I stripped down the pieces and sanded or cut off all seam lines and flash, then carved out the ribs and built up the top bone stubs on the vertebrae. I also cut off the jaw hinge and gave the skull a better shape.
It was then airbrushed white and aged white. To finish I added a sepia wash, and finally some light grey dusting.
It took one day, and made for a fun weekend project.
