    Wow, these are fabulous. I haven't read any of the Titan stories but you absolutely make me want to.

    And people wonder why Dr. Rhee seems to think human male coughing consists of a high-pitched scream... :evil:

    Please forgive my phasing into art director mode, but...: his tail seems to be a little too long, and maby a little too wavy. The tail serves as a counterbalance, and would be roughly the same length as the head+body above/in front of the hip joint. And while not board-rigid, it'd also be a little too stiff to get that slight slithery action yo have it doing (That's provided I remember text descriptions of how Rhee moves correctly, plus what I remember from assorted "talking to the experts" and "animating the dinosaurs" shorts from the Jurassic Park movies, King Kong, etc. I've tried to picture how Rhee moves from an animator's prespective. Your milage may vary.)

    Also, always important with non-human characters: work out how they wear their clothing: how they get into it, how it moves, etc. Not sucha big deal here, but nevertheless worth considering.

    Looking forward to a de-Disneyfied Hulian.

    Again, these are sketches, not finished art.

    Great work on these. I really like Ree & Riker. Nice adding the Reed Richards Gray hair.

    Really nice work. The first one is Ylira Modan, right?
    I'd love to see your depiction of Cethente.

    Why de-Disneyfie him? It's supposed to be an obvious reference.
    Just give Stitch two additional arms, put him in a Starfleet Suit, and you'll be fine. :)

    After some pin-ups/wallpapers, I'll tackle the secondaries. Huilan, Torvig, Hsuuri, Ogawa, etc.

    It's actually kind of meditative. each one of these things takes about ten or fifteen minutes. i do them on breaks from work.

    As I wrote, before, I am not familiar with the characters - but you have a very expressive style. Nice work!

    Nice art. Thank you for sharing. I'm another one who's not that familiar with the cast in this series, but with all these aliens, it looks like it's worth picking up.

    Excellent work. Riker has the beard back?

    Can I request some shots of the crew on the bridge of the Titan? Has anyone drawn the Titan's bridge yet?

    I've seen pictures of the design of the Titan, which I like. Would love to see you tackle it as well, if you can do ships.

    Again, great work!

    This is my first visit here. I really like your artwork. Since I am not familiar with the characters, I won't try to critique you. As others have said, you make me want to find the books they are based upon.

    Is that a new Titan design? It doesn't seem to match the "official" titan from the novel covers.

    It's a drawing of Sean's design, massively simplified.

    Fellas (or ladies).

    This is not a classroom situation or a job for which I've been contracted. I felt like doodling some pie in-the-sky spinning about the possibility of a TITAN animated series. That's it.

    There's no need to do deep crits here because:

    1) I will ignore them. I'm simply not taking the "work" seriously enough here to warrant crits and corrections. If the nacelles are off axis or too short for the body or the hull is too white or something, I don't actually care. Because....

    2) It's just for FUN. FUN.

    3) If it stops being fun I will stop doing it.

    If you feel something is off or not exactly as you pictured it in your mind you are very much invited to post your own version in this thread. See point #2.

    The more, the merrier.

    It's funny because I remember using your bridge design as a mental model when writing SoD. Some people were asking why Ailli had a co-pilot or co-navigator and I was like "There are two chairs and two consoles. Sean won the contest so there must be two stations there."

    As you can see from the wallpaper, I'm nowhere near as good at machines as figures and will probably be too lazy to devote the necessary time to a serious bridge shot.

    But, who knows?

    This is actually a lot of fun for me so I might get brave.

    Well for what it is worth, you have a great start here.

    Feel free to tap my brain if you want any input.
