Natureworks’ collection of reptile sculptures includes highly realistic replicas of alligators, crocodiles, lizards, snakes, tortoises, and turtles. These sculptures bring a touch of natural magic to all sorts of places, from wildlife centres and theme parks to playgrounds, water parks and backyard ponds.
Our Komodo Dragon is a very popular piece, as is our playground-certified Thorny Devil. Both are larger than life-size, and ideal for children to climb upon. Along the same lines, the giant python is something to behold!
For an example of the impact giant reptile sculptures can create, see the giant red-bellied black snake we made for a nature playground. We can also make replica habitats for real reptiles, like the artificial rock cave for reptiles at Gumbaya Wildlife Park.
Realistic reptile sculptures
All sculptures have been carefully modelled using museum techniques. The original forms are hand sculpted to include textures like skin and scales, then constructed using fibreglass. Finished pieces are coloured and painted with detailed characteristics to highlight each animal’s unique features.
Many of our reptile sculptures are so realistic it can be difficult to distinguish them from the real thing. If you don’t believe us, try putting this beautiful Lace Monitor Lizard sculpture in a tree, and watch the expressions of passers-by! Or what about a young crocodile resting by your garden pond? It’s a great way to remind people that these animals were around before we were!
Custom features and finishes
Although most of our clients want realistic reptile sculptures, sometimes we are asked for something a bit different. For example, see this colourful chameleon sculpture we did for a Gold Coast bar. Or maybe you want a gecko in silver leaf finish, or a funny crocodile cook sculpture?
If you would like custom-made reptile sculptures to suit your purpose or venue, get in touch. We would love to help create an iconic sculpture for your customers to talk about for years to come. We can make custom versions of any products in our reptiles catalogue – different sizes, poses, colours, or even different animals – just ask us!
