in #art6 years ago (edited)

hello!

here is the finished cyborg dinosaur stomping through the swamp :)

it has some small mounted guns and can defend itself
but is not heavily armed. it is more a exploration unit
that is scouting the swamps on a distant planet.

it is a transformed plastic dinosaur.
you can spot the original toy in this image of my studio
(small orange dinosaur on the left side.)

took me a while to glue all the little pieces.
once i was happy with it i painted it with black spray paint and acrylics.

the most fun was decorating the dinosaur with moss
and making that small swamp-platform.
the base and the mud and moss really help to tell a story
and put the figure into it´s own world.
i´m quite happy how it worked out!

it´s like a mix of star wars and James Gurneys Dinotopia

atm i am making a little sea-monster that can actually dance
and balance a small ball over it´s blow-hole.
it´s true !:D maybe i´ll have to make a video of that one...
will update on it later.

hope you enjoyed this!

cheers!

Amazing art! Thanks for sharing.

yay ! Steempunkosaurus is a good name ! :)

That's a very cool toy... But needs to be away from children, as they'll wreck it, for sure! 😂

Thanks for sharing, @papersmell.

hey yes it´s more a decorative piece now- i kinda destroyed the toy :D

this is the greatest thing I have ever seen...

heyhoo thank youuu !

This is rad!!! Are you doing this "just for fun" or do you have some kind of game play in mind for this? I can see some kind of robodinosaur warhammer clone being a lot of fun :)

hey yeah ! doing it for fun but i wish i had a group of table-top rpg players to bring this one to life....

Excellent, I love how you use lego pieces for such crafting. You gave me something to look forward to, I'll try to do something similar :)

So cool! Just like my childhood toy, but way better. I always thought about riding on a dinosaur, but now I want to even more!

Your studio looks awesome. I would never want to leave it. And I definitely want to see the dancing sea-monster. Be sure to do a post.
