This new book, greatly expanded from the 1995 first edition, describes detailed, step-by-step procedures for sculpting, molding and painting original prehistoric animals. It emphasizes the use of relatively inexpensive materials including oven-hardening polymer clay and wire. Additional tips are offered on how to build distinctive dino-dioramas and scenes involving one's own original sculptures that you will learn how to conceive and build.

This book will appeal to a new generation who would like to break into the industry of paleosculpture. Techniques range from "basic" to "advanced." The authors also discuss what it means to be a "paleoartist."

Allen A. Debus, a retired environmental chemist, has long been infatuated with dinosaurs, paleontology, science fiction, Godzilla and King Kong. He has written several books addressing prehistoric creatures—both real and fictional—in popular culture, and attends Chicagoland’s Wizard World and G-Fest. He is a member of the G-Fan Hall of Fame and lives in Hanover Park, Illinois. The exceptionally talented artist Bob Morales has sculpted numerous prehistoric animals including those reproduced as resin kits for Lunar Models and commissioned for Saurian Studios, as well as for other clients. He interviewed noted paleoartist Gregory S. Paul for Prehistoric Times, and has managed a successful studio, Dragon Attack!, in Colton, California. The late Diane E. Debus was a writer and coauthored articles with her husband Allen A. Debus. She lived in Hanover Park, Illinois.
