As always, great work. The largest creature at the top reminds me of something from the Fossil record.

I've had the similar idea for my own project.

ah, Ok, what is your project?

Oh, there's just similar part, not the same. And it's fantasy world, not sci-fi, as your.
My project is called "EWU-Extradimensional Weird University". If you are intrested in, you can look at some sketches and concepts on my page)

cool! the bulge at the back of the huge creature looks like a visible reproductive system
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thats right! its the reproductive system! when the breed is ready this thing just explodes and the offspring is free!

Lol yeah but I was actually referring to the part were ripley shot a grenade gun at the Queens reproductive system. Don't know if you remember though

oh, which part was it? Aliens (part 2)? cause i have never seen this part completely
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think the first one... With the girl newt...I'm not entirely sure either
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
think youre right... love the alien movies, even if they scared the shit out of me, when i saw them as a 13-year-old-kid . . . nightmares!!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha yeah me too. but what one particular movie scared me was 'Signs'. good movie...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
all of my friends say "signs" is boring, but i definately like it - the atmosphere is great and the metaphoric way they use the word "signs" makes it quite special

i thought it was a great movie. the 'weakness' of the aliens was very creative as well. but its a typical sci fi movie so of course they have no 'clothes on.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
the weakness was water, wasnt it? but, hows that possible? maybe the aliens where based on liquids like methane or something else
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
could be, but most alien movies don't have much logic in them though. maybe they were from a harsh barren evironment.

I'm guessing the plants down the bottom rise high from the ground and reach the cloud layer? A very interesting ecosystem. The large creature in the foreground somewhat resembles a giant angelfish. Is that what you based it on?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, thats exactly what they were bases on
and yes, the plants are growing from the bottom into the clouds

If there were big creatures living permanently in the air I would imagine they would be filter-feeders. The flying skewers from 'alien planet' were very agile but I couldn't imagine how a creature could exact it's movements with a large weight 'prey' on it's proboscis.
Skewers are very cool though. My second favourite creature (after the Rime Runner which doesnt feature in Alien planet but can be seen on the wikipedia article for 'Darwin IV creatures'
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i know the skewers, but their way to hunt and eat seems to be not plausible...

The series 'the future is wild' is quite good at taking risks with making creatures since the show doesn't focus on how life would evolve without us, but just different animal adaptations used in different scenarios to make the series interesting.
Also I am attempting to create a fictional 'planet' complete with its own landscapes, ecosystems, landforms ect. I want to make everything feasible withe the laws of science as well. You can check my latest journal entry and see if everthing is 'right'

All of your works are just great! I can't even imagine how these creatures come to your mind, but never stop, keep it up
