'cause nothing says old like fossil remains, that's what I went for and I love the result!
I used a ton of polishes for the background and I'm really sad the camera didn't capture the whole effect, but... I can tell you there were at least three different shades of yellow, some nudes and two different brown shades.
I did the fossil remains in acrylic paints and a detail brush and, for a first, I can tell you I'm happy with the result :)
How about you? What do you think of these?
Also, have a look at everyone else's designs on the theme (here) and if you'd like a recap of everyone's favourites so far, check Charlie's post about it here.
