IOW #7 - Alien Invasion

Don't know if I'll catch up with you guys, but I thought that I should give it a try. So I came up with the sketch below. I imagined what it would be like if aliens meet cavemen... or vise versa.
I'd really like to hear your thoughts on this please.

Pretty cool stuff from everyone so far

Painting cities really isn't my forte, but I guess it's good practice

Zinph,
I like the composition & nice story telling. My concern is the dark shapes in the foreground. I'm guessing these are the legs of an alien. They are bent while, those of the others are stiff. If they are legs, can you develop them so they are 100% readable as such. Maybe add other elements. Good work and beautiful portfolio.

Mine thus far, the cliff in the bottom left will have a human on his knees pleading for his life in front of the alien

WIP 1 - many hours still to go

Adrian: Watch the placement of the legs on your alien, the third one looks like it's coming out from the front, but it's foot looks is behind the forth leg.

CRallis I love this! I think its a terrific idea and composition. You should definitely finish it. However, is it best for this brief? Because it doesn't look to be much of an invasion.

Kitten Poker: i noticed it as well thanks! Re did the legs completely

Might call this done depending on how badly work crushes my soul.

Hey Artfix! Perhaps you're right, there are no killings and laser beams but I wanted to depict a different approach. It could be part of an invasion though!
