Scimitar-toothed Cat, reconstructed at 1:20 scale and hand-painted in polyurethane resin. 117 × 65 mm. Sculpted by J. Miguel Aparicio, made to order.
The scimitar cat differed from Smilodon in almost every respect: shorter, coarsely serrated canines, long forelimbs and a sloping back suited to running down prey in the open rather than ambushing it. Remains dredged from the North Sea show it persisted in Europe far later than once thought.
Modelled by hand in heat-hardened clay over a wire armature, moulded in silicone and cast in polyurethane resin. Every copy is cleaned, retouched and painted by hand in acrylics, so no two pieces are ever strictly identical.
Made to order. Each casting is finished individually, so please allow time for preparation before dispatch.
