    Jurassic Park gate with T-Rex under construction

    Cutting around the teeth really made the T-Rex look more angry and "real" in a way! I also folded the back part against a flat surface, since it was originally full of curves and flaps to build a full T-Rex. This is all I need as mine is going up on a wall display with a Jurassic Park gate...

    Jurassic Park gate with T-Rex under construction

    It worked! Looks kind of good right? :-) Notice that I had previously printed the teeth twice and glued them together to get insides!

    Jurassic Park gate with T-Rex under construction

    Some more bottom jaw stripes and then the hard part, trying to fit the mouth! And it was hard!! The shape of the mouth and the head didn´t line up 100% so I really had to force it in place! :-)

    Jurassic Park gate with T-Rex under construction

    Adding the first bottom stripe and two rows of teeth! Grrr! :-) Also used a red pen on the inside of the top and bottom to make it easier to fit the mouth inside without the edges showing.

    Jurassic Park gate with T-Rex under construction

    There were so many small flaps to glue inside the head that the only way to get glue on them, was to first apply glue to another small piece of paper and then stick that piece between the flaps!

    Jurassic Park gate with T-Rex under construction

    And then on with the build! I must say that although this seemed easier than my previous builds, I now had to learn to curve paper, while gluing, to make the head shape, so this was actually a challange!

    Jurassic Park gate with T-Rex under construction

    So, I wanted to buld a Jurassic Park gate with a T-Rex either coming out of an open gate or a T-Rex head popping out of a crushed gate. Since I didn´t find that model anywhere on the Internet, I decided to take the head part from a full body model that stood on a black plate with the texting...

    M41-A construction YES! Go cosplay! :-) Well, I haven´t used this yet, and I don´t even know if I will, this was only a picture test! I just put the name plate/name tag on a random camo jacket and took a photo! It shows partly thru the top handle of the rifle. Anyway, now it´s possible to see...

    M41A (from Aliens) under construction!

    M41-A construction As a last minute detail I made a "name tag" for cosplay, just to make it say USCM somewhere on the outfit! You know, United States Colonial Marines! Complete with logos. Feel free to use this as well, as much as you like! :-) In the next picture I am wearing it...
