This is a sketch I did of a species called Noropian Gorts. I was trying to come up with something terrifying but not in the typical way. Most go for scary teeth, but I recalled watching a tv show about “The Night Stalker” and my wife commented on how creepy his hands were because they were so unusually large. This has always stuck with me so all my really creepy characters have giant hands. If you look carefully, you can see this creature also has a second set of hands for more technical work. To get an idea of scale, the ship Ralf is using to destroy Earth was originally a Noropian flagship. Ralf must climb three or four steps to get up to the control panels, the same control panels Gorts use the second set hands at their waist to operate.
Hey there! Just posted a promotional video trailer to the “About the Comic” page (see link in top nav bar) for anyone who hasn’t seen it. I made this a few years back when I was using Flash 8 and had just started shopping my comic around the syndicates. I purchased a great sound track for it (which totally makes the video) from a royalty free music site called Shockwave Sound, so make sure your speakers are turned up!
This is a sketch of a mysterious species called the Tassili. They are not caporial creatures and because of that they are often the substance of many myths, though many choose to ignore the possibility of their existence. But Ralf seems to hold a certain curiosity for one of them.
This is just one in a series of aliens I developed by looking at historical references from cave paintings to Biblical descriptions. This one happens to be my favorite from that study (Ralf is technically my favorate alien, but he was developed on his own). There was a cave painting in a desert region (which the name is based on) which some said looked like a man with a helmet on, but to me it looked like a giant eye. So I thought that would be a cool look for a “watcher” type alien and mixed it with some other references and this is what I came up with. Can anyone guess what the other reference (specifically) is?
