Dinosaur Cake

The internal structure is PVC pipe, wood for the back/cake stand and a bent metal frame to support the head.
It is made with 40% cake and 60% rice krispy treats.
I covered all the hardware in aluminum foil and started adding the rice krispy treats and the cake.
After covering the sculpted cake in fondant, I painted the whole cake in royal icing for texture and to conceal any seams.
I airbrushed the cake starting with a sand colour, then greens and finally browns. I hand painted the eyes and I added the teeth last to keep them white.
