Here is a do-it-yourself project for the Paleozoic collector who owns a spare belemnite. Will everyone who fits this profile, please raise your hand?   A Bullyland belemnite (Jurassic - Cretaceous) has been customized to resemble an orthocone, Endoceras (Ordovician). In the photo, the belemnite is light colored, and the orthocone is striped. Milliput putty is recommended. Suggestions? |

That means you took a real fossil to combine it with a Bullyland belemnite?!
Now that is a cool idea!

I apologize for confusing the presentation by including a fossil belemnite in the photo. It was used to prop up the figures. The orthocone is a Bullyland belemnite that has been modified to change its appearance. The parallel figures demonstrate before and after customization. |

Oh, I understood that completely wrong! But hey, why not cut one figure's head off and glue it to a fossil belemnitt that fits its size? Wouldn't that look cool?

Now, it's time for you to use a Schleich Glyptodon to make a Doedicurus!

Nice modification! I Hooray for milliputt putty and artsiness. Great idea for a modification and hmm... maybe I'll try it someday to make a Baculite.  |
