Day 5: Borealopelta
I went speculative on the βredβ coloration of this extremely well-preserved fossil, and I have little information on the fossilized Cretaceous flower I found other than it sort of looked like a tulip?
[img id] Digital cel-shaded art of a Borealopelta, an ankylosaurus most well known for being βmummifiedβ in stone. The dinosaur sits in an isometric, square chunk of sunlit meadow, surrounded by purple tulip-like flowers stretching upwards. The borealpelta is largely peach-colored with neon pink knobs lining its armored shell. It barely fits on the chunk of earth. Its long tail, which lacks the typical βknobβ associated with ankylosaurs, curls around the resting spot from behind. Watermark: hmcgill.art [/id]
