Alien Pose Prompts

I was thinking about how it can be difficult to figure out our own creatures' anatomies because there are no direct references to draw from, and how I tend to draw my aliens in the same poses, and boom, this happened. Prompts to practice and push the limits of your alien's anatomy :) Aimed at sophonts, but a lot of them can apply to non-sapient beasties too.

my mutual wanted me to post this one here :)

[isopods-daily]

Do you actually keep isopods? Or you're just passionate about them?

No, sadly I don't keep any as of right now. I do however go to the forest to look at them in their natural habitat quite often! :]

Obviously I don't get to see as many species then, mostly o. asellus and p. scaber, so I have been thinking about buying some pods, but I don't really have the time at the moment.

A compilation of the bug sketches process

This is my first video, but i'm working on my editing skills!

[zzztlk]

Did you draw this? I can't tell if it was done traditionally or digitally but I am enamoured with the texture. And it's just so cute look at it .

What art program do you use? And will you ever consider dropping the brushes that you used to make this ? 😊

Yes and yes! I made it on procreate, the brushes and textures I use and all that stuff can be found in my faq tag but for this piece I think I also went into procreates halftone effect thingy and applied it over parts of it. I also did liquify>crystals like I do with a lot of my other stuff to create an ink bleed effect
