I recently got hold of some of the old ITC Dinosaur skeleton kits for cheap on eBay and I've begun to clean up and rebuild the first of the two, the Tyrannosaurus!

Link to the in-progress page :

I've begun removing the terrible flash lines where the moulding is off and I've also begun to pin some pieces back in place as some pieces are weak and don't match up with the original holes correctly.

Thoughts and suggestions are more than welcome as this build progresses, so fire away!

Update :

Assembly complete, pose changed a little, skull drilled out, and museum style base -

Overall, it was a good build and a refreshing one too. Comments are more than welcome so fire away!

Excellent job... makes you think twice that its actually a scale model and not a picture of some museum exhibit.

Nice paint job. Your shading reminds me of the R-Rex I saw in the Field Museum. The only thing that kind of throws me off is the semi-gloss finish.
