Description (For a basic view of the Birrin Bodyplan, which has 6 legs, see this link [slightly out of date] [link] )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.

The rendering style here is delicious.

And it just goes to show- Humans aren't the only ones with potential of being violent, angry, oppressive and corrupt.

At first I was like "WTF is this?" then I realized all the awesome and started noticing all the awesome details.

You may want to up the contrast between the wild refugee's paw and the policething it's holding to improove the first impression of the conflict

Clairvoire In reply to ??? [2010-10-20 07:19:38 +0000 UTC]

It takes skill to make specialized riot gear for a race that is all mouth, haha

I'll have to disagree with some of the earlier comments about how these folks and us couldn't have such similar social structure. I mean, if sentient beings are elsewhere, it's very plausible we evolve to have these constructs and behavior, or else we never would've survived this far in terms of natural selection.

Bleyzaxx In reply to Clairvoire [2010-10-23 19:18:38 +0000 UTC]

The possibilities of the universe are too varied for that sort of predestined oath which you speck of. There are billions of other social paths a species can take and still survive off of, maybe even better than us.

Your work is so fascinating. Here you see these creatures that look not even remotely human, and yet, they struggle with life in the same ways we do. You perfectly portray that they feel anger, hatred, fear, pain, and sorrow, all independently in this one image, yet, one would perceive them as solely alien. I rarely see art in truer form.
