Robert´s custom Mammuthus trogontherii

Ok... some time earlier I told you my friend Robert is working on something. And it´s hard to believe this one is his first try with sculpting... He made Mammuthus trogontherii. This mammoth was bigger than hairy mammoth. He was 5,11 meters tall and his sholder height was about 4,6m. It is the largest species of mammoth. The largest specimens found in China were named Mammuthus sungari , but after the review were assigned to the Mammuthus trogontherii . The skeleton exhibited in Japan measuring 5.3 meters in height and 9.1 m in length. Live weight is estimated at 12 to 17 tons...
This model is in scale 1:35. It´s 14,6cm tall and it´s shoulder height is 13,2cm.

Personally... I´m without words because I think It is absolutelly amazing!!!

lift my thumb up!!

What a fantastic model, specially for a first attempt!
When this goes on with all of our modelmakers here, the big companies can better close their doors.
Better to spend some more money on these quality items, then lots of money on crappy models, which have so many flaws!

Robert is thankful for your kind and fantastic comments. He is so glad you like his custom mammoth :) Big thank you!

Oh no, thank him for his wonderfull model, and the fact, that he wants to share it with us!
