Model has a rod provided for additional support if needed.
Nyctosaurus is a pterosaur from the Late Cretaceous period of what is now the Niobrara Formation of the mid-western United States, which, during the time Nyctosaurus was alive, was covered in an extensive shallow sea.
Nyctosaurus was similar in anatomy to its close relative and contemporary, Pteranodon. It had relatively long wings, similar in shape to modern seabirds. However, it was much smaller overall than Pteranodon, with an adult wingspan of over 2 meters.
Some skull specimens preserve a distinctively large crest, at least 55 centimeters in the older adults, and was relatively gigantic compared to the rest of the body, while also being over three times the length of the head.
The crest is composed of two long, grooved spars, one pointed upward and the other backward, arising from a common base projecting up and back from the back of the skull.
Model includes a Pre-supported version.
The model is sized for 1:15 of the actual size. You can reduce or enlarge the model using the slicing software if you need a different size.
Pre-supported model is oriented to minimize supports to the face and other high-detail parts. Care should be taken when removing the supports to avoid damaging the model.
