#alien!circe

A height comparison of the Arctorian Syndicate leading quartet~ I really should have used a height comparison tool, though. Really I just wanted to illustrate roughly who was tallest and who was smallest, as well as get their colors down, so I just grabbed the complete poses from the sketches anyway.

Tytrixan Salizar is the tallest, but not by a whole lot over Tuapterran Katarina. Kat has about a head over Vipaerten Selina/Circe, and little Possadaw Aureline is the smallest.

And not to brag on myself or anything, but I really do like the idea of making Salizar’s chest plumage into a “cravat” type thing. c: I do wish I had taken the time to look for the pistol models from the film so I could have put one in Kat’s holster, though. But suffice it to say she does have one and Zen just forgot to draw it? xD I’ve also never been so stinkin’ happy with an anthropomorphic form for Kat as I am with this one! And she’s had a few! lol Colored lines are hard. o3o Leastways, the method I used made it seem so. There’s gotta be another way that doesn’t leave a one-pixel-wide stroke around the color blocks when setting the line layer to something like Overlay.

Finally got Circe figured out for the Etherium AU, too. xD

Alien!Circe hails from a crepuscular race known as Vipaertens. As a race, they excel at hunting with their sharp hearing and three nostril pairs; and maintain a mostly arboreal lifestyle thanks to their sticky fingers and clawed toes, ideal for whipping up the masts of ships relatively unaided by the shrouds, or over walls in pursuit of a target. Their skeletons are fairly malleable, enabling them to fit through spaces that would otherwise seem impossible. As long as they can fit their heads through it, their bodies can follow.
