I mean that is amazing, and I would imagine fetched a fair whack more than this theme park wants for its second-hand animatronics!

- defrost 1y agoIt's a nice piece done up well and made with the intent to sell, sure. One of the fun things about W.Australia (and elsewhere) is the number of people that make semi decent scrap art for the fun of and put it up on their properties or roadside (the road into the town where I am now has a 30+ year history of having various (large) trees "dressed up" Mr. Potato Head style). The Broome dino I linked above is a throw to history I lived as a child, following dinosaur tracks in various places when the tide went out or sand banks shifted. People are less open about sharing where tracks are now, for good reason: https://www.australiangeographic.com.au/science-environment/2013/11/on-this-day-stolen-dinosaur-footprint-recovered/ https://www.australiangeographic.com.au/science-environment/...
- Nursie 1y agoI remember heading out of Perth to the South about 15 years ago and at some point passing a field with various UFOs and other pieces of scrap art arranged along the roadside. I should probably figure out welding at some point! We're on the edges of Perth metro and would be quite happy being the weird dino house. There's already (though I haven't seen it for a few months) a Pajero around here that has a Jurassic Park style wrap on it, that drives by once in a while.
