Just finished this lovely little fish. My client bought it at a fossil show in Munich, they were originally from Lebanon. But we don't have more information.

I don't often prepare ammonites, and this #Paranioceras is the largest one I've had the honour to prepare unfortunatelyit is missing its center. Found in Charmouth, UK.

Unboxing jacket 1 of 4. The age and location of these jackets are known, unfortunately, which way round or what is in them is unknown. And the original plaster of this specific specimen started to fall apart, to the one is extra tricky to work with. #devonian #fish #fossil #fossilfriday #teeth

When you OG prep box isn't big enough for your current project #Devonian #psammosteid so you hijack your partners desk. Thank you @palaeo-olly.bsky.social for your desk and help.

This Devonian osteostracan (a type of jawless fish). This one was prepared from the underside and you can see its little eyes from the inside.

This lovely #Coccosteus was a placoderm, or armoured fish, which lived in the seas of the Devonian (~400 million years ago). This one was found in the Caithness Flagstones at Achanarras - Scotland. #fossilfriday 106 hours of prep time.
