Anchoring the Dinosaur

The plasma cut dinosaur is definitely a bit top heavy. We needed him to be somewhat movable and thus a sturdy (and heavy) base was required. We decided he would be perched on a well weathered log made from concrete. Matt had been bringing in some pretty cool samples of gnarly wood which would serve as the perfect inspiration. He welded up the intricate armature and wired it up in preparation for the mud. Today Matt started the fibreglass reinforced concrete sculpting. It is looking fabulous!
