Description Yummy : )

I've just really wanted to paint a yellow grublike alien for awhile.
I pictured it an 8 ft tall sentient alien being with a rather harsh outer appearance.
Only thing is it looks rather smaller than that, oh well!

A little different from what I'm used to seeing of you, but refreshingly interesting! Especially love the colouration and the feel of its skin; you nailed down the texture of it pretty amazingly.

This is excellent, Kiwi! Looks real professional. I'd love to see more critters like these! I love it. You're very skilled with drawing your own creature and animal designs. The painting is very beautiful here, and the marks on its skin, like by the tail-area. It does look like a cute small animal to me though ^^ I agree with the poster who said adding some atmospheric fog in the background could help give it that sense of scale. Or you could add a little person to show the scale too.

Thanks a lot! I appreciate it! And I think you're right, it does look a little small, but I think it turned out okay in its own way anyways.
Thank you!

You're welcome! I think it looks fine as a small critter, just responding to your comment in your description about wanting it to look larger. (:

Ah, that's kind of terrifying. Does it change into Mothra?

But no, seriously, that mouth is rather freaky.

No, it engages in lofty conversation and fills out its bills too just like everyone else.
Even if it looks like it's going to bite someone's head off (it may not actually have a steadfast moral code)
Thanks!

Looking good. I think the way to make it look larger would be to have it fade out in the distance (just a little). The larger an object is, the more it will fade away as it recedes. But I'm loving the colors and contrast, and the detail is beautiful. Epic work!

hmm, I'll take that into account, I appreciate you saying something.

It's awesome! I love how you did the eyes and the slimy-looking parts. Very realistic.
