Huge 6.7060 inch megalodon tooth

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.

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.

Again, that looks quite realistic. What type of paint coloring do you use? Acrylic?

Thanks, I use acrylic paints from the craft store near me

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!

If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM!

It was after. I wish I had a 7 incher!
