Hey all, bought a digital camera, thought I'd show off the TribeB raptor I painted -

That looks pretty good, Drac. On my end, I can barely read my own handwriting.

That is looking really good, nice work!

Pretty damn nifty, Drac. You should see about getting an actual JP series 1 Raptor and converting it to Tres colours! What kind of paint are you using?

I once tried to paint a series 1 Raptor to be accurate to the Lost World tiger Raptor, but I had no idea what I was doing and it turned out terrible. Luckily I have four of them stashed away - those must be the most common JP toys.

Thanks guys!
It so happens I have two JPS1 raptors, thinking I could paint one as a C tribe...

That's a neat idea! If you're going to handle it, don't forget to spray some clear coat over it.

Gloss coat or dull coat?

Don't have a gloss to apply.. Honestly I am more concerned that they look cool. Budget's also a thing, I am moving into a new apartment soon and need to save for application fees and furniture.

Hehe, don't have a black-crested raptor for this... Say uh, what all do we know about this one? Was it the original form of the one that "we never knew why it grew so large", RaptorCBoss? Or were they different..

Well according to the script this in Plains and where Anne sees the second raptor tribe for the first time. "After seeing the second raptor tribe, she thinks aloud for a while."

Ahhhhhhh right now I remember. That was supposed to describe Tribe B. I always assumed it was the one with the battery-containing radio collar. As well perhaps that it would be the only tribe-B in PL, then they would become common in PV.
