Description
Someone mentioned that I never use alien/non-human characters in any of my pieces and they're pretty much right. I guess because I tend to focus on a near Earth type future, other species and races get left out, so in the interest of fair representation - I give you the cat people of Zeta Reticuli.
Obviously this is sort of tongue in cheek, but who knows, maybe cats will evolve one day and explore the galaxies? Then again, they have it pretty good laying around all day and doing nothing, so where's the motivation?
Instead of my normal composition style, I tried to give this more of a cinematic feel, maybe like a screen cap from a film. I'm not sure what the story is, but the leader of the recently arrived cat crew appears a little irritated and the maintenance guy at the station doesn't seem to know how to help them. Not sure, but if I were him I would keep an eye on my mouse droid.
Made with Poser, Vue and Photoshop, this one finally gave me a reason to use Sanctum Art's SAK-EX figure and to pull Stonemason's venerable Dark Star out of storage. The hardest part of this one? Trying to get a convincing conversational cat expression :) Thanks for looking!

Wonderful work! These guys are probably an evolutionary step twice removed from the Kilrathi. And if you remember that obscure reference, you're probably older than you'd care to admit. Well done!
