Hi, thanks 🤍
I draw alien creatures and species of my sci-fi world and go into speculative evolution too. However, the focus of my story is on the complex relationship between a human woman and an alien man. Most likely this doesn't fit into the genre of the pack. But here is art anyway :D

Happy New Year!
AND Happy Birthday (to me) 🤍

Thank you all for your support and especially the kind comments during the last year. You've been helping me so much to stay motivated. May your 2026 be amazing!

Share your happiness - and maybe this post :'D

Their "wings". The design of the Nan-Te'gah has changed a bit, but the wings are still similar.

I felt the need to explore (and explain) my Nan-Te'gah's wing anatomy, so I started something new.

This is a cropped screenshot of a larger page. :>

If you see this, post a unicorn 🦄

Let's sprinkle in a bit of darkness.. :>

Ooo thank you for the artshare! 🤍

As a surprise to absolutely no one, I'll share my favourite alien dude, Zhaikes :') He's a grumpy overlord, with a soft spot for a human called Lara.

Share your couples art! 🤍

Can't pass this up. :>

Hello and welcome new people! :}

I'm Kathaja and I draw OCs and aliens from my sci-fi world. And I also write a book about them! My forever-hyper fixations are the main characters Zhaikes and Lara (the alien and the human~)

Zhaikes would go for mind reading or even mind controlling(!). Luckily he can't do that.

Lara would want to speak every language in the world. She loves languages and interaction. And she is reluctantly impressed that Zhaikes speaks 83 languages.. Lara speaks ~5.

Share your couples art 🤍🖤

I can't let this pass :>

Ah, I forgot this one.
I love this one the most 🤍

QRP with some pieces of 2025 you're really proud of!

Nnaaa it's not 50% Zhaikes, you don't see that!
December 13, 2025 at 7:27 PM
Show your pink haired characters 🩷

I'm surprised I can even contribute! Here is Andris, a human, but not from Earth :>

I created the Tar'nex based on "they have to be worse than angry Zhaikes" :')

This is an earlier concept, from a time when I started sketching with fineliners. Find more about their creation in the quoted post.

Depends. They both go through denial phases and fight their own emotions for different reasons. But eventually their love for each other is equal (and strong :))

Pants! :D Zhaikes prefers his bio-armour, like most Zhor Khat. It's for protection, but it also regulates the temperature, as his species is sensitive to the cold.

Another Halloween-worthy artwork 🤍

I like the contrast between terrifying and tender, fierce and loving. These are Zhaikes and Lara, the main characters of my alien world.

More art for the spooky season!

This species is called Vortecc. They have strange claws and many extra limbs. Their 3rd pair of eyes is usually closed, but when it's open, it sees in the infrared spectrum. Vortecc are slightly taller than humans, but much more deadly.
