A Day at the Museum - Dem Bones

So as George has informed you all, we spent much of yesterday at the American Natural History Museum. Which is a wonderful place, full of wonders and MANY people too. Nevertheless we drew many fine sets of bones.

We started off in the prehistoric Mammals, this is as Gomphoterium, an ancestor of the modern Elephant.

Then I drew an ancient ground dwelling Sloth named after George Cuvier.

Then there was an amazing predator called the Amphigon or 'Ambiguous Dog' a massive Bear/Dog combo type thing.

Then I drew the Timitherium Megahamiltonii, though obviously a different sample from the one George Drew.

Then we moved onto Theropod Dinosaurs. This is a Ceratorsaurus skull. You can see the bony ridges where the nasal horns would have attached.

I did a marker sketch of one birdlike dinosaur and one dinosaur like bird.

Then we finish off with the schoolboys favourite Tyrannosaurus Rex.
It was a great day , we should do it again sometime.
