Great Start, Suirebit! I really like what you did for the head (and the glowy part on the chest ). I might add a bit of detail to separate the cloak from the body but very cool anyway.

My entry for thisone

[Alletun]

First for some comments:

Suirebit: very cool design, but a bit dark which makes it hard to see.

Rahakasvi: if it wasn't for the horns, your alien would look almost cute with it heart shaped head wonderful concept.

Hexonal: wow really like what you did with the mouth and general design for this alien. Very nice execution. The markings around it's eye adds a good finishing touch to it.

And now for my own entry:

i think I'll have to do a little explanation about it. I was doodling around looking for a good concept for an alien, but I liked none of the things i came up with. I remembered while watching tv the other day, the speaker using the words "illegal aliens" about mexicans crossing the US border without permit. So here is my Illegal Alien



Photoshop
Wacom
photo ref used (is that allowed?)
4 hours

Hopefully I'll get working on a "real" alien if i have the time.

Alletun: Thanks.. My alien is an adult. Baby bly-ish creatures doesn't have horns yet

Your idea is excellent. Never though of that. You have an amazing skill of using colors. (Not this one alone)

Hi people!

1. Suirebit - great cocept.Add a bit more highlights to the robe and maybye make the red eyes(correct me if I'm wrong) more visible(but it's a not important detail) .Realy great job!

2. Rahakasvi - nice idea.One thing,if I may suggest,is that you could play more with highlights and shadows to give your painting more depth.Anyway nice idea. Keep on trucking !

3. Hexonal - excellent one! It reminds me the "Predator". You could add some reflections and dampness to the eyes,to give it a more believable look.Anyway it,s a really,really,rrreeaaally great concept!

4. Alletun - man, I've expected everything...almost everything . Btw excellent painting (as allways).

Ok. My turn (took about 3h + PS + tablet). "Enjoy"... :



Best regards!

[Jim#1000]

After some thought on the subject I decided to make another.

I loved the absurd nature of my first alien but it was to generic.
After some thought on what kind of absurd alien would have a portrate of themselvs painted I came up with this. hope you like it.
2.5 hours photoshop + tablet
