Carnegie Majungasaurus
« on: October 04, 2012, 01:39:00 PM »
Scott Hartman's Majungasaurus, (picture below) has an awesome, low slung look. I love it. Then the thought if Carnegie tried to make this version a model popped into my head. It's funny, thinking of how they could balance it. A tripod stance would be difficult, without making it look like a tail drag. It's just so funny..I'm weird..
Can anyone think of how they could do it without just leaving it natural looking? Balance it, I mean.

That's basically the pose, build and shape of the CollectA Mapusaurus, and it mostly stands just fine.

I would love to see one based on that skeletal model. Yeah, CollectA made one, but I've got problems with their sculpts and sizes. I have no doubt we'll see one in a few years.

They would just do what they did to the Crylophosaurus: tripod using the tip of the tail.  Although I suppose if they really wanted to be daring, they could give it a base! :o
