About the "sapient alien species" that lives on the same planet as the creature I posted earlier today.. it's the Nan-Te'gah. The most prominent feature they have in common are the head appendages. Left: the creature Right: the Nan-Te'gah, aka the sapient alien species [ #art #NanTegah #alien ]

Wanna see some #WIP shots of my latest work? I removed the "ear" jewellery as I figured it wouldn't make much sense. These appendages are sensory organs and are sensitive to pressure changes and movement. Jewellery would cause sensory overload :') Finished art below. [ #art #sketch #Nantegah ]

Since my art on wing anatomy didn't include the feet, here's a sketch of them! I imagine another set of spines at the back of the heel. When extended, it creates a kite that helps the legs stay up during flight and not drop down. Gotta be comfortable when flying, right :> [ #art #Nantegah #alien ]

Wing anatomy! The Nan-Te'gah are an alien species that can fly for short distances, depending on their fitness and experience. Most of them are great swimmers too. Athletic individuals can even switch between swimming and flying quite easily. . #art #NanTegah #alien #CreatureDesign #SciFi

I felt the need to explore (and explain) my Nan-Te'gah's wing anatomy, so I started something new. This is a cropped screenshot of a larger page. :> . #wip #art #alien #NanTegah

Lore about the Nan-Te'gah. What's their dying planet like? Why is it dying? And what have the Zhor Khat to do with it? . #NanTegah #Worldbuilding #lore

I can't believe I made this. It's the most color-ish colored thing I ever did. I'm partially convinced that someone else made it and I stole it 💀 It's my alien species, the Nan-Te'gah, showing an option for their colors and skin patterns. . #art #NanTegah #ConceptArt #alien #OCsky #WorldBuilding

Ugly 🤍 My species, the Nan-Te'gah. I want to show their actual colors, but not sure how to make it happen yet. Anyway, have this crude sketch in the meantime. . #art #NanTegah #alien #sketch #CreatureDesign
