awesome thread, keep 'm coming
Always love your paleo art Pete. Every one of these pieces is gorgeous! Keep up the great work.
Thanks Zbrushers…been away a while… Just spent 4 months modelling and illustrating 48 different dinosaurs for a new book…

Awesome, what is the title and info on the book? My 4 yr old loves dinosaurs. 
Not sure what the title is…its a directory of all things prehistoric…will post more when I can

Some more wip from the book
Amazing work as always! …Looking forward to adding this book to the prehistoric shelf.
Hi Zbrushers,
Ive just spent the last few weeks with my brand new Wanhao Duplicator 4x and its proving to be a game changer for me.
Its a weird kind of science melting plastic in layers and I just wanted to share my experiences with a few tips I have.
Lots of debate as to what material to use…either ABS or PLA. Both have advantages etc but Im sticking with ABS as it seems to hold the detail better on high resolution prints.
The biggest hurdle is simply making the material stick firmly to the printers glass plate…especially important when undertaking a 15 hour high res plate. The frustration of watching your print fail 7 or 8 hours in is a killer. People use heat resistant tape etc…my solution is to simply spread a thin layer of PVA white glue across the printers glass plate. The pre heating of the print plate cures the PVA and it makes for a perfect surface for the extruded ABS to stick to. I havent had a failed print since using this method and cleanup is a breeze. You simply take the plate with print attached and soak it in a bowl of water. The PVA dissolves and the model floats free.
The images show a high res T rex bust print along with a caracature puppet for a TV pilot now in production
Just got my copy of the dinosaur book Ive been working on for four months.
47 Dinosaurs in 16 weeks…I wore out my wacom
Great job on those dinos , they look excellent 
Ah, perfect as usual, my friend. Love the Stegosaurus. Do you have some model shots laying about?
Wow, congrats on the great work Peter! You are a dinosaur master! small_orange_diamond

Genial!!
Outstanding, outstanding, outstanding!!
Such amazing work.
Hi
Just another shot from the book…Battling Triceratops
I love the illustrations, the page Lay-out, the colors and the accuracy of the 3D Model. This kind of work is really inspiring to me…
You did everything in 4 months?!
These last pictures are great. It’s nice to see how you’ve improved with your rendering skills to the point where they look so real now. Great work. I’ve got 3 of your books here, you’ll have to sign them for me. 
Thanks Guys.
Yup…47 dinosaurs in 4 months…had a three week rest where I had Viet Nam style flashbacks whenever I picked up my Wacom pen.
Would love a project that isnt dictated by stupidly short deadlines
