Congratulation for the good job Christoph
I have three questions for you.
What do you mean by scale changed ?
What part of the CollectA Gomphotherium legs did you cut ?
Is it easy to customize a 3D print like your African forest elephant ?

Thank you again everybody :)

@Kiki:
For example the American Mastodon.
On shapeways it's in 1:32, so I modified the scale to 1:35.
For the african forest elephant I used the 1:48 model of the bush elephant.

Regarding the Gomphotherium, I cut ~1cm of each leg right over the ankles, as for me the legs look too long.
Now the shoulder heigth is below the african elephant and that's okay for me.

For the forest elephant, I needed just small changes.
I cut a litte bit off from the ears to give them a slightly rounder shape and I bend the tusks, so they are now more straight and point downwards.
For that, you need to heat up the model a little bit.
Not too much.

Tng 1:35 stegodon

Stunning paint job!

It is very inspired by the Resin one

please Christoph, your first pics disappeared, could you upload them again ?

I had also a folder under "collections": Prehistoric elephants.
But also here the pictures disappeared.

I will put everything under "Melekhs Collection".

Maybe you should upload them again here because your topics are great

I don't think it's still matching the Diorama category.

All elephants are now here:
