mattbsharks Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 The root turned out a little funky but I still like this tooth overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Again, that looks quite realistic. What type of paint coloring do you use? Acrylic? Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 My only constructive criticism would be that you tend to make all of the roots more U shaped, rather than V shaped, and the lobes too round. They are usually more squared off. Looks pretty good, though.

RJB Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I agree, the root does look a bit funky, but its a heck of a lot better than I could do. Just keep up the good work Matt. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macrophyseter Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Despite being a bit inaccurate, that's a bootifool tooth. Also, when you told me you measured 6.7 inches, was is before restoration or after? Because if it was before, you probably just made a 7 incher!
