Actually looks more like the Stormtroopers from episode IV, A New Hope. Or Lord Vader's helmet after it was melted. OK, I'll give you that one!

For now i am not able to tpload any pics on tff. Yay!! I know it’s a random mishmosh of items I threw together just to give you something! So the ammonite, I had purchased unprepped ammos from Ludwigia to try to prep. I don’t have the tools so used an exacto knife. That is one of the first ammonites I prepped The quartz like crystal is actually dogtooth calcite. It was found here in Alberta. The petrified wood, my girls found in the river here in Edmonton and wanted to add them. Not sure if there was agatized wood but it’s also from Alberta. The ferns are from the Pennsylvanian and just neat haha Was there a piece of ammolite too? That’s also from Alberta lol. I tried to put as many items from my location as possible and on the fly to boot haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, I thought those ferns looked familiar. The wood does too - I've got identical stuff my grandpa collected in Drumheller when he was young. Where in AB is the selenite from?
