As we discussed in post February 1, 2020 “Hobbes Transformation & History of the Tyrannosaurs” early members of the Tyrannosaur family existed over 100 million years before the T-Rex came on the scene in the last of the Cretaceous Period.

Hobbes transformation & History of the Tyrannosaurs
We left Hobbes duplicate last week after he received his Rust Reformer coating. Hobbes 2 receives Rusty Brown Primer coats, then Hammered Copper for his underside & Racing Green Metallic for the topsides. I had already applied Gloss Marigold & Black to the eyes of the original Hobbes. Gloss White was used for both sets…

Making the Red-Nosed Raptor!
A couple of years ago, Raphael moved to a new perch. It’s a great location. He was the first one you would see coming up the driveway. With a magnificent Ankylosaur Tree right behind him you couldn’t wish for a better spot. Unfortunately before I installed cables to secure him in bad weather, we had…
