mattbsharks Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Here is my first ever ammonite prep! Overall, I am pleased with how it turned out. I wanted to test how well my shark tooth restro experience would translate to other fossils. I got this lovely ammonite as part of a trade with @Ludwigia. I misplaced its ID so any ID help would be welcome as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macrophyseter Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Dammit Matt, give me your skills. That ammonite restoration is just too good If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM!
