#destiny fallen

On Psion post like this I forgot to write smth about the idea of them changing colours like cuttlefish bc of the emotions, but not that greatly, mb mostly on their head. Maybe I could do another post with this or not. It feels too ambitious for a hc, and very abrupt.

I added Eliksni with inspiration from Spider's body type. I saw him only clothed, so might be not perfectly accurate. Hive's bodies are a mix of Lucent and the other. The most changed part in them all is chitin (a little teeth and crests for some). Again, was not sure if to change them a lot. When drawing them I thought if they could adapt to the planet and change their chitin bc of this. But at the end it's not that serious again. And I don't think I've got the energy and enough knowledge to make a good explanation.

Some Eliksni on Kepler looked like its flora, as a camouflage (wanted to make a little comic from my gameplay abt it, this was very stupid), so they could be more specialized in it. I was not sure how to differ Eliksni and Hive in their coloration. The only difference is that Hive's body colours seemed to be more diverse than Eliksni's in the game, and so here.

I thought if Eliksni should have their belly chitin plate divided for them being able to bend better. But here I drew it canonically. Tho, this thought still haunts me. Wouldn't this chitin part interfere. Eliksni here could have gone into reptiles' inspiration. Like beaded dragon, rattlesnake, chameleon, maybe other. One of them has their setae (? if this hair isn't their accessories that they make and stick to their heads canonically) on the head evolved into plates like rhinos' horns.

When walking on the Moon to the shrine of Oryx, there was an interior that reminded me of xenomorph's ships. I think Hive might have similar vibes, and maybe I already wrote this somewhere, when talking about this bio-body-horror theme (like not only under tongues post). But when sketching the top middle Hive I didn't remember thinking abt xenomorphs, and more abt Lightbearer Lucent Wizards having their long helmets.

Krill and Hive are insane in the logical means of survival. Because of how they endure extreme and drastically different pressure in environments with other weather effects, when walking naked with their chitin.

I don't want to add nervous stuff and that it makes me nervous too to remember and to talk abt it with my mind state. And, at the same time, for some reason I don't endure to write less. So down here will go it.

Once just before continuing to draw it I thought that I had a small retinal burn(?). But then it didn't heal for a short time as it should, and this dot was exactly on the center, rippling. But after time it started to change its position and size and to come at lower side of the view. It made me very anxious, and my head started to ache with this. I've never had this thing with eyesight. Only eyes hurting after tiredness in front of the screen, having bad eyesight and other thing that was more explainable but could be triggering if to write in details. After some time I tried to draw again bc I can't just spend my time sitting and doing nothing, but my sight in these places still felt like a little weird or a tiny-bit blurry, irritatingly. And a headache was continuing, too much time spent in a vain with this. And then there was a bigger Russian attack on the city for 4 days, where my sleep became even worse than it was, and I needed to run for hiding and was sitting in torpor for a lot of times. And on another day I woke up bc of artillery explosions, and then my head started to hurt again uhh. I was very sleepy but felt bad for doing nothing.
