I finally had enough time this weekend to finish up a custom that I've wanted to do for a long time. I really liked the Papo Raptor until I got one about a year ago, my main complaint was the painted upper teeth and I always wanted to customize one with the sculpted teeth like the prototype had but never got around to it. I picked up another Raptor while out of town a few months ago and shaved off the original teeth and resculpted new ones, I also moved both arms and lifted the tail so it doesn't touch the ground anymore. Here is a comparison picture:  I have more pictures in my PhotoBucket if anyone is interested. |

Amazing job man. The paintjob is so crisp and clean. One of the best dino customs I have ever seen.

You should've positioned the hands correctly ;D When I was removing the arms I actually thought about making the hands more accurate but in the end decided I liked the look of the inaccurate JP Raptor, that and I was just too lazy to do it.  |

Great work on the teeth and arms. Mine all stand without the tail touching anyway though.
