A little bit of modding. Opinions please

Added a gorgeous sapphire top hat crystal to these two beauties. Can’t stop looking at them. What do you think?

I like it. Those raised retro crystals are alright.

IMHO it doesn't really work with the one on the right. The standard sapphire has a little bit to it that strikes a nice balance but this one is too raised.

I think it’s a great look for the Turtle.

That's a nice looking mod. I like that look for both pieces.

I love the Top Hat crystals and was thinking of adding one to a future Turtle mod. But the mother of all domes seems so appropriate.
