I started building this at work for the year 2 children just before Christmas. I didn't start a build thread, but if you want I can start it again because the early years teachers want 1 too.

Wow! Now this is really different. No “out of the box” shenanigans here! Great stuff.
 
Hi Ian
Now that is clever and different and all built from cardboard boxes. I for one would like to see how you went about it.

I LOVE IT!!! I LOVE T REX and all prehistoric life.

Will you finish it with modelling clay?
I've always wanted to do a similar type of project but did not want to get bogged down with all that
wire and paper mashe' but your system looks easy and doable...even for me!

Will be watching for sure.

Jim.

Been a while since I did anything to this, but I've nearly got it built.

Thanks guys, I've got to coat it in brown paper now ( the stuff you get from packaging in the Amazon box's ), that will act as its skin. then the eye's to do and then the fun job of painting it all.
 
What's not to like about a T-Rex? Apart from it being a big scary thing, with big teeth & a bad attitude! Looks good & made from cardboard too, impressive.
 
Looking amazing Ian , a brilliant project ,the kids are going to love it . Cheers tony
 
HI Ian did this T-REX ever get finished as id love to see how it turned out ?
