The Grant Museum's 'hero' specimens

This blog is to keep track of a project of mine with the Grant musuem (UCL) it is to create 3 models for the 'Hero' specimens on display there- Quagga(extinct zebra), Dodo, and Thylacine(extinct marsupial predator).

The models should be a close representation but also be tough enough to withstand much handling by students. Further Projects if this is successful might include Devonian era fish models to replace the old and damaged plaster ones.

One main reason for me doing this blog is as an incentive to get down to it, been a few weeks and i've done very little.
