Trilobite Stamp



Did these for my Illustration Styles and Concepts class with C. F. Payne. We were designing a postage stamp based on the state we grew up in. Since they are the state fossil, and in the original movie they found one in Godzilla's footprint ;), I decided to do a trilobite. I was originally going to do mastadons since they also lived in Ohio, but then I found out they're Michigan's state fossil, so that would have caused some heads to roll.

The one on the top is the original 2-color piece we did for practice and the final is on the bottom.

Here are the pics I used for reference: https://www.juniorgeo.co.uk/images/trilobite-model.jpg and http://www.fossilmuseum.net/Fossil_Galleries/TrilobitesCanada/Greenops-boothi/Greenops-boothi-1024.jpg
