Product details

Product description and measurements
During the Late Jurassic, approximately 150 million years ago, in the ecosystems that now make up East Africa—especially in what is now Tanzania—complex ecological interactions developed between large herbivorous dinosaurs and their predators. One of the most significant potential encounters involved the carnivorous theropod Ceratosaurus nasicornis and the armored stegosaur Kentrosaurus aethiopicus.

Ceratosaurus, approximately 6 meters long and with an agile and muscular build, was an opportunistic predator that combined speed, jaw strength, and an elongated skull with recurved, serrated teeth. Its strong hind legs provided an effective stride for ambushing or stalking medium-sized prey, while its long, flexible tail provided balance during rapid maneuvers.

For its part, Kentrosaurus, with a more compact body measuring about 4.5 meters in length, represented a potentially risky target. Although it didn't reach the defensive dimensions of its North American relative Stegosaurus, Kentrosaurus compensated with a set of specialized defenses: dorsal dermal plates that could deter frontal attacks and, above all, a powerful "thagomizer" composed of pairs of long caudal spines, which extended laterally and could exceed 80 centimeters in length. These structures were articulated with a flexible tail, capable of delivering lateral strikes of considerable force.

In a hypothetical predatory scene, a Ceratosaurus might have opted for a cautious approach, stalking from the undergrowth or skirting a group of Kentrosaurus in search of young, injured, or isolated individuals. However, a direct confrontation with a healthy adult would have required precision and calculated risk. A frontal attack was unlikely, as it exposed the predator to the defensive spines. More likely, it would have been an attempt at an attack from the side or from behind, seeking to bite the base of the tail or the hind limbs.

Kentrosaurus, in response, would have quickly turned its body and used its tail as its primary weapon. Impact injuries from the spikes could have caused severe wounds to the predator's limbs, especially if they hit muscular areas like the thigh or vulnerable joints like the knee. Fossils of other stegosaurs with thagomizers have shown evidence of lethal defensive trauma on theropods, suggesting that a poorly executed attack could prove fatal to the hunter.

Information about aftershocks

Collector's item ; Hyper-realistic replica, highly detailed and with a high degree of scientific precision.

Made to scale, prototyped in resin and with a scenic base in most of the models offered. If you like miniatures, both for collecting and for painting, we offer you a wide variety of scale replicas; All of them related to dinosaurs, extinct prehistoric fauna and current fauna.

So if you love dinosaurs and animals as much as we do, this is your favorite store to collect and paint them :)

We are authorized distributors of all the replicas and figures we offer. We use 3D printers with 8K - 14K resolution, and high-quality resins with additives to improve hardness and flexibility, thus offering replicas of impeccable quality.

Different scales will be used to make the replicas (depending on the size of the species), although we are open to making other suggested scales upon request as long as they fit in our printing trays, for which you will have to contact us via email and request the required size.

Replicas are supplied with the option of airbrush priming in dark grey. If you require another colour, please let us know which one you prefer in the box with special instructions for the seller. Without priming, we do not guarantee that the resin will accept paint.
We also offer the option of choosing a professionally painted replica, which is agreed upon throughout its development with the painter, through a private chat available.

Complete replica (one piece): We supply complete replicas in those models that are small, and models that are medium, large or not very bulky, will have the prerogative of being presented as a complete replica or assembly kit as the case may be.
Complete replicas will be supplied separately from their base.

Replica assembly kit: We supply replicas whose models are large, very large or bulky, only with this option.
The indicated replicas (generally composed of base, head, body and tail) will come prepared for the subsequent assembly that will be required by the client, by sanding, putty, adhesive or technique chosen by the client.

All replicas are thoroughly inspected before shipping and will be carefully packaged to prevent damage during transport.

Information about the models

The poses of the models aim to represent each character in the most scientifically viable way, thus revealing the life and customs of prehistoric and modern fauna.

Each character has its own personality and develops in different life scenarios; birth, adolescence and play, hunting, feeding, fighting, courtship, death and many other scenes from their daily life, always from the creative perspective of their designers.

Handmade

All orders are individually prepared on the cutter for subsequent prototyping, obtaining a resin part that will require post-processing by manual and ultrasonic cleaning, support removal, ultraviolet curing, labeling and packaging.

We are authorized distributors

We offer both our own physical replicas and those that have been modeled by many of the best 3D designers, in order to offer you the greatest possible variety.
