This highly detailed, museum grade model (195 mm long - scale 1:15) is made of gypsum and has been created by paleoartist Bruce Currie using state of the art 3D printing technology. After initial printing the model undergoes a secondary process that enhances surface quality, accentuates colouration and provides protection against UV damage and handling. This model also receives a small amount of hand finishing before being packaged and shipped along with a detailed information card.Â
This is a carefully researched model.
