Description
Here you see the new version of the Agetaj and their whole body plan.They look quite similar to their anchestors, the Slitaj, but something changed dramatically:
They now can walk upright and don't need a tail for balancing their centre of gravity. This is caused by climate changes . . . but I already said that by the last picture.
The Brothers walk "hand in hand" or "tentacle in tentacle" to communicate with chemicals.
The social structure of the Agetaj is very high developed. They've already started to build citys and are about to enter the industrial time. They always run naked, cause their skin is very resistant against changes of temperature, water or other physical effects and they feel no shame.
By the way: The black things in their faces aren't eyes but nostrils. They dont have eyes at all. They use the combination of the senses on there tentacles and add the reflection of tones they produce. All comes together in a special oil filled chamber in their heads (just like the organ of whales or dolphins).
Think I have to show you the anatomy soon . . .

Overall its a really great concept design for an alien species, and I commend you for your talent in catching the visual side of what's truly, biologically alien in your artwork. I don't think I have commented before (although I do follow you), but I thought I leave comment today .
I have a few questions if you don't mind:
1 - I see you have set this world in a binary star system. Is it a close (spectroscopic-like) binary or a wide binary system? I'm asking because I'm wondering about the way you put the two stars, is the planet is orbiting one of them, or both of the suns (because one looks bigger;
2 - Can you tell us more about the planet? The size, type, climate, atmosphere?
3 - I am a bit confused about the fact that they don't have any eyes (or something that would be analogous to eyes). The sky seems clear, so there is no significantly thick atmosphere to block a lot of sunlight, and on top of that, you have the light output of not one, but two stars, so it confuses me.
