An illustration of an alien raptor anthro character emerging from their crashed space ship in a wooded, mountainous area just as a storm is about to roll in. The character as lavender skin and a white mane not unlike that of a horse’s, and long sharp ears. His vessel is sleek (aside from the damage) and made of a shiny chrome-like material. He is speaking into a small communicator while looking out unto the hazy mountain range beyond. Leaves fly in the wind as the coming storm creeps in, choking out the reminding light of the setting sun peeping through the canopy.

Super fun piece where I was given the opportunity to explore a scene featuring this client’s character. We had some rowdy storms come through the area the week prior, so I might or might not have taken some inspiration from that.

An alternative version before we did some tweaks that lead to the final.

A rough draft of a illustration of an alien raptor anthro character emerging from their crashed space ship in a wooded, mountainous area just as a storm is about to roll in. Much of the details are simple and loose as it is a draft.

The details, while still under rendered, are a bit more clear here than in the previous draft. A rough draft of a sleek space vessel. The ship is shiny and minimalist, with organic, sloping curves that come to sharp points. The silhouette is loosely inspired by a leaf or a plant pod.

And some additional process shots of the piece in its draft stages, and a rough concept sketch of the character’s ship.
