Custom Papo brand dinos! Get your own now!
Posted 18 years agoOkay, so I've been knocking around the idea of painting and adding sculpted bits and such to Papo brand dinosaur figures in order to customize them as commissions for other people.
They are made in the Jurassic Park style, which I've always thought LOOKED really awesome despite anatomy/technical flaws.
I would custom paint them with acrylic paints, and make sculpy add ons such as feathering or spines, etc.
The Papo brand raptor, t-rex, and spinosaur all have articulated jaws, arms, and legs, so you can move them around and pose them however you like.
Now, the charge of the customized dinos would include the initial price of the original figures, shipping, as well as my work to customize them.
Utah/Velociraptor = $80+
Tyrannosaurus Rex = $150+
Spinosaurus = $200+
These are BASE PRICES, and would be subject to higher costs depending on how complicated the customization would be to do.
I would also be able to make the figures a bit more anatomically correct (NO DINO GENITALS, I am referring to skeletal accuracies). Such as making the raptor tail longer and more straight/stiff with inward facing palms rather than the limp downward wrists from the Jurassic Park movies.
If anyone would be interested in these, you can see the figures I'm talking about at the following link:

There are other dinos in there, I just listed the ones I'd enjoy doing the most. I can, however, customize any dino figure from the list behind the above link! :}
So, send me a note if you would like a customized dino figure all your own! Paypal is preferred, but I will also accept hidden cash. I prefer not to bother with checks/money orders.
No custom dino figure will be reproduced the same, so every customized dino will be ONE OF A KIND.

Posted 18 years agoSorry for the lack of updates. Been working on a lot of commissions and nothing much I feel like uploading over here, lately.
:P

Posted 18 years agoI'm taking on a personal project in between commissions soon, in which I'll be writing and recalling the worst of my nightmares. For updates on this project, visit my livejournal.
