Creatures: Fire Crab

As we know from Newt Scamander's "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", the Fire Crab, despite its name, actually greatly resembles a large tortoise with a heavily jeweled shell. It's native to Fiji.

Creating this Fantastic Beast with Lego was inspiring particularly because we haven't seen it (yet) in any of the films, and very little overall (only in the games), so I could run my imagination freely and decide for myself how exactly it can "shoot flames from its rear end when attacked". I also love Lego "jewels" and collect any 1x1 colorful shiny element whenever possible, for no reason, so I was hyped this model would provide a reason to use them! Hope you all enjoy the Fire Crab, as much as I enjoyed the last couple of days making it!
