Description
But not quite in colour.I actually finished the drawing of this before I did my Llamahog but I wanted it to have a little colour to it and I just haven't had the time.
So here it is in monochrome but with a touch of shadow and highlights which is all I had time for. Not much in the way of colour but just enough to give him life I think.

A good drawing and a great design! - I love the energy in the lines, and the places where you've deliberately pushed the anatomy (such as the neck, and bulky forearms) ... it would make for a very cool alien race!
The colouring/shading is minimal but just enough to add some form.. perhaps a little more attention to where highlights/shadows were laid down might have helped to convey more of a solidness (as it his his legs feel a little weak/wishy-washy compared to his upper-body, both in terms of drawing and shading, but It gives the impression of a concept sketch, where such details/areas are secondary.) - The tail is another example of this (and does let the sketch down a tiny bit for me, - where it goes thin it looks rather rushed like an after-thought.) - but it's still a very cool drawing, and like I say, I love the design! (and I think the name suits him too!)
- nice work! - hope to see more of him! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="

All fair comments - you kinda hit the nail on the head with the tail as it was something of an afterthought. The composition of the figure needed something to balance it a little 'cos it's all on the left so I popped the tail in there at the end to compensate.
The shading too is a little bit of a rush job (mild understatement) and does have the distinct whiff of 'oh god Top Gear is about to start!' to it. Originally (when I realised I wasn't ever gonna have time to colour it) I was just gonna put the lineart up but it didn't look properly finished so I added a tiny speck of colour.
Thanks very much for critique ('tis appreciated) and I'm glad you like it.

i havent had a proper look at your shit in a long time, so to me i've just noticed a sudden increase in your skillz, both in anatomy drawing and line quality. respec'

Thanks - he's not as bad as he seems though. He just has to be more careful around breezes (one gust of wind and he's in danger of being arrested - that is not a funtional piece of clothing he's wearing...)

He-He-right, but I really like this character... He could inspire great stories, you know? If you write more about him, I will definitely read it.
Have a nice week-end, thank you for your answer

The name is rubbish (as is my habit - if you think of a better one let me know) and the neck is quite deliberately far too long. Though the anatomy is a little wobbly too there.
Thank you kindly!

well how about tresocular or trioculi or tresoculi or triocularus??
i'm pretty sure tri and clops have different word origins but anyway it sounds like a very clumsy name... but i can see where you got the name from (cyclops and tria for 3)

Actually I go the name from He-man and the Masters of the Universe but we'll got with yours now. It makes me seem smarter
Also, your names - 2 sound rude and one sounds like a dinosaur.
Seriously though don't worry about the name - I never do.
