Note sure if this is a technically a mod but we now have a cool alternative Jurassic Park translite available:

There will also be a 3D Jurassic Park translite, same image as this 2D, available in the near future. They are a lot more expensive to produce however.

Hmm, these look a lot different from the originals.
We were going to produce a mini kit for JP but held off once I heard CPR were doing a set. Apart from the color differences and light pass issues the lines look a little heavy as if the art has been autotraced in Illustrator, hence why some detail is lost.
I think we'll go ahead with our mini kit and get as close to original as possible.
Quoted from Lonzo:Why do a mini kit? Just do the whole thing.
Because most people don't need a full set of plastics, they need the commonly broken pieces. A mini kit serves this and is much cheaper.
Quoted from Lonzo:I think CPR just has a problem with blue. The blues are too dark in JP, LW3 and F14. That's just the ones that I know about.
And as far as the mini kit goes. If you have broken plastics then the rest probably don't look that good. When I restore a game, I want all new stuff. Why not have both options?
Blue is actually the hardest of all colors to match when you're designing something on computer to be printed.
May look into making a full set available but no promises. CPR have got these.

Quoted from Meloyelo51:And seeing this from a possible competitor being objective, is a perfect reason I want to stay objective myself and not go saying they suck etc. I am not an artist, designer, or print setter so I don't see the many hours behind the scenes it takes to pull them off. If you're going to do an entire shop job, my opinion is they'll be fine/not noticed, but I am more leary of any mixing with stock side by side after seeing more comments.
Yeah, that's exactly where I'm coming from here. Somebody put a lot of hours in to making this JP set and while they may be slightly different from the original, they will look fine as a complete set.
For us to make a few pieces available which can drop in to the original set is only an idea at this stage. Nothing in production yet.
