Your art is absolutely astonishing! I've looked through your gallery several times and I just realized that I have never commented.
This picture is so fun! I love character lineups and this is one of the best. So many times in creating alien species all the individuals tend to look alike. But these are wonderfully diverse and fun. I love the design of this people with the various shades of blue gradiants and markings on them, those shocking yellow eyes with their unusually shaped pupils, and their very unique lips. You didn't just take a human and color them blue. (which I also see a lot)
But what is just as fantastic as the species is their wardrobe!! The colors and patterns are so detailed. I really love the butterfly theme in their capes and shawls.
Sounds like a very interesting story you have here! And you've clearly done a great deal of thinking on each of your characters. I look forward to seeing more from you!

Oh jeez this is such an outstanding comment, I've been sitting here just trying to figure out how to reply properly to this.
First of, thank you so much!
Secondly, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
A big thing for me and my characters is wanting some kind of variety rather then the cookie cutter characters that look like the same template was used for each, aside from some different color schemes and hair styles.
The basic design for the species was made by my friend Joydroid whom if you like the kind of stuff you've seen in my gallery I highly suggest you take a poke into hers! She has some outstanding stuff in there along with more information about the species itself on some of her deviations.
The butterfly wings are actually almost like a statement of status among their people. Insects on the planet they are from tend to get very big, butterflies and dragonflies especially are predatory creatures. Usually able to take down anything in their paths. Having their wings/scales/fur pieces of them adorning your clothing is like stating how strong your clan is. Considering the fact that Ati is the muscle of their group, I'd say that they're pretty well off with him hunting what they need down.
Same to you! I have had a gander at your gallery, and am pretty fascinated by the story you have going. (like yourself though before now I have neglected the commenting, sorry!) Your red haired bucko with the robotic arm seems like such a nice chap, I really enjoyed your comic strip/pages of him and his adoptive brother/friend I am assuming. Very touching moment to share with your watchers, I'm assuming it also lends to a great deal of character development from that point forward. Keep up the good work Chill13!

Yeaah few bumpy pasts on the road behind them but the future is bright for this vagabond family.
