This was by far the strangest character I I've drawn in a long time but it helped me remember how much dang fun alienish species design is. He was literally so much fun to draw <3
Tail is inspired by a whip tail scorpion and has some fun vinegar scented goo drips. My tegu helped me come up the the face design since she insisted on having her big doofy head in my way the whole time. Wing fingies can be used like hands and are flexible with minor grip strength (needs both handywings clasped together to pick up a heavy thing for example). Not a good flyer but he can glide from tall places. Little feeties are centipede inspired and very strong for vertical climbing and they go clack clack clack when he walks. He a big boi too - you could ride him probably. His lil wedge nose would be good for pulling tree bark off trees to snatch up grubs. A good goofy man.
You could obviously change all of that if you want - it's just what I had in mind while drawing lol
My likes in an alien type critter would be something more on the feral/animalistic side. I adore feathers, antlers, floppy ears, interesting jaw shapes or teeth placement, bovine or cervidae inspired, insect traits, and naturalistic patterns/colors with bits of unnatural colors added in. But honestly you could draw just about anything and I would love it, your style is killer <33
Here is my toyhouse if it helps at all.
