Tyrannosaurus skeleton I sculpted for the Field Museum of Natural History, in Chicago.  I work in the Exhibits department there, where magicsculp has been a staple material for some time. I'd never used it before working at the museum, but I knew it would be perfect for this model.  I was asked to create a model of Sue, the new T-rex.  This model was created before the skeleton was assembled, and served as a visual aid for the museum's developers and designers in planning the new exhibit.  I used a steel and aluminum armature, and the rest is mostly magicsculp, which I painted to match the color of the actual fossil.  1/24th scale was used. Thanks for such a strong, handy product!
