NZ_Fossil_Collecta Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Wow! Awesome trilobites! Welcome to the forum. I'm CRAZY about amber fossils and just as CRAZY in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Very nice specimens. Welcome to the Forum. Do you collect any other types of fossils, or do you focus on trilobites?

fossilized6s Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Very nice prep work. Do you use paint to highlight them?

Wrangellian Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Very nice, and interesting to someone who hasn't seen any from that area before. I'm also curious about your prep method - The parallel scratches look like you're just using a wire brush, but the results are better than I would expect from that method! (I see marks from an engraver, too?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
