Starting a size chart of some of my favourite mesozoic animals, here are the roughly human sized ones.
Left to right:
Coelophysis, Phosphorosaurus, Oryctodromeus, Teraterpeton, Istiodactylus

If you like the look of these #fossils and want to see what they look like outside the multi-ton rocks, there are many carefully prepared and displayed in Canterbury Museum (and some in Te Papa): #mosasaur, #elasmosaur and also nearby formations' #penguins

Finished up the top mosasaur, and then wondered if it would look better in red tones instead of blue/grey tones. So, now I have two! It's a school of mosasaurs. A pod? What do you call a group of mosasaurs? A fluke?
All natural wood colors, no stains. Top: blue mahoe, buckeye burl, turquoise, blue gum. Bottom: bloodwood, chakta viga, yellowheart. Both with ebony & holly eyes, with birdseye maple throat.

The evolution of a Paleo Pines inspired mosasaur intarsia piece:
Step one: pick the wood types / colors and cut out all the pieces! Here we have blue mahoe, buckeye burl, blue gum, birdseye maple, holly, and ebony.
Step two: glue all the pieces together!

Step three: sand the whole thing!
Step four: clean out the burl centers where the wood is soft and punky.
Step five: tape around the edges to keep epoxy from running all over my workstation, then mix up #ecopoxy epoxy and embed #turquoise within the holes.
Step six: wait. Ugh. The worst. Don't poke, don't make dust, just wait.

If anyone was wondering what this beast could *possibly* be, Hall identifies it as βrelative of #Clidastes β β a #Mosasaur living in Lake Michigan in the modern day. The utter dissimilarity of appearance is unexplained in-text; evidently Hall relied on a verbal description from David Peters (?!?!). Hall apparently fails to recognize the #LakeMonster was seen off Chicago and regards an 1867 newspaper as entirely reliable and not prone to any exaggeration or falsification.
