Beschreibung

This new book, greatly expanded from the 1995 first edition, describes detailed, step-by-step procedures for sculpting, molding and painting original prehistoric animals. It emphasizes the use of relatively inexpensive materials including oven-hardening polymer clay and wire. Additional tips are offered on how to build distinctive dino-dioramas and scenes involving one's own original sculptures that you will learn how to conceive and build.
This book will appeal to a new generation who would like to break into the industry of paleosculpture. Techniques range from ""basic"" to ""advanced."" The authors also discuss what it means to be a ""paleoartist.""
