No doubt the raptor's going to turn out beautiful, and glass eyes are really going to put it over the top. Is it comicon yet?

lol omg!! best comment ever!!

I don't want to be another one to rain on the parade, but the muzzle is bothering me, its too thin. I know this is straight from a mold, but it looks like SWS bumped it up on the animatronic. Here are a few examples.....



I know it might be a bit late for CC, but maybe for production it can be fixed? Or are my eyes tricking me? Also to let everyone know this is my grail piece besides maybe a Dilophosaurus bust, that's why i'm so intune with any issue i see. I'll probably be buying it anyway even if the issue isn't resolved, haha.

I believe it's all perspective with these raptors, I can duplicate that look.

Yeah, perspective is a lying jerk. You can tell how much it's messing with you just from the two different people Chronicle posted posing with the raptor.

Hi Paul, Ive got a question. I know nothing about casting or working with real world materials like you guys. Is it technically possible to flex or add a slight bend to the neck while maintaining the form and details of the original casting? Or would something like that require the neck to be completely resculpted? Just thinking if you did two different paint schemes would you be able to alter their poses but still keep the direct casting quality.

I'm hoping they offer a variant with the slightly opened month like the one in the lower picture.

[Chronicle CS]

Male from Lost world with the tiger stripes with slightly open mouth and the JP Female with an Open mouth are slated.

If it's not the bust you wanted, I'm sorry, this is what we are making.

Awesome, I will take one of each ;-)

Thank you so much for offering both options Paul!

[Bmaga123]

Will you be mounting the heads on a wall plaque similar to The Lost World T-Rex or on a stand of some sort? Thanks
