2 Jurassic Park Horizon Velcociraptors

Hi guys,
I'm new here and really not sure how to use this site! Just wanted to share some pics of my 2 Horizon raptors which I built and painted myself.
I do have other models also.

Holy crap that looks great! Can you give us any insight into the creation process?

Yea well they are model kits produced in the 90s, recast from the original Stan Winston maquettes. I tracked down a pair and built them up.
I researched the paint job a lot as I wanted them to look true to the original animatronics design scheme. They are both hand painted with acrylics. Glass eyes added which I bought from an online retailer.
I'm pleased with the result. Glad you like it.

No the raptor is the only one I have.
Bought it when this came out because I found the raptor the best of the JP series from Horizon.
I must repair and repaint him one day.

I have a large T.rex, brachiosaurus and dilophosaurus. I'll try to post some pics sometime soon.
