Dave Corvino, Summerville, South Carolina
Dave reshaped the bones of Palmer’s 1950s-vintage Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton to give it a walking pose to match the dinosaur in the 2006 movie Night at the Museum. Over a base coat of black, he dry-brushed Citadel bone acrylic and weathered it with artist’s oils. The floor is printed paper; the ropes are yarn with plastic ends.
