Tyrannosaurus Rex by Alejandr0

Nice update is looking great. The arms look fine a little more dynamic. When in comes to part 34 it's supposed to come after 32 and 33 are finished. I'll try to make it clearer on the instructions. For the legs I don't know if cutting the seam on top of 34 (back to front) would allow you to fit your fingers enough to help glue the leg. Give it a try. I'll be looking forward to the finished build. Thank you very much for all the corrections, they are helping out a lot. I'm already building it as well. I'm a little behind you, just starting on the first leg. I'll post pictures soon.

Got the leg on; left off the last two pieces, glued it on, then applied the two pieces. Looks fine.
Alejandr0, a question: I am getting close to applying the teeth, and am wondering about location. The diagram provided is good for fore-aft placement, but I am wondering about side-to-side. Do the teeth go on the seam between 4b and 4c, and 5a and 5c? Or more on one or the other?

[Alejandr0]

Hi. I'm glad you got the legs on your almost there. The teeth are supposed to go on piece 4b close to the seam (on top) and on parts 5a and 5b on the bottom. here are some pictures to help.

Thanks Alejandr0, that tooth diagram will help a lot.
Part 33p needs tabs at the red dots.
Got the leg on...
Part 35 needs a tab.
How I've been doing the folds: Accidentally printed a copy of the black and white at Full Size as opposed to Fit To Page that turned out useful. Cut out part and edge colored, then lay on black and white version, line up tabs, and then rub from valley of tab to other end of line showing with edge of small metal ruler I have. This makes a very faint shiny line. When all are lined, fold over edge of ruler along shiny lines.
So, now the body is complete, just need to give it some teeth and claws!

Finished the teeth and claws, and DONE!
Tried lightening up the edge coloring with some watercolor pencils, it was bugging me.
Going to take some more pics with a better backdrop and lighting.
All in all, an enjoyable build.

truly amazing congratulations on an excellent build of a fantastic model.

Very nice. Ever thought of having him attack Patrick Pasques's Jurassic Park Explorer?

That really came out great. Many of the dino models are kind of stiff, but the pose of your T-Rex is very fluid and natural.
