Paleocraft's Elasmotherium
The newest entry to my prehistoric zoo, is the Elasmotherium from Paleocraft.
The model was a typical Paleocraft offering - excellently detailed, in a bubble free, odorless resin. There was a little flash here and there in the thick fur, but took little time to clean it up.
Oddly enough, the kit went so smoothly that I took no WIP pics. I just used various brown colors, washed the recesses with Citadel's Agrax Earthshade, and finally giving the highlights a topcoat of a tan flesh color.
Thanks for looking.

Re: Paleocraft's Elasmotherium
That looks great!
Interesting choice on the horn color. It's different.
I really like it.

Thank you!david manke wrote:beautiful! about how long is this kit in inches?
The horn juts out forward, so including the horn, he's about 10 inches. 8inches for just the body. And 5 inches from the base to the top of the shoulder. HTH
