Marshezien
A male specimen of the humanoid species, Marshezien.
Planet of origin – Marshez, in the Retaw System.
Features are a bluish skin pigmentation, reddish hair and strangely pigmented eyes, also varying shades of blue. A most unique feature is a prolonged spinal chord and coccyx, feline in appearance, and for the males is ritually severed in the middle teenage years, somehow not rendering them paralysed. As the planet surface is significantly covered in wetlands their diet is mainly fish, crustacea and estuarine vegetation. The atmosphere is compatible with human species. Known throughout the universe for their neutrality although they undergo training in martial arts from a young age.
Notable sky features are the nine suns and the nearby planet, Tresed, which looks a little like Jupiter, the fifth planet of the Primary Solar System.
Created in Bryce 6 and Photoshop CS2. Alien made from merging features from photos of two different people and given a Photoshop make-over.
Marshezien belongs to the following groups:
Alien Races., Artrageous RB Artists - Self Portrait Gallery, In Another World .., Sci Fi and Unconventional Artistry - 3 per day Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints and Mounted Prints

Exoctic…................could you do something on the 4th planet in the Reticuli …. the binary star system…. look for Project Serpo on Google
retepk replied
Thank you very much Phil. Intriguing story and a fantastic suggestion.
I’ve not heard of Zeta Reticuli and Project Serpo. Although I have heard of the Roswell story of course.
Binary star systems . . . mmm. Opens up all sorts of possibilities.
Cheers mate.

You’re on a roll Peter. I like this very much, especially the mysterious background. Love your story too. I’ve just finished playing all the Tomb Raider games – I love mysticism and being in another world besides this one :-)
retepk replied
Thank you very much Rightasrain. The story, I have to say, was provided by the Alien Races Group as part of a challenge.
I am the same as to exploring mystical realms and other worlds. SF and Fantasy films are my mainstay.
Cheers.

Peter I bought a beautiful book the other day Bold Visions by Gary Tonge – wonderful the way he paints Fantasy and SF. An inspiration!
retepk replied
Thank you Rightasrain for that information. I shall catch up with that book.
Cheers.

Many thanks Syd. With this one the scenario was provided by the Alien Races Group for the current challenge.
I agree with you wholeheartedly about the magnificence of the colour blue.
