Sinopaleus Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I'm seeing a lot of good mosasaurs around here, why not post them in this thread for everyone to see? Here's a tooth, nothing really good, but a good starter to the thread Platecarpus ptychodon Middle-Late Cretaceous Phosphate Beds, Morocco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramo Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) It's kind of a carving. I looked into getting a cast, and it was just a little too much money. I realized I had most the parts, and they were almost all less than 3/4" thick. I just traced all the parts onto pine, and then went to work with a dremel on them a little. I made up the missing parts, and I just recently glued it all together, and stained it. I think I might sand it down a little and then restain again so it looks a little more "blotchy". Then again I might just leave it.

barefootgirl Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Here are a few of my Mosasaur teeth that I've found in the Sulphur River. 1 1 In formal logic, a contradiction is the signal of defeat: but in the evolution of real knowledge, it marks the first step in progress toward victory.

32fordboy Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) Though not near as cool as many of the specimens forum members have found, here's a Halisaurus skull with about 1/3 of the skeleton. It's cool as it is, but he will be artfully articulated after removal from the matrix. It's going to be a very long project. The specimen is from Morocco.
