And so the Riversleigh #paleostream concluded! Lots of weird marsupials in this one. Since we chose to depict here a Miocene faunal zone you will not come across your typical Australian megafauna, like Diprotodon and Dromornis, that stuff came later.
We are looking at their ancestors, before the rainforest collapse.
Here some detail shots. Next time we will visit the Kimmeridge clay, a late Jurassic marine ecosystem.
Rewarded myself by the beginning work on my ball jointed doll project and the minute I start priming I run out of Mr Super Clear UV flat and then a thunderstorm happens. At least the lack of paint stopped me from spraying in the humidity I guess ...
-Top pictured is one of the Burrell photographs. Which were edited to be close ups to depict a 'thylacine in the wild' later debunked to be a captive thylacine.
-Middle pictured is the Wilfred batty thylacine which is the last recorded thylacine shot in the wild.
-Bottom pictured is the Beaumaris zoo family group.
