JanetVanD Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) Built as a set of commissioned works for Warren Elsmore's book Brick by Brick Dinosaurs and his tour Brick Dinos , this series of dinosaur dioramas is the culmination of six months of hard work, late nights, lots of research and loads of fun! Each dinosaur has been designed as accurately as possible and has been placed in a setting suitable to its environment and era. (I call my collection "Jurassic Brick" as a whim, since I am well aware that many of the creatures actually lived during the Cretaceous period!) Anyone interested in building these dinos should get a copy of Warren Elsmore's book. Warren did a brilliant job creating clear, step-by-step instructions which turn my rather complicated models into something readers can confidently build at home themselves. I really enjoyed designing this series of dinosaurs and hope others get pleasure from building them!

sander1992 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Those are very nice layouts and each one of them is very detailed and colorful. You have done a great job capturing the Jurassic feel. Really nice, absolutely. Quote
Littleworlds Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Very impressive! I was looking, at your deviant art page, after seeing your Santiago de Compostela build and wondered when you would post more of your wonderful creations. The dinosaurs looks very, very good and show quite some attention to current reconstructions. Superbly done, as are the backgrounds. The only criticism I have is hat brachiosaurus wasn't a tail-dragger, but thats just a tiny detail really Quote
Tom Jurassic Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Wonderful work - I may need to purchase the book! Quote
av_bossk Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 Awesome work ! I love also the landscapes ! Quote
Dapper-D2 Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 These are terrific! I really enjoyed looking at them. Thanks for sharing! Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 I can't handle such a beaty! Top notch work!!! Quote
Chimp Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 Wow! These look amazing! Kid me want have gone crazy if he saw these. But adult me is going "Where are the feathers on the T Rex?" Jk Seeing that museum makes hope for a modular in the future. Quote
Criosphynx Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 I absolutely adore brick built dinosaurs, Ill be looking for the book, these are awesome Quote
blackdeathgr Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Beautiful dinosaur models! Great work! Quote
Legogal Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 Holy crapoli! What a fine lot of dines....OMG! All the little nieces and nephews are gonna go bonkers when they see these photos. And the big folks, too. It was wonderful seeing a setting for each type because that makes them more real looking. Congrats on so many fine builds! Quote
JanetVanD Posted March 21, 2017 Author Posted March 21, 2017 Thanks, everyone, for all the positive feedback. It means a lot! Quote
legotrainfan Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Those are really some awesome and fantastic creations! Keep up that excellent work! Quote
Evolved Turtle Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 These are some of the most brilliant dinosaur MOCs-and MOCs in general-that I have ever seen. The attention to detail is spectacular! A bit off the subject, but I'm new here. How do you get those quotes/pics, etc. that appear underneath each of your posts? Quote
Niku Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 My goodness this mocs are one of the best I have seen so far on EB this year. Congratulations on the amazing job. :) Quote
TheLegoDr Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 The dinosaurs look good, but I'm actually more interested in the terrain and water effects. Those play nicely into things I build. Although, I thought Brontosaurus technically wasn't real (I thought it was a misnomer). Either way, it looks like a great collection. Good job. Quote
kieran Posted April 11, 2017 Posted April 11, 2017 They look amazing, must have taken an age to create them all Quote
DamianT Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 Great collection of mocs, you have managed to create a great prehistoric atmosphere for each build. Well done:) Quote
Redhead1982 Posted November 2, 2017 Posted November 2, 2017 For some reason I missed them, but they're too good not to comment and praise. They are simply amazing. Not just capturing the shapes and colors, also the settings and/or backgrounds are full of detail and look very realistic. The landscaping is perfect. If I had to choose, the triceratops are my favourite. Congratulations on this excelent build. Quote
MaasEffekt Posted November 8, 2017 Posted November 8, 2017 Whoa! Very beautiful creations! Amazing! Love dinos! Quote
ZORK64 Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 I love the amount of detail that went both into the dinos and the scenery. Great job on all of them! I think the Aletopelta is my favourite. Both the dinosaur and the scenery look beatiful. But I also like Spinosaurus and Sarcosuchus a lot. Quote
