Just a quick one today, a Horansi alien also sculpted by Eli. As I was painting him I was calling him the "drunken, vagrant alien bird-man".
I imagined him gesturing with his arms like crazy while incoherently trying to get his point across to any random person on the street.
He was fun to paint up, lots of pouches and plenty of personality too. Although Eli had said he never intended them to have beaks, it just looked right. I've got two more "Eli alien civilian" sculpts to go then I'll be switching gears considerably. Stay tuned!
Nah, this guy is definitely sporting a beak. Nice job, Mik. I've got a couple of these trouble makers primed and partially painted myself.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jay, I didn't think about a pair of these. I'll keep an eye out for them!
DeleteYou'll find them standing nervously in line at the the ticket booth of Master Lippi's Circus; and, a little inebriated and loud on a Saturday night at the Jobbca Brothers Starway Diner on old Space Route 399. These two guys are an accident just waiting to happen!
DeleteDrunken, gesturing like crazy with arms, incoherent......that's ringing too many alarm bells!
ReplyDeleteIt's like a flashback...but with alien DNA!
