New Jurassic Park Purchase: Baby Velociraptor

[allosaur176]

Hey guys

I just wanted to show off my newest JP ebay purchase.. As it is not an actual JP piece, it was inspired by the look of the original raptors, and is apparently a CG scan model for a Discovery Channel show...

It stands about 14" tall and the head, and about 24" long made of silicone.. It is currently attached to the wooden base, but once I get a display case for it, I'll be removing it and making a more appropriate base...

Great score, ebay I assume. I think I was watching that one just didn't have the cash...nice addition to your JP stuff. Good to see you ended up with it.

Cool raptor. Haven't seen one like it before. Did it come painted?

Careful, she bites. Lethal at 8 months.

Very nice score! Can't wait to see it after you redo the base.

Aw, no feathers?

Can it fetch your slippers?

 

[darkesword2020]

Wow man, can I ask where you got it?

It'd look sweet with feathers too by the way (IMO)

Awesome nonetheless mate!

Something that young would probably not have feathers but down. Also, since it seems to be based on the concept art for the juvenile Raptors in JP1 I think adding down would be wrong. Just my opinion. I would probably repaint the figure and change the eyes though, but that's just me

I'm satisfied with the paint job, being its keeping true to the original raptors, and was thinking about possibly replacing the eyes

Very nice score! Can't wait to see it after you redo the base.

I have a few idea's in mind, and will be getting a display case too!!!

That is an awesome find! Of course, if I had one of those creepy things it would invariably end up in unsuspected places to scare my friends..heh heh heh...

Looks very nice, although I must say anatomically it's not quite accurate.
Velociraptor had its palms facing inwards instead of down/backwards, sort of like this:

Well the JP raptors aren't anatomically correct to begin with, nor were they ever in Montana

Looks way cool, bro!

And btw, I hate feathers on Raptors. They're so much cooler looking without them.

Just found this thread whilst looking for pictures of baby raptor via google.
Very cute. Wish I had this little bugger.
