This is one of my favourite fossil preps so far! It was really awesome working on this rare lateMiocene Pliocene fossil turtle and just goes to show that you never know what you will find!

The next step is to get it CT scanned and then into a public collection (museum) so that it can be studied further.

Total time to prep it was around 120 hours air scribe work and roughly 30 35 acid cycles.
