In
today's world, superbly detailed, mass-produced, figurines
of animals – living and extinct – are readily
available at very competitive prices. With sculptures of
such quality on sale at relatively low cost, the highly priced,
limited edition model, however well produced, loses much
of its appeal. That is why I offer unique, one-off figurines,
individually made to meet my client’s specifications.
With a degree in Zoology and over 25 years experience of
wildlife illustration for the World Wide Fund for Nature,
Department of Conservation, New Zealand Geographic magazine,
the Auckland Observatory, several museums and many publishers
the production of high quality, scale wildlife and prehistoric
models was a natural progression.
Each
model is carefully hand sculpted from a very durable New
Zealand-made polymer clay to a pose of your choosing and
is finished to a high standard in scientifically accurate
colours, or if you're looking for something a little different,
a fantastic bronzed finish.
Please feel free to browse the gallery of example pieces.
I have a deep resource of researched ,accurate scale drawings
from which to contruct your model or you may supply your
own artwork. I am able to produce scale models in any sze
from simple desktop scale models to life-size museum pieces. |
