Episode Description
In this jaw-dropping episode of the Prehistoric Life Podcast, host Eric Crawford sits down with Alex from @dinosaur_skeletons, a UK-based paleoartist who creates life-sized dinosaur skeletons with stunning scientific accuracy. From Velociraptors to juvenile T. rexes, Alex builds every bone from the ground up using 3D printing, resin, and traditional sculpting techniques—no shortcuts, no templates.🔍 Hear how a childhood obsession with Jurassic Park and Walking with Dinosaurs turned into a world-class business, supplying skeletons to collectors, museums, and paleontologists.🦖 Learn about the painstaking research, engineering, and artistic craft behind each skeleton—right down to custom-built internal metal armatures, crushed vertebrae from real fossil records, and even field matrix embedded into the resin!📦 Want a dinosaur in your living room?
