Last month I shared the "Station Pests" spread from the Martian Series. This faction has creatures who are a genetic mash-up of rats, roaches, grubs and spiders. (Ahhhh! What a lovely bunch!!) While they form the lowest tier of baddie found in the game, but they make up for their lack of villain prestige with extra teeth and sheer quantity.
Now some of you may be wondering, what happened to the pencil concept art? As I mentioned in my martian update post last month, I have switched to doing color concept roughs like this one for production work because, as much as I love my graphite pencils, traditional scans just make for a lot of extra work when making art for this format. (These also take literally 1/10th the amount of time!) And in spite of how rough these start out, I promise that they are in fact, a great base to paint final art over!:

It is all on one layer and I have fallen in love with working in this method recently. I have 3 new ones from the spread above which I've added to the forthcoming martian guide. These are #7, #9, & #12 from the layout. (And since they are already finished, I've left them off the poll below.)


Choose your #1 pick before Friday the 12th! You can expect to see the painting of it live-streamed later this month on Twitch.
