Description
(For a basic view of the Birrin Bodyplan, which has 6 legs, see this link [slightly out of date] [link] )Refugees, faced with starvation and loss of livelihood by the diversion of the river that feeds the vast lakes they live upon, were shipped to uninhabited badlands in neighboring nations. The state responsible for the disruptive developments paid local poor governments, in arms and financial relief, to accept millions of displaced people inside their borders.
Ill feelings due to the destruction of their towns and habitat, anger soon erupted into large scale protests which the financially insecure and corrupt nations had trouble containing.
Seen here is a vast march from a nearby tent city; angry refugees storm an area of newly (but cheaply) build admin towers created to manage the huge displaced population.
Younger and angrier refugees quickly turned to violence, attacking understaffed riot police staff with knives and other improvised weapons.

Probably different races. Sorry if this response is late.
Exactly 4 years and 1 week late.

So basically, the Birrin refugees were sent to crappy slums that didn't really improve their living situation, which cause large scale riots to break out.

Impressive image! I can easily write the script for this unpleasant incident:
*Background sounds of an angry mob, occasional shouts of "What do we want?" "FREEDOM!" "When do we want it?" "NOW!" and "Occupy the towers!".*
"Hey, you! Get back in--UH!"
"Off the pigs, mother****ers!"
"CARL!" *WHAM* (A riot shield can be an effective bludgeon.) "Carl, don't you die on me!" *electronic sound.* "HQ, HQ, this is post number 4! Man down, man down! Calling for medivac and support. One of the crazies just stabbed Carl, and there's more coming this way!"

This is one great picture, i love it how you give your works a background story and therefore more authenticity.
However i wonder how the security staff can see in their helmets. The design is cool, but they don't have tubes like the astronaut. Though it's obvious that those tubes would be a vulnerable point, but is there an alternative?

I'm guessing the two vertical plates either side of the beak are visors, giving it visibility for all 4 eyestalks.

You were very creative with the illustration of your alien race. Love the green combat armor those riot police are wearing. They cover the whole body. Very cool.
Are those armored ones a different species or breed than the rioters? They seem a little smaller and slightly different from them.

It is possible they are a different race, but as with humans there is a lot of individual variation in the Birrin. So maybe they are just short XD
