I am rather chuffed with this. Can't believe I did it. Painted (from scratch. no tracing no nothing (because people ask)) looking at a reference pic of course.
One of the prawns from District 9. Loooooved that movie. Helloo, its the sweeetie maaaaan
Done after work, before work, during lunch hour and other bits. I'd say 3-4 hours?
I'm never sure how people can tell how long they took
heres the reference pic [link]

Listening to the soundtrack right now!
This is my favourite movie of all, the prawns were amazingly designed and you drew this alien extremely well! I love the incredible detail you put into it. Well done!
District 9 was the only alien movie that was actually on the aliens' side and portrayed the humans as the villains... That's why I loved it. The aliens were misunderstood.
Poor prawns... All they wanted was to go home!

This is fantastic! Perfect use of lighting and texture, it is extraordinarily life like. (Isn't it awful that people assume because it is digital art its traced, or some other silly thing... that angers me. >.< )
