So I got that Star Wars-y book that has those pictures and little tabs that point to parts on the picture and say rediculous things that are often funny, but at least insightful. It informed me that General Grievous was a Kalee...Kaleesh...one of the two. I'm having trouble differentiating the adjective of the species from the noun. It matters not.

They have lots of little tidbits of information in the book...random samplings of what parts of Griev are inspired from certain parts of Kalee culture...that he was a warlord in their wars, etc. But they leave out lots of important, big things....like why there are wars, or...what the Kalee look like. Or what they're fighting against, besides a name. I felt left with a glimpse into something bigger, but with glasses much too dark to see anything.

And so I decided to make some random Kalee creation of my own.
I'm sure there are pictures out there somewhere, and, as soon as I've posted this, I'll go find them. But I wanted to give it a go from my imagination first...attempt to reconstruct one from what parts I can.

This picture was very annoying to draw. His feet actually almost went off my paper...so his legs are technically a little short. He doesn't have quite the feeling of superiority that I wanted to give him...but he at least looks cool enough, I guess. I can imagine all these little things in my mind of what Kalee would do on a day to day basis and how they'd fight their wars....and that goes into a picture, too, but...would take so long to type out that I'd run out of room. I've actually got a thumbnail of a Kalee that I like better than this picture, as it seems to capture their spirit, better. Or at least what I guess their spirit is. But its a crappy thumbnail, so it probably won't get posted. Ah, well.

At least I colored something, right?

Some of the alternate inspirations for this...were random lizard parts....ideals of western-type dragons and some of eastern types...dinosaur parts...and...funny enough....that evil Draconian guy from the "Mighty Ducks" cartoon series. Wierd what things stick in your memory.
