Behold! The Triceratopter!

The Triceratopter is a 1977 sculpture by artist Patricia Renick subtitled “Hope for the Obsolescence of War” but I secretly hope its how the triceratops left the planet before the meteors hit, “So long and thanks for all the fish” style.

    Pat was a professor of mine years ago. She had great enthusiasm and a big easy smile.
    Here’s a link to her ‘Stegowagenvolkssaurus’ which I believe was her first foray into dinosaurs meeting technology.

    I believe “roflcopter” is somewhat appropriate here.

    Wow, that is full of awesome! Airwolf beware!

    That sculpture is too awesome for its own good. No, seriously. It’s hard to say “War is bad” with something so cool.

    Next up… Tyrannosaus in F-14s!!!

    Not only is it awesome, but apparently it’s for sale. Would look great in my front yard.

    This reminds me of that line of Transformers toys that turned into dinosaurs.

    Imagine a group of these coming over the hill to Ride of the Valkyries
