I scoured the internet for any bristolia fossil image I could find, then tried to find specimens that appeared to be about the same age. I looked at images created by Dr Sam Gon III that depicted various trilobite leg forms, and guessed which would be the most appropriate. I took the colour scheme from a plastic wind-up cockroach, 'cause why not?

I believe it was this rendition which finally prompted me to go out and seriously attempt to find one of my own. Much thanks!
