#And the Arilou did end up being quite fun to draw :D I like the triple eye fold haha I didn't think I'd get to use that again outside of Bar

Bonus:

#Doodles #SCII #ZEX #The Captain #Commander Hayes #And my first pass at an Arilou! :D #They're cute! I like them! #As with all the SCII aliens I haven't met yet I'm already injecting headcanons into them lol I'll stop once I actually start playing #I think what's especially funny is that this was mostly just meant to be a warmup/drawing ZEX as a handsome pirate briefly #Again to celebrate how pretty he is in that getup <3 And then it turned into an idea! Come on now! #I am quite pleased with how it all turned out tho haha - I got to draw the Captains coat and an Arilou and Commander Hayes! #Oh and pretty pirate!ZEX as well - as originally intended lol #I like the idea of the tables being turned and the Captain is able to actually act on his righteous indignation at ZEX's treatment of him ♪ #Not enough to actually dissuade him (himself) but he still gets to be mad! It's unfair of you ZEX! (He knows haha) #Still not enough to avoid a hug - and in front of his own crew and allies no less haha #At first including the Arilou was just kind of an errant thought #I had mixed up ZEX seeing their ship in-fic and one of the ZEX comic panels as being the same event in my head #Realized the other day that it was not! Still not by rereading lol I went and looked at the art again ♪ It's cute! #And the Arilou did end up being quite fun to draw :D I like the triple eye fold haha I didn't think I'd get to use that again outside of Bar #And only shading the upper one hehe ♪ I think it gives a neat look overall #Been a heck-while since I drew Hayes as well - I didn't see a reference for him either (understandably) so I just made something up haha #Thinking about it I wonder if ZEX likes how the Arilou look :0 They are rather humanoid! Would he be dissuaded? Are they annoying enough lol #''It's a very simple solution to all of this Admiral :)'' haha ♪
