mosquito_wenzi’s Art Direction: So, to make these aliens look really alien, make the upper torso look like it couldn’t possibly be connected to the lower torso. And you only have to paint one; we’ll copy paste him to create more in the background.

They call them the Kyubanpeet
The alien kings of the rhumba beat
When they hold their guns they go chicky chicky boom, chicky chicky boom!

Those weapons don’t exactly look adapted to the aliens physiology.

Man, those hip hands. Talk about an evolutionary dead end.

People always mock synchronized invading, but it’s a lot harder than it looks.

@Tom Noir I think that might depend on the physiology of the opposite sex.

Oh no it’s an army of unconvincing cardboard cutouts of identical, badly-designed aliens. I’m so scared.

@Anna T.: hide behind the sofa until ‘The Generation Game’ comes on.

Viewers of ‘Torchwood’ will know that this is only the second-stupidest fish-headed alien this century. (and the Hath are at no.5)
And now I’ve got that Bill Mumy song running around in my head.

So, they have established logotype for how to properly wash and care for your clothes. I would like to propose new symbols for ‘how many books in the series’. These symbols are printed on the cover, and you the reader can determine at a glance if the set is worth buying. Symbols and meaning are as follows:
^_^ : stand-alone novel, novella, short-story collection, etc.
¬_¬ : trilogy
o_O : more than three books in the series
X_X : original author died before finishing the set

@Dead Stuff. Shouldn’t o_O have a variant indicating “series currently unfinished”? Or is that a given?

Just revisting this… look, are we actually sure those *are* weapons the aliens are holding, and not Space Power Tools? Maybe that’s why the human has such a casual grip on the Atomic Hair Dryer.

Art direction: ‘Paint me a futuristic insectoid attack helicopter, but with rocket engines instead of blades. You can do what you like with the rest of the cover, I’m off to the sex toys shoppe.’

Looks like the upper portion of the alien was painted *after* sex shoppe visit.

You’re never too alien to Vogue!
