I have a question on "restoration". I have a limestone slab from the Green River fm with a palm leaf imprint. I say imprint, because the leaves have no coloration remaining. I have been trying to decide on the best way to add color back so that you can actually see the leaves without needing some oblique lighting. Because of the porosity of the stone, I worry that trying to paint them will leach the paint outward and make very blurry looking leaves. I was thinking that using a very thin consolidate should seal the stone without obscuring the detail and allowing it to be painted over the top without leaching. Has anyone used a technique like this in the past? Any tips? Just as a note, this isnt a fossil for sale, so I'm not trying to deceive anyone as to quality, this is going on display in my home when complete.

Just going through the last of the items I'm framing for my kids, and printing out labels. These were some fish they picked up at the fish dig in Wyoming. I'm pretty sure the first two are Knightias? 1) 2) (My son learned not to toss a baton *in* the house, *over* the fossil table...) 3) Same fish? And is this upside down? 4) baby version? (also...is it upside down?) 5) and then this one I thought used to be a Phareodos before it blew up. But @FossilDudeCO thought it was a large Priscacara
