Since our last contest was about animals in SF, I thought I'd take this one to the other end of the spectrum. This one is for the Sufficiently Advanced Alien, whose technology and/or highly-evolved intelligence and/or psionic powers and/or status as a Being of Pure Energy makes them seem almost godlike, or able to masquerade as gods to certain populations, or what have you.

We all know that Trek alone is populated with enough of these to fill a dozen contests, so to up the degree-of-difficulty a bit let's exclude Trek aliens. Usual avatar contest size rules apply, of course.

I'll start with the Taelons from Earth: Final Conflict:

No Trek aliens, sorry mate, cf. second paragraph of the OP. ;) Otherwise the whole thread would be Trek aliens.

Just saw that the second I posted it. Star Trek was the first thing that came to my mind, and I wanted to post it before someone beat me to the punch.
 
Admittedly the evil Vorlon ambassador is the cooler one. :rommie: Go with that and I'll switch up my entry so as not to split the B5 vote.
 
...well the Old Gods are covered well with the Brothers Asgard.

How about a New God? :D

Hah! You know, Darkseid was my first thought, too, and I almost used that exact same Kirby cover as the source of my av. Of course, then I went with the Time Lords.

Here's the version I was gonna use:

I cut a little lower from the cover. And, obviously, I played with color saturation and contrast a little.

Anyway, what I'm saying is, even with the tough competition out there, you most probably have my vote. :techman:
