This crazy idea came to me "out of the blue", you might say …

Nevis:

Akarr:

Do they look like they could pass for similar races from the same world or system?

Could the Nevis fit in as barbarian auxiliaries for the Akarr?

Thanks,

Dan

I think they would work well together. Their limbs look very similar. Do you know if there is a size difference?

Chef Lackey Rich Fezian05 Sep 2013 7:43 p.m. PST

Maybe. They look to have some physiological similarities. I haven't seen the Akarr firsthand, but I've done quite a few Nevis, including the ones at the catalog page. Latest batch of them has a more diabolic color scheme – you can see closeup multi-angle shots of them at the auction links off of here, where I've done them up as a related species with the Blue Moon Zennox (who are huge by 15mm standards):

Of course, painting them in similar color schemes couldn't hurt:

Well, yeah. That (and the shared horn motif) is why I did the Zennox and Nevis in an orange-red scheme together. Blues work just as well for that.

yes it looks like they would work pretty well together!

CLR: "That (and the shared horn motif)"

The Akarr have horns too? I can't see that in their pics.

Yes they look as they could work well together, or against each other one race, two warring factions, with your colonist caught in the middle!

How's this?

We sell weapons to the Nevis to help "liberate" them from oppression by their more advanced colonialist brethren.

Someone needs to sell each side of the aisle some weapons!
