Nice. The only thing lacking is the bushy eyebrows. (That is, in fact, in the books.  )

You wouldn't want to catch a ride from Vogons, as they are one of the most unpleasant creatures in the galaxy. While not inherently evil, they are bad-tempered, bureaucratic, officious and callous. They won't even lift a finger to save their grandmother from the ravenous bugblatter beast of Traal, without orders signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public inquiry, lost again, and finally buried in soft peat for three months and recycled as firelighters. The best way to get a drink out of a Vogon is to stick your finger down his throat, and the best way to irritate him is to feed his grandmother to the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal. On no account should you allow a Vogon to read poetry at you, as Vogon poetry is arguably the third worst form of poetry in the universe, the second being that of the Azgoths of Kira. As a sidenote, during a recitation by their poet master Grunthos the Flatulent of his poem "Ode to a Small Lump of Green Putty I Found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning," four of his audience members died of internal hemorrhaging, and the President of the Mid-Galactic Arts Nobbling Council survived by gnawing one of his own legs off, much to the "disappointment" of Grunthos, who was about to embark on a reading of his twelve-book epic entitled My Favorite Bathtime Gurgles when his own major intestine - in a desperate attempt to save life and civilization - leaped straight up through his neck and throttled his brain. The absolute worst poetry, written by Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings of Greenbridge, Essex, England, was fortunately obliterated along with Earth.

It looks very Junji Ito-ish. Very creepy.

Hmm, I wish I knew what story that was from. But yes, it does look quite similar and very creepy. I hope you're not traumatised, lord knows I am.

Lucky you, my mind is just absolutely broken. Hmm, I'll see what I can do. In the meantime, here are some more Junji Ito stories, [link]
I don't think there are too many Vogon looking creatures in this one, but there is a big headed creature in the story "Long Dream".

thanks,but why your 'mind is just absolutely broken',when you know 'Junji Ito' before,it sounds like you might used to his works

Ultrabountyhunter In reply to MicaFeresz [2012-10-09 11:26:10 +0000 UTC]

Oh, trust me, you never really get used to his works. Just when you think you can't get anymore traumatised, he comes up with something even worse.

i'm not sure but this is a great interpretation because they must be something creepy and ugly as the vogons should be,creative design for not-so-creative-aliens

and I also like the movie version(don't hate me because of this)even they look too good-looking,maybe this is why i like,but that is not meaning i'm disrespect,i read the books too
(i've heard somewhere that there's good vogon in 6th book,but the 6th one written by other person not Douglas Adams)

This is much better than the movie version.

It looks as if it's about to spout poetry at you. *shudder*

Thanks! I tried to merge the movie-version with my first impression of them. But yea, I agree. The movie version was perhaps bit lacking, and not really alien.

He looks like he's about to burst forth into hideous soul-rending sanity-blasting ear-bleedingly horrific Vogon verse....


....I like it.
