Description
I had this concept floating around in my head of a turtle or tortoise either from a strange alien land, or from deep inside the earth, that had its shell become mineralized over the years and crystalized like a geode so much so that the crystal became a part of the turtle or tortoise and uses its as natural camoflage and and adapts to the coloration (also possibly due to its diet containing the same minerals). I don't know if that makes any real sense, but as art i don't think it has to...and Pretty crystal tortal!! LOL

I wasn't happy with the way the rocks he is sitting on turned out...i may fiddle them more I was thinking of trying to make them look more like coral that you would see under the water. I might make more of these useing different color schemes and different types of crystals for different tortoise and turtles.

I have a speedpaint video of this one on my youtube channel, come see it here:

I also tried this design out on a website called Vida, the products there are really cool...but kind of pricey, but you can check them out here:
