Crann Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I've done bits & pieces in the last few months, detailing etc, but found this a few days back, knew had a chance of good preservation inside due to the colour, spent about an hour on it, still not finished but came up good, any tips on finishing welcome, thanks.

Welcome to the club. I would include some type of magnification on the list of needed equipment. You need to prep with a minimum of 3x in order to keep from getting scribe marks all over the specimen. There's no way to effectively control the scribe without it. 2 Regards, Kris Global Paleo Services, LLC https://globalpaleoservices.com http://instagram.com/globalpaleoservices http://instagram.com/kris.howe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrangellian Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Are those scribe marks on the left side of the ammo, or some epifauna/bore marks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
