The Krystal Archive is a repository for official and fan works of Krystal, everyone's favorite blue vixen. We also bring you the latest Krystal-related news and information. The Krystal Archive stands for the age-independent appreciation of Krystal as a character, so this site is rated PG. There are some major spoilers here and there about the Star Fox games, so be prepared.
Click one of the links in the left navigation bar to get started. It's all pretty self-explanatory. The latest news is below. I hope you enjoy it here!
Still confused about who this Krystal person is? Try this article. Want to help out the Krystal Archive? This is what I need.
Okay guys. I took time out of my busy schedule to do these this afternoon. I probably won’t be able to do any more until the end of the month because I’ve got a massive presentation due in 1.5 weeks, and I’m just getting started (I’ve read like 300 pages of an OpenGL book in the last two days). It will be an AI project based on 3D world streaming techniques. There’s a lot to do.
Hope you all enjoyed 4th of July more than I did! :)
As number 4! The news comes a little late, as this story was posted in June of 2007, but nevertheless, The Furtean Times, an online furry newspaper, has ranked Krystal as number 4 out of 50 of the most popular anthropomorphic characters, as voted on by members of DA, FA, and their own community. I’m not entirely sure how accurate the commentary is on each character (Sonic more well known than Mario? Are you sure about that?), but the author is pretty accurate on Krystal, acknowledging that she’s more than eye candy. Additionally, Fox McCloud ranked at #2.
Congratulations to both. I knew they were popular, but to be that close to the top is very telling about the crazy fans the Star Fox community has.
I wish to thank someone for bringing this story to my attention, but wouldn’t you know it, the note I made of who to give credit to is missing. Whoever told me about this story, thank you, and please contact me so I can give you proper credit.
Reader of the site, the_canadian92, contacted me a little about a personal project of theirs. It’s called SmashBrosX, a 2D sprite-based version of the popular Super Smash Bros. series with new characters. There are plans to have Krystal as a playable character, so I thought I would let you guys know about it. the_canadian92 also sent me some of the Krystal sprites which will likely be used in the creation of the final sprites.
Now that certain 3D models of Krystal have now become commonplace, and the different nature of films made with them, I will be separating them into their own section on the Fanfilms page.
This video is of Iivaitte’s attempt to make the Krystal model do river dancing with only very limited success. They did this without keyframes. It’s called “Beta Krystal River Dancing.”
In another fanfilm by kamekazifox, “Starfox Adventures: The Last Cerinian” he’s making another reference to a popular series. Only this time, it’s to my favorite anime/cartoon series right now; Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Okay guys. I’ve had a few fanfilms I haven’t put up yet because of the time involved. Now I’m putting them all up, one day at a time (posted to the future and all that). There are about six of them.
Our first fanfilm is called “Indiana Fox and the Kingdom of the Krystal Skull” by kamekazifox, which makes an obvious connection between the Indiana Jones movies and the adventure-style gameplay of Star Fox Adventures.
For the first time since December 2006, I’ve added new Preshopped Images. I’ve added three from Command and that recent new one from Adventures. That’s all the preshopped images I plan on doing until new official renders come out.
(If you couldn’t tell from the extreme numbers of posts lately, I’ve been going through my Krystal Archive To Do file with a fury!)

Thank you everyone who volunteered and did fanfiction reviews for the site. I will keep you in mind for future reviews. The fanfiction section has finally be updated with the fictions I had left to review, totaling four new ones.
It’s hard to believe, but there was actually another official render of Krystal out there that, up until about three weeks ago, I had never seen in my almost three years of paying attention to such things (at least at a usable size). We have CloudRunnerLX and Game Hiker to thank for bringing this new render to the galleries.
