  1. Nice that you did both sides, well done! Posted 3 years ago
    1. Thanks...just don't compare to your images ;P. The "fun" thing about this specimen was that it was broken completely in half -- the abdomen was detached. I use the clay to stick it together for the sake of the photo. Can you tell? Posted 3 years ago
      1. I absolutely cannot tell, well done. And the comparison in images is not entirely fair of course, different magnifications. Posted 3 years ago
