About to watch and if the words “curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal” are not used I will be slightly disappointed 😂😂😂

[@Kaucukovnik666]

9:10 That's not a triceratop. It's tricerabottom!

[@pluggothesluggo5509]

That actually made me chuckle a little tbb

[@nikolaosstavrou5327]

Doctor you can use plastic primer for bumpers for cars its clear and it can be used fpr pvc and vinil. Sorry for the grammar .

[@bartek_ewertowski]

I needed to do some gap filling on my Creature Caster Drakon's reptilian skin and this was super helpful! Great idea with the stamps!

[@lostonwallace1396]

There wouldn't have been a lot of grass around in the Cretaceous Era, according to the fossil records, but there's nothing wrong with taking some artistic license. I mean, there are dinos in D&D settings, and I'm certain those have grass.

[@flaviusclaudius7510]

If my players get magic, I can throw dinosaurs at them, it's only fair!

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Cooooollll!!!!!!

[@AceTheBathoundProductions]

Army Painter makes a good basing material and so does GW Citadel...

[@johnniefurious3513]

My son (11) and I love your videos, but he wanted to point out: grasses didn't really evolve until after the dinosaurs were extinct. So, these guys are probably in Jurassic Park or something.

[@EdwardDowner]

Those tufts don't have to be grasses though, plenty of plants that have either long thin leaves or long green stems and low to the ground. Horsetails (Equisetum spp.) and Whisk Ferns for instance. Hold it, turns out grasses are probably older than thought. There is evidence of grasses in the diet of dinosaurs www.newscientist.com/article/dn8336-fossil-dung-reveals-dinosaurs-did-graze-grass/

[@robertlloyd9654]

Looks great although there wouldn't have been any leaf litter on the ground in real life.

[@ieatvirgins]

It looks wonderful, as usual... but is the triceratops taking a nap or something? It doesn't look hurt at all! It would've been nice if a chunk of its side was bitten out.

[@ThePaintingClinic]

Likely a bit harder to sell to the kiddies if they did that.

[@ieatvirgins]

@@ThePaintingClinic lol, this is for kids???

[@ARTYCOATY]

I learned very much. Thanks for sharing.

[@markcollins9903]

Just finished a t rex repainted it thank you four your advice

[@markcollins9903]

Can i usw xf 65. Whermact army green tamya for the green

[@xfreedombuckO5x]

Would be cool to put a saurus oldblood rider on it for a serephon army.

[@randallnaylor6278]

How much would you charge to paint my trex

[@PHLewis1956ye1q9]

If you think the T-Rex is a handful, wait till you see the Spinosaurus kit, it makes the T-Rex look undernourished. So far, from this series of Pegasus kits, I've built and painted the Triceratops and it was a lot of fun. I have the T-Rex assembled, but I have to do some work on the seams before I can start painting. (Thanks for the tip about using an epoxy putty stamp, by the way.) I've yet to decide on how I'm going to handle the beast for painting, but I may do something similar to what you did. As for the Spinosaurus kit, it remains in the box and I'm hoping that coping with the size and weight of the T-Rex will give me some insights into how to handle the even bigger and heavier critter. I really like what you did with the animals' color scheme and the basing and I'm inspired to get back to work on my T-Rex. Thanks for the excellent video.

[@ThePaintingClinic]

Forgot to mention. Get metal pins as deep into the feet as you can. I hear it's prone to bending over time.

[@vitaliyrudiy9462]

I printed out a baby Triceratops in good quality. I'm peeking at who painted such a model

[@richardpezall384]

This looks really awesome, the only complaint I have is the inside of the mouth looks a little to purple, though it might just be the way the camera picks it up.

[@markcollins9903]

How much is it. In uk pounds im britidh

[@VazgShah79]

What king of paints do You use: water based, or oil based? And after coloring do You put a layer of varnish on the figure? If yes, what type of varnish is the best for such works? Please explain. I have an old crocodile figure, that has discolored places, but I don't know exactly what paints and varnish to use for recolor it. Please help me to find out.

