist in doing repaints but i thought it could only look better than before.
The allo vs. cama statue is no longer listed on SS so that's making me anxious to pull the trigger and secure a preorder on the other ones I need. I think I'm going for the Spino next, and then the Apatosaurus. Or maybe the other way around, I'm not sure...
