100:1 scale illusion

At the end, the individual parts are assembled. The pseudoscorpion is shown in scale 100:1.

Julia Stoess works closely with researchers from the LIB (here Nadine Dupérré). A recent pseudoscorpion, which is very similar to the extinct animal, serves as a model for her model.

Based on photos of a similar pseudoscorpion still living today and using Zbrush technology, Julia Stoess made a digital model showing the features of the Eocene species.

The bristles, scales and other individual parts are made by hand.

The print-ready template is finally poured out in synthetic resin and colored using airbrush technology.

Is he about to bite? The perfect illusion on a scale of 100:1 in the special exhibition.
