10 000 BC: Mammoth Hunter's Village
For Roland Emmerich's 2008 film 10 000BC I worked on this set first by designing this hut in a scale model, then sculpting the fairly accurate mammoth bones by hand with a team.

Design maquette vs. final set build
We borrowed both African and Indian elephant bones from Iziko Cape Town Natural History museum for reference to sculpt the scaled up mammoth bones used in constructing the sets.
