Heres the current version of Menewa looking at the fore field on Kepler. Still not liking it but I cant spend any more time on it.
This is the final version of the Pronaxians goin up against this huge silicon spider in the caves..i also might get in there and touch up a few details, but I like the overall image

Here is the finished Key scene of the Pronaxians investigating the mysterious caves of Kepler, I might get in there and refine the characters a bit more

And finally the extremely sketchy piece which I find myself hating haha..
This one definitely needs more work but I like the way its heading.

This is the last official Key scene, and its meant to show Menewa on Kepler wearing the Catori skin to endure the hot temperatures of Kepler. Menewa is checking out the force field surrounding Kepler which enables the planets low tech zone.

The concept is that the Trions placed this field as a way to prevent any sentient beings from developing a level of technology to like space flight or high powered equipment to escape this prison.

Anyway this piece still has a lot of work to do so im gonna get to it. Im currently working on all three images at the same time which I think has helped me gain speed and confidence..hopefully more to come!

This is the other painting I'm working on, it shows the cave in which Menewa and the Pronaxians take refuge and investigate.

Still very sketchy but I like the overall tone and lighting, still needs some work though
Here is the latest work I've been doing, it shows the poor Pronaxians encountering one of the most deadly aliens inside the caves of Kepler.

With my workflow I've been working on three paintings at the same time to speed up my process, this is one of them and in my opinion the one that I'm enjoying the most. hope you like

Here is a quick concept for the inhabitants of the planet Kepler. They are going to be a primitive race of aliens who team up with the marooned Tryons. I based a lot of its anatomy on a gorilla, and was thinking they could also use their powerful for climbing trees and rocks etc.

I like the concept of them being tribal almost warrior-like, I added some basic tattoo designs and based the colour on the aboriginal paintings.

I sketched this thinking it was cold blooded like most amphibians and uses the power of the sun for energy. Its skin has like a hardened shell covering the chest and back for absorbing sunlight

I'm also thinking this creature to be a herbivore and feeds off mainly the special liquid produced by the trees on Kepler. Its quite an easy food source which means they don't waste too much energy.

I'm still unsure where they could live, I was thinking either in the jungles of Kepler or in these caves away from the sun in order to make it easier for their bodies to shut down.

Anyway The Anoki have an important role in the story, they are the ones who save the Menewa and the Pronaxians on Kepler and lead them to their hidden community where they hide the marooned prisoners from the guardians of Kepler.

Still got some exploring to do but I like where this idea is going.  hope you likes
