Anyone here particularly good at drawing concept art for freaky looking alien-types, specifically flying ones?
I don't know if anyone does this as a hobby, but if you have anything you could either scan or direct me to, I'd definitely appreciate it.
Why do I need this? I have a 3D modeler buddy who finds having concept art before he models something helps leaps and bounds for creating stuff like this and he needs to make some.

And I can play the Euphonium.
And conduct.
And I can act.
I'm not that bad at video games, either.
Oh, you don't want my talent? Ok...
I guess I'll just move along

I'd think that anything flying and freaky looking would suffice, but insect-like would be a plus.

I almost made a comment about how most people here probably weren't wearing pants to begin with.

That's well done, for sure, but I was looking for something that looks less civilized and humanoid. He could probably use that for one design in particular, but right now, we need bug types which are more "monstrous". Like zerg, the alien from Alien, something generally unsettling to look at (the more unsettling the better).
What did you need, by the way?

Showed it to the modeler: he loves it. If you can complete it, I'd appreciate it.

But Torque experience generally denotes some manner of programming experience.

Keep in mind its crappy as all hell.
I call it:
The creature was inspired by "Mothra", a giant Moth that appeared on SB's backyard a couple of summers ago.
Its an electric type Pokemon, I mean alien creature. The tips of the wings shoot electricity bolts. The lines and the blue dots are random bits of energy flowing throughout the wings.
It doesn't beat Furball of Death, that's for sure.

I love it! Don't even worry about it not being realistic, concept art doesn't need to look real it just needs to show an idea. Just look at the art work we see for Pixar movies they never look any where near realistic to what we see in the movies. Also you saw what I did with the furball of death.
Anyway, great work I love the style. Keep it up.
