Description Just me attempting a female namek really quick. For as long as I can remember I've been kinda iffy about the entire idea of female namekians...I was very "if it's not hinted at in the series it shouldn't be considered a serious option." But I was ruminating on some old theories about why there are none on the show/in the manga and I'm actually starting to really like the idea of them. So many interesting scenarios out there to play with--It would figure that I get the angle I'm going for with my first Fem. Namekian drawing and then bungle it with a cruddy background, but I digress... -_-


One of these days I'll have time to draw and upload some real fanart to post around here....until that day, these random five minute scribbles when I can grab a moment will have to do.

...I miss this place.

You know how Guru was the last Namekian after the whole climate effup on Namek? And all his kids are male or male-looking?

Well, female Namekians could easily exist if a "male" namekian spat up an egg, and the embryo's dna hurked back to the olden days of female/male reproduction and ended up a female

Just my theory, but I had to get it out.

Also- god, it's wonderful to see some DECENT (at the very least! ) art of female Namekians. People keep drawing them with HAIR.. ugh..!

Aw, thanks very much! Yeah, I must agree it never made much sense to me how Nameks would have any hair when they clearly don't have the genes for it.

If you like this then you will certainly like DH 's stuff. She does some killer fem. nameks....not to mention is amazing at everything else too. x)

I really like female nameks. I always have loved Piccolo, and the thought of him having a mate fill me with joy. There's one obsure referance in the manga to a Namek named Rii and they say "She" instead of he. I dont know if that was a typo or what, but the thought of it just makes me happy. ^_^ ao NYHOO, THIS IS AN AMAZING DRAWING, IT ROCKS, GO NAMEK, dbz FOR LIFE!

Ooo,I didn't know about this Rii incident. You wouldn't happen to have a scan or picture I could look at, would you? That's interesting! Thanks for commenting.

Akira Toriyama should of made Namekians have two genders.

Five minutes? Dang. It may be sketchy but it's still awesome. LOVE love love the lighting on her skin. The background is plain but hey, it doesn't detract from her.

I like that you kept her bald. I always thought since regular Namek's don't have hair, neither should the fictional females. Besides... bald is cool. Sinead O'Connor!
I also like the angle you picked.

bunnicustard In reply to Chocomegs [2008-02-09 00:27:51 +0000 UTC]

Hee, yes--bald is beautiful! x3 I dunno, the hairless thing just makes more sense to me. The only way I can see a namek having hair is if they are a crossbreed, but even then one must wonder if the genetics would even work. But anyway, thanks! I'm glad you like it.

Five minutes? Bah. It's badass and you should know that.

I've always liked the idea of female nameccians because it just gives you so many more possibilities to play with in stories. I actually thought I invented them back in 99, before really venturing on the Interwebs and discovering the glory that is Daimaou Himegai. There were a bunch of cool girls around them, like Aya and another who's name I can't remember, but they've mostly faded away... it makes me sad.

I'm thoroughly pro-female nameccian ^_~ So this, done so cooly, makes me quite happy.

Yeah, seriously--so many new avenues and interpretations open up when you throw Namekian ladies into the mix! It makes me feel nerdy and fangirly all over just thinking about it. xD *dork*

Thanks for the comment! 8D

Haha, yet? x) Do you plan on inventing some? Cos I doubt that Toriyama does ...either way I say this kind of stuff about the Z-verse is really up to the fandom at this point. *xxdhxx has some greeeat feme namekian drawings if you're interested.

But female namek's don't exist. And even as I say this, I can't help but think there is something strangely interesting about her.

Thank you very much. I'm glad that you are interested by it even if the subject matter doesn't sit well, that really flatters me.

GodSaveTheKing In reply to bunnicustard [2008-02-07 06:58:02 +0000 UTC]

Usually I would have argued the fact female nameks don't exist, but the one you created was so so pretty in the face I had to get passed it. Check out my Goku picture ne? *winkwinknudgenudge*
