GORILLA - DEMON DAYS cover redraw featuring the divergent universe crew!!
I miss these sweethearts so much, I’m so glad nothing bad ever happened to them! I’m delighted to hear about the audio drama where C’rizz discovers a new colour and they spend the day trying to name it!
A redesign for Doctor Who Audio Drama character, C'rizz! I really enjoy this character, but I'd be lying if I said my jaw didn't drop once I found out what he supposedly looks like dsaklfjdkslf.
Design Nerding under the cut!
I tried to put more focus on the fact that he's described as a lizard who has an exoskeleton, which I feel is such a cool combination of features that isn't utilised much in his official design.
So I decided to give him more of an inhuman snout to lean more towards the lizard aspect, but have it blend into a helmet-like structure to also give it that exoskeleton look. He also has colourful dots all over his body, which are inspired by the dots on a squid that help it camouflage.
The wiki said he wears a light blue hoodie, but I decided to turn that into a poncho with a hood instead. It felt more appropriate a creature from another species and world wouldn't be wearing a regular hoodie. Instead I imagine the imagery on his poncho to hold cultural value to him that's been lost with his people.
I wanted to give him a tail of sorts, but giving him a lizard tail easily made him feel more EARTH LIZARD than "Alien", so I ended up giving him an abdomen inspired by a mud-dauber wasp instead!
Also, I don't usually draw legs more bend and ending straight down like that, but I thought it'd be fun give C'rizz a more interesting and alien posture. It's a feature that's inspired by @myuniverseinabox's work and how they draw legs for their non-human characters! Go give them some love!
going back and re-listening to the early Eight-Charley audios after hearing their entire run is like “there’s a foreshadowing” and “THERE’S a foreshadowing,” and “THERE’S A FORESHADOWING,” and also quite frequently “THERE’S SOMETHING THAT MAY NOT BE FORESHADOWING BUT BOY WILL I NEVER HEAR THE WORD ‘ABSOLUTION’ AGAIN WITHOUT OVERREACTING” *SCREECHES*
A little comic snippet thingy based on a few throwaway lines in Terror Firma!!
I wanted to try drawing the TARDIS team together and I wanted to experiment with how C’rizz’s colour changing abilities looked in my artwork! This was made on a whim, so I apologise for the bad formatting and awkward cropping! 😅😅
I was so sad to hear that C’rizz didn’t join Doctor and Charley at Blackpool….. so I had to do it myself! 🙂↕️🙂↕️
