Don't worry, I'm not about to flood the Customs section with life-sized props.
Had I worked consistently, the claw would have taken 2 to 3 days to make. But I took my sweet ass time, and it wound up taking a couple years. Yes, years. The claw was 98% finished a couple years ago, and then I gave it the finishing touches a few days ago. Anyway, it was cut, carved, and filed out of black PVC. The plaque itself took about 3 days to make. It's made of plaster, and then I carved and chipped and scratched away with various tools. It was finished off with black aerosol paint to match the black PVC of the claw. If you measure the length of the outer curve of the claw, it is 6 inches long. |

This is the overblown result of wanting my own raptor claw like the one Alan Grant had in Jurassic Park. As it happens, my claw is a lot more anatomically accurate.
