Character concept2|Machinima

Follow up to the previous post (in which I shown various thumbnails). After consultation with Elliot and Kath we agreed, that a 'tall alien' will be a cross between numbers 2 (because of eyes) and 9 (overall silhouette), and 'chubby alien' - 1, 8, 10 and 19.

'Tall alien' (Captain) development - I've made him a bit taller than the two previous versions. Initially I wanted to keep spikes as a part of his uniform, but after another consultation with other team members we agreed on getting rid of them. Moreover, I've added little horns/antennas on side of his head, belt with pouches and tried to keep his uniform design to look military and show his status (general, captain of this ship)

'Chubby alien' (for some reasons I like to call him Blob) development - no futher iterations needed. With this designs I've tried to adapt various elements from other designs - e.g. dotty patern on his skin, pear-shaped body, antennas, big claws. Blob is a much more lower rank alien, which manifests thru his lack of proper clothing (basically he is naked, expect for the belt-bag), probably one of ship engineers. His antennas are more like actual corals and wobble as he walks around.

Final designs and size comparison. It is also a final design for Captain.


Orthographic views for both aliens. Since Captain is more important and advanced, he wears a special back pack and helmet that filtrates air and also gives him all needed nutritions. Blob doesn't have mask, air is filtrated thru wobbly antennas and he have to carry his tools and food in backpack and pouches.
