#euoplocephalus — Public Fediverse posts

I was challenged late 2021 to use a different wheel base for a new build. It was short and wide. I took one look at it and thought “perfect for Anklyosaurus”. Here is the end result
#Nodosaurus #Ankylosaurus
#Euoplocephalus #Gastonia ( designed as a gift to

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

Dinosaurs were a funny bunch. Here's a parade from DINOSAUR BEHAVIOUR (2023), by Prof Michael Benton (published by Princeton University Press).

This weeks #Lego #FossilFriday is #Euoplocephalus

Euoplocephalus was found in 1897 in Alberta.

In 1902 it was named #Stereocephalus. But that was found already be the name given to an insect (like most cool names).

In 1910 it was changed to Euoplocephalus.

In 1971 Walter Coombs concluded that all anklyosaurid remains from the #Campanian of North America belonged to Euoplocephalus.

Recently paleontologists have reverted several back to their own species.

This weeks #Lego #Dinosaur of the week will be #Euoplocephalus

Each build come with a fact sheet, and parts list.