[@markcollins9903]

Thank yiu

[@philRminiatures]

This is a creepy and beautifully painted T Rex, great colors and impressive technique!👌👌🦖🦖👌👌

[@TEKASHI-de1qt]

You never cease to impress me

[@StarFyreXXX]

if you varnish the model, can you use acrylic water based paints after/ on top of the oil wash?

[@ThePaintingClinic]

Yes.

[@horrido666]

Glad to see you tackle one of these vinyl Pegasus models. Wish you would have done the shark, though. That model is HOT.

[@Jbay2608]

Anyone know if this kit is still being made? As a lifelong T Rex fan I would love to paint one of these.

[@GamzaLive]

Always enjoy your style above other miniature painters. 10/10

[@jacksonholmes9955]

This reminds me of the toy rubber dinos that my parents bought me for Christmas as a kid. Those were awesome!

[@gregmounts7648]

beautiful work i have the same kit and i did mine the same way i love this sculpt but the weight is a problem

[@theGermanPrintingNerd]

HI Doc Looks absolute cool , other Question how much PSI do you use on your Airbrush and do you thin the Paint for Airbrush ?

[@ThePaintingClinic]

20-ish PSI. Depends on what paint I'm using if it needs to be thinned or not.

[@gekkoberry371]

Great job!!! I need one of these models myself. it's so fluffing cool.

[@TamarriceParker]

finally someone who makes an accurate tyrannosaurus rex

[@WilliamKuby]

looking good thare like it think you do not what smell vigen tharen see as post new

[@sulthon5753]

what paint do you use repaint custom?please

[@sonicimperium]

At first I thought you shit the bed on this one but you really nailed it by the end! 👌🏻 🦖

[@savinglivesofourown]

Beautifully done. I have two Land Rover 1/24 models from Revell that I've ruined. I'm going to place them wrecked in a diorama with this beast and salvage my amateurism hopefully with a striking build.

[@Jeff-cv4qn]

LOL good luck, hope your succesful.

[@joseluisnd75]

A huge project and a huge success. Great work pal.

[@Bobbyholland901]

Great work. Thank you for talking through the washes

[@billclarke5916]

what a great diorama, and I love your paint job.

[@leebarlow3911]

Truly awesome work looks stunning mate top job

[@oandreasson]

I really enjoyed this video as always, your work is most impressive. Speaking of shooting videos, I'm a bit curious about your setup. How do you mount the camera and what camera is it, and so forth? Basically, how do you shoot video while also working? 🙂

[@ThePaintingClinic]

It's a Sony CX-675 mounted on a modified drum kit mic stand.

[@TheBulKathos]

really wanted to see the eyes part! thanks for the video :)

[@paintalist4391]

Hi Dr. Faust, how do you apply the (matt?) varnish at the end? With a brush or with an airbrush? Great tutorial and a unique project. I enjoyed watching it.

[@ThePaintingClinic]

Vallejo Matt Varnish via airbrush. Then gloss for the mouth, eyes, etc.

[@tantill134]

You did a fantastic job on this one. Congrats

[@jarrettkozelisky8334]

What did you use again for the leaves? What were the actual leaves made from?

[@ThePaintingClinic]

It's from a type of tree that I forget the name. You can buy it pre-packed under the name "forest litter."

[@ruaridhmackenzie3215]

Great video again

[@aequanimus63247]

It looks great

[@GrantH2606]

Phenomenal

[@VikingFyre]

WOW! That is one imposing model! Reminds me of that old Christopher Reeves dinosaur documentary with the stop motion dinosaurs. You knocked this one out of the park!

[@horrido666]

A model this size? Likely an airbrush. Also, not all matte are created equal. In fact, many are semi glosses. Always test first.

[@VikingFyre]

Lucky 13 huh?

[@ThePaintingClinic]

What doc is that?

[@VikingFyre]

It’s just called “Dinosaur!” I wanna say it was released by FHE back in 89 or 90.

[@konamanstudio2447]

Cheers with a beer

[@drakemallard4459]

BEAUTIFUL!

[@NickSibz]

This is sick

[@StevoE26]

i know artistic license n all that but grass hadn't evolved yet at the time these animals were alive. its such a minor thing but it got on my nerves haha. great model otherwise :D
