Irish Elk (?) Diagrams

Post by dinogami »

Hi All! - Hey, just curious: does anyone know if diagrams exist for the Kawahata (?) Irish elk (Megaloceras) (?) shown on the bottom half of the cover of the 2006 Tanteidan special issue?:

Not sure if I have the identity of either the model or the folder correct here--corrections welcome in addition to any pointers. Thanks!

I remember seeing/hearing about a partial CP. I don't remember where, but I think it exists.
If you're not particular about this specific model, Robert Lang has an Irish Elk with a CP.
After the fall, we rise.

I found a cp for the irish elk by Robert J. Lang. However, I know that it's not the one that you are finding for. But I found one irish elk made by Nham Van Son. It's quite cool but has different horns(they are a bit smaller and are less detailed than the one in your image.

I finally found the special edition(I was sure that I had it somewhere in my room) and a cp for the elk is in there. But instead of elk, it is reindeer. But I'm sure it is the model that you are looking for. mixmastermarc16 is right.

Hmmmm...interesting! Thanks for that info, everyone! Now I'll have to try to find a copy of that issue and see if I can work out the cp (which I'm very bad at)...! :D
