Nicholas Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Beautiful specimen, and I think working by hand is worth it if the results are that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Dactyll Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Crinoid Queen.....I agree with Nicholas regarding your prep... maybe the hand finish you do doesnt disturb the surrounding matrix to much and as a consequence doesnt detract your eye from the fossil itself.... Very nice and well done.... Cheers Steve... And Welcome if your a New Member... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
