Eye Exam

Uh-oh, looks like Xlegg just got the results of his eye exam, and the news isn't good. He's gonna need glasses. There goes the money he was saving up for a new big screen holographic TV!

If you're a true sci-fi geek, you'll recognize that Xlegg is wearing the same outfit that Dr. Smith wore on TVs Lost In Space.

Drawn in Photoshop on the graphic tablet.


Here's the rough Sketch I did for Xlegg.

And here's the original sketch I did. I liked this version, but for some reason I just couldn't get it to work when I started drawing it for real, and had to start over from scratch. Sometimes that happens. Things that work in a sketch sometimes refuse to work in a finished piece.

  1. He's SO AWESOME!! I really want to see what his glasses will look like! He has a Lost In Space feel to him alright and I love his name :)

  2. Thanks, Juan and Dawn! Hey, that rhymes!

    Dawn: Xlegg's glasses would probably look like a bunch of lenses connected by a series of stems, that fit over his head sort of like a net.

  3. It would almost look like a helmet.
