Moved on a little with this one, must sort out the gap in the nose though.
That's turned out well Ian.
Never really looked at the eye Dave, I’ll get back to you on that one.
No idea if it's realistic but it certainly looks good and what I imagine it looked like!
Well done so far!!

Got a little bit more done.
Looking very good.... Just need some mid-brown and it could be German tri-colour camo!

Certainly different , very nice Ian .
If only Bob would build these, then we could call him Bobthesteg :smiling3:
Done some more painting, trying to add colour modulation, also painted the plates on the back. Not sure if I should add some reds and oranges, because some say they were used for heat regulation or courtship.
Looking good Ian - Warts and all!
I do like him (or her). Does anyone know if these beasties had claws on their toes?
Looking good Ian. Go for the regulation and courtship colours…..it will add interest to the plates…..possibly a dark colour to absorb heat…..
Just had a read Jim, apparently they were hooved, so no claws!
Just had another read up (very interesting subject) and the skeleton in the Natural History Museum has feet like that Dave. Mind you, I’d say they were nails, not claws
There are a lot of different species of Stegosaurus that have been found so some may have developed hoof like structures. Can’t find my original quote though, so may have misread it. One thing most sites agree on is that the tail was held erect, in line with the back, not laying on the ground as they have been drawn since I was a nipper……
