Crystal Turtles !


Just like I said, I didn't paint any of what I should be painting but felt the urge to get these crystal critters done !
They're the Ferrus Testudines from Krakon Games and just feel right to have with the crystals I've painted so far so that's a good thing to have done !


I don't know what the 2 of them are doing to those rocks (maybe absorbing minerals) and I'm not sure I want to know but as they are, they're fine, it was a single night's work so everything pretty rough but I needed to get those done quickly to avoid the guilt of painting something else. And they look fine enough for NPCs and terrain I think.
Great little pieces to have, one day I'll find a way to use in a scenario I'm sure !

  1. Very cute! I like the sense that they've evolved to mimic the crystals of their environment. How did you paint the crystal elements?

    1. AP's marine blue and PA turquoise are very compatible so I used them mostly and added extreme highlights of ulthuan grey on the edges.

  4. Tiens ? C'est très original ces trucs et ça sort vraiment de l'ordinaire avec des teintes comme ça ^^

    1. Merci à toi !
      C'est simple et rafraichissant et je pense que ça apportera un touche sympa sur une table (qu'il faut donc faire) ! ^^

    1. Cheers, I think in the case of crystals, edge highlights make or break the effect really.

  7. The purples go very well with the turquoise/blue crystals.

    1. Thanks, funnily enough it took me some time to find the right skin tone and when I did, I realised Ross had done the same on the studio ones ! ^^
