The Ice Age Giants
Exhibition of realistic models and skeletons

GIGANTI, spol. s r.o. was established as a specialized company for the production and commercialization of the most realistic life-size models of animals from the Ice Age. At the beginning of its creation were efforts to connect the artists who create such models with scientists – palaeontologists, who ensure the professional quality of the work. The result of this collaboration are models that excel in their reality. In order to ensure truly high quality, we approached studio specialists who have experience with the high demands of international television crews and who carry out work at a sufficiently high level. The palaeontological expertise was provided by RNDr. Martin Mazuch Ph.D. from the famous
palaeontological department of the Faculty of Science at Charles University in Prague. At present, the company has more than thirty realistic historical models and their number is increasing every year.
