Jurassic World Owen & Blue Pre Order Friday Dec 16th 12pm

Yeah the paint is pretty bad. I’m kind of shocked. Chronicle has never had anything this bad. If I heard correctly, they changed or are changing factories, so hopefully that’s a good sign. I have the LW male raptor bust paid off and it better turn out. I have faith in it because I think on a larger piece it’ll be easier to paint, but now I’m nervous. My JP female raptor bust is amazing, so...here’s hoping.

Big difference between paints changing and just a bad paint job.

Joke aside regarding my previous post about the paintjob... Let's be realistic, this is very complicated paintjob for both Owen and Blue. It takes serious effort to capture the likeness of the human at that scale and sometimes it's easier to paint bigger pieces.
However, what constantly keep surprising me is that with present technology of 3D scanning and printing, CC fails to deliver nice dinosaur sculpt. I've examined the prototype photos and this has nothing to do with bad casting. The model looks flat, it lacks skin texture. Damn, some smaller and cheaper toys have better texture

I have a $30 raptor figure from Rebor that looks way more accurate than this lol.

Here is the kind of painting you can get on a 30USD papo Trex

Here's a shot i took of my Papo Blue Raptor and Trex.



Are they the most amazing paints? No. But the Raptor was £6 ($10) & the Rex was £15 ($20) so are they the most amazing paints for their price range. Very much so YES.

Now compare this to the $400 Owen & Blue....

Wasn't the pachy one of the best painted pieces or something? Same factory as JP1 raptor bust? That's what people were saying.

The Pachy was beautiful, as is my female raptor bust. It’s unfortunate that they can’t seem to get that factory to perform consistently.

Well, no official response from Chronicle yet. No comments on this piece, no explaination, no apology, nothing.

I really wonder why Chronicle have courage to ship this $400 piece out like this without make things right first. If you see it comes out this bad, should improve/correct thing before shipping them put even if the release date will be postponed. (Some company will do)

This type of product hurt Chronicle’s reputation so hard and how can future customers trust what Rotunda Rex gonna turn out to be?

Thanks for making my statue becomes a joke lol.
