W e are experts at creating sculptures for exciting
and enlightening exhibits, signage and displays. From aquariums to museums, we can create sculptures that will excite and educate. What would that fossil you have look
like as a fully fleshed out dinosaur? Let us help you find out. Maybe a giant sea creature molded in fiberglass for the roof top? A bronze buffalo herd, a lion or a bronze dinosaur by the front entry? We can do that too.
At The 4 Kids our sculptors work with a combination of traditional techniques and computer driven, laser guided machines to create the most beautiful sculptures anywhere.
We produce terrifyingly interesting dinosaurs. Deadly velociraptors locked in combat, stampeding triceratops
or a t-rex in
pursuit of a meal. Capture the imagination of your guests by letting them come face-to-face with these prehistoric giants. Showcasing the recent discoveries of paleontologists, our dinosaurs reflect the latest views on dinosaur anatomy, behavior and the evolutionary link between dinosaurs and birds. • Fleshed-out models complete with skin or feathers based on recent discoveries
• Life size dinosaur mounts and
fossil bone recreations and sculptures
• Natural settings of dinosaurs locked in combat, sitting on nests or hunting food
• Dioramas • Touchable casts of dinosaur bones and skin
• Material options include fiberglass, GFRC, bronze, polymer and more
