Megaloceros giganteus (1:20 scale)

Accordig some recent studies, it would have disapeared only -8000 Before Present in Caucasus!..

Amazing work, with and without the base!!

Absolutely stunning. The base adds some more detail and intricacy to the model.

You chose a great animal to bring back to life, and you have done a magnificent job

OMG !!!!! To me, it is a like miracle to follow the birth of this awesome model of this awesome creature !!!!

How can human brain make human hands make something so delicate, powerful looking and perfect ????

Thankyou ever so much for sharing the creation of this magnificent model

Thank you very much for your friendly words about this figure     . Very thankful !.

In general, those of us who collect animal figures prefer to have them without a base but I tried to see the difference by adding one to this irish elk figure and I think it is quite balanced, perhaps more elegant. Although not necessary at all for its stability.

I present a photo of the whole group. While both deer male together would end up being a wild battle.

I have also taken a picture with a human figure of schleich to represent how immense this species was in life. Really impressive !.

I think the cowboy had better go back to his horses
...great and informative picture !

Imagine that people used to hunt those enormous creatures with spears and such

Such amazing work, Signatus. It's very interesting to see your work process too. How did you make the copies? Can you reuse some of what you did for the original figure (like a mould?) or do you start completely from scratch?

Thank you ! ! . Yes rogerpgvg ,I first model the figure with a resin that hardens with heat and once finished I make a silicone mold of the original. It is from this mold that copies are made of polyurethane resin and then painted with acrylics.
