As I am on vacation, I am being able to finish some old stuff:

This time 2 trouts, the Cutthrout (left one) I´d actually built it long ago, but the Grayling trout was finished yesterday. Very fast assembly, and the result is very lifelike too.

For some reason the Grayling pic was deleted or get corrupted, so I uploaded it again:

Nice clean builds there Shiftdel. What scale re they, or are they life size?

Johnny.

I think they are close to 1:2.5 scale.

Both have around 25 cm (almost 10 in). Grayling life size is around 60 cm, which would give it a 1:2.4 scale; and the Cutthrout life size is between 15 and 102 cm, so at 25 cm it could be even 1:1 at the smaller size range (not sure if there is maturity variation in color or morphology, though).

someone really need to design a dunkleosteus or other organisms of the Late Devonian period. who here agrees with me?

Interesting looking beastie. A life size model would use up a lot of paper though.

Google images search showed quite a few models, but I don't think any were paper. Quite a few were on Deviant Art website, where a lot of artists work in paper, so it could be worth a search of the site.

keep on snippin' ... Johnny.

heck yeah, that would be alot of paper. thats a 8 meter long fish. i have yet to seen any papermodels on this beasty, even on deviantart. it's quite surprising, since the Placoderm is essentially 100% awesomeness. helicoprion, stethacanthus and Ctenacanthus are also quite underrated oddities. and all would make amazing paper models
