Armored swamper


This is a Swamper subspecies, but covered in light scale armor. For moving this creature uses its tentacles and muscles on its belly. This is slow creature who eats plants and some small shelled creatures. This creature lives in swamps, and uses its scales for protection from surface creatures. If its under attack it can dig itself in mud leaveing only armored back above mud level.

  1. Your critter designs don't stop, do they? Lovely beasty that thing is.

    Might I ask how it is you've done that scaled back? Just rolled up dots of putty lightly pressed on? Looks good.

      Yup :) Each scale is added individually with needle and magnifying goggles :) Hellish job, mate!

  2. Sweet! Can these slimy swamp things carry a troopers/smugglers/etc field gear? And can they be tamed, or are they tamed from birth?

    1. Not sure if they can be tamed to carry some gear, because these armored swampers can live only in swamps.
