A redraw of my eldritch sona I drew last year.
Lovecraft Sundays!, The top is an elderkin, a highly advanced race of aliens who used to have city on mars and Venus. They can only be found in a mindless state in the deep dark oceans of Enceladus. As to how a group of beings as intelligence as the elderkin lost their minds is anyone’s guess.
Below is an Udug a shifting mass of swirling patterns and body features. Looking at them would give you a headache. They protect, the ruins of mars, and are known for curiosity in humans, but mostly just their insides.
Trying to come up with a design for some aliens, these guys are the Imsee, or squid whales as humans like to call them. They have a space-fairing civilization and are responsible for uplifting many alien species.

Been a little busy lately and and didn't have much time for art as of recently, but I've come up with another group of colonists. I don't have a name for them yet, but their essentially humans / alien hybrids who have a genetic trait which causes the duplication of certain organs or skeletal structure. This one is sporting an additional set of eyes. Just a quick bit of line art.

Just a little bit of shading practice
Alright, I've sorta only talked about humans a little bit in my world-building project union-station (working name considering changing it) but earthlings are kinda rare in space, mostly because they don't travel or migrate much. Most humans you'll see wondering the known galaxy are their genetically modified descendants. (I've taken to calling them colonists). Chimeras, are one such group. They're from a tropical world called Amazon (named after the then long gone amazon rainforest). Life on amazon had a higher degree of biological compatibility than on other alien planets, and a unique domain of life which was capable of modifying their own genome by integrating the genes of other organism. So when the first human colonists came to amazon, they opted to splice their genetics with some of the fauna there.
Genetically chimeras are a bit more biologically unstable than other old era colonists in that they're prone to some rather interesting mutations with the most common being the duplication of organs and other body parts. This amazonian is sporting an extra set of arms, which is a fairly common mutation among the population.
