artofextinction Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I made this trilo freehand on my lunch break at work (dental laboratory) I had some good pictures of Moroccan trilos to work from.I was thinking of painting them like Andy Warhol and putting them in my garden. Psychedelic fossil art anyone? ArtofExtinction ArtofExtinction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 That is way cool! Can you make one about 3 feet long?

Guest bmorefossil Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 that is very cool, i would also like to know if you could make bigger ones, it would be cool to use some as stepping stones (= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeD Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Now that makes me laugh for some reason. I really like the idea of using them for stepping stones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJB Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I have to say that is purty cool. Bigger ones would be super cool, and not just for stepping stones, but maybe one crawling up a wall in your house somewhere!!! By the way, what did you make those out of?
