Sorry, im not that great of a drawer. This is just a quick outline sketch of my alien, no details added. I plan to fix the bottom torso and add some sort of weapon. Suggestions and comments would be nice.

PS: It was originally drawn on a lined piece of paper so I had to erase the blue lines w/ photoshop. At first you'll see the marks of the eraser so you'll have to zoom once, only once to see it better. You get the idea of the alien. Srry bout the eraser job on photoshop, looks better on paper.

Info about my alien:
He has no eyes, as you can see.
He walk with his fists and arms, like a gorrila
Has no feet... as you can see
The Web thingy on his arms are sorta like fins, he like an amphibious alien
Supposed to be larger than Onos, size wise <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Thats all for now

    Err....he looks like some deformed thing from an Alien movie....cut in half <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> .

    Best thing to give it some life at this point is to add eyes. Eyes always seem to make a drawing a hellza lot better than any other detail. But that's just me - I draw lots of heads an' such <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> .

    ahh, there she is. well i like the basic design, but the back seems to cut off too sharp like there was something there at one time. maybe make a spikey tail like from A|ien cuz thats what the shape reminds me of.

    I'd agree with the previous comment about eyes. Depending on where you put them they can reallt influence the perceived scariness/intelligence/bloodlust/ability to see in an animal...

    Use a sharper pencil it creates a better finish...obviously

    Also on the eyes... not adding pupils will make them scarier looking.

    thnx for all your opinions guys. I'll try to fix it when I have time, lots of school work. Ill post a new pic when im done.

    P.S.

    Some info about the back: I was originally trying to make it like his waist-down area was cut off so there would be dead skin and stuff showing at his rear. I gave up, couldn't pull it off. If someone can help me achieve this, that would be nice. Like I said, trying to make him look like his waist-down was ripped off.

    if his body was ripped apart....he wouldn't be walking upright on his arms, that's for sure. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    if you really want him ripped in half, he has to be either staggering or laying on the ground. then, for a really cheap way of drawing him cut in half, draw out the outline of his full form and then just erase half of it <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    i kid, you'll probably screw up the positioning if you do that. just keep drawing until it feels right; that's what being an artist is about, knowing when it "feels right". <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
