Anna Chekovsky has requested permission to translate some of the pages of this blog into French at http://www.teilestore.de/edu/ . Initially there was an issue with copyright of images and permissions had to be sought. In the process, this put me back in touch with Bruce Mohn, the well renowned skeletal reproduction sculptor. His portfolio of work has expanded considerably since 2009 and I am very impressed by the superb quality of his models.
His model of Pterodactylus Antiquus represents a skeleton based on several good specimens of this, the first known pterosaur species, giving it a very modern stance based on current research.
Equally, the model of
Rhamphorhynchus muensteri is a classic reproduction sculpture of the famous Solnhofen Slate pterosaur skeleton.
I am now starting to develop pages based on people who are able to offer such items as would grace any museum of repute. The reproduction pages are hopefully going to develop as time progresses.
