Description
OK, one more piece of palaeoart - but no dino! Pretty ordinary....
For the same museum as the lungfish pic, also intended for a small plaque next to a model.
Another watercolour done very quickly!...damn I remember that period well...I was still studying my science degree and had to get over 20 of these things in a month or two....all via email (800km away). Still the one big consignment I've done so far.
I'd send sketch for comments which would come back a week later, so I'd move on to the next ones while waiting....this cycle was repeated at least 4 times for each fish. I think I went slightly mad for a while there. Didn't have the heart to tell them I hadn't seriously used watercolours before. So it was all experimental. I seem to seek stress out.
Can't remember stats on this species - I'll post them soon for all you hard core palaeonerds out there.
Basically, it's from an extinct group of called placoderms....imagine a shark shoved into a turtle shell and stick two crab legs on each side. I know nothing about fashion, but I'm sure anyone that does would say these things don't go together well. Crazy fish...
