Spinosaurus Dinomation Statue Finally Arrives from Gecco

Published Sat, 18 Jan 2020 07:50:19 -0600

Gecco finally lets dinosaurs walk the Earth once again as they bring the Spinosaurus back to life. Last year Gecco started a new series of statues that are solidifying that memory of classic stop motion animation style dinosaur films. With graphics so limited back in the day some films feature claymation monsters especially dinosaurs. We have already seen the T-Rex get his statue and now the Spinosaurus gets his turn. Fun Fact 349: We do not actually know what a Spinosaurus looks like as the partial skeleton found in the Sahara was destroyed during a bombing in WWII. Gecco does what they can with this beautiful Denotation statue and from the detail and color is a very refreshing take on classic dinosaur scene.

The Gecco Spinosaurus Dinomation statue is priced at $170. He is set to walk the Earth once again in June and August 2020. Pre-orders are already live and you can find them located here.

Hear me roar.

ABOUT THIS STATUE

Since their discovery Dinosaurs have been portrayed in many different ways. With every new discovery and artist imagination, the look of the dinosaurs changed. Extensive research and new evidence have locked down the anatomy of certain dinosaur species.

In this statue series, we capture the Dinosaurs in a retro-style rather than an academic approach. Something that might appear in classic stop motion animation films. The series title, Dinomation, comes from combining the words "Dinosaur" and "Stop Motion Animation."

RYO the sculptor, painter, and creator of this series captures a moment of dynamic movement with the Dinosaur frozen in time, cut from a film frame of an imaginary yet familiar fantasy film.

He captures the wildness and vitality of the creature through his traditional clay sculpt.

"Spinosaurus" a large predatory dinosaur, is the second release of the series. Since they are thought to have lived and hunted in water, the platform is recreated as a jungle water scene.
