Comparison pic by Michael Scudieri
I get using reference, and Stompy is great reference. But at least get him from an angle that wasn't used in mass marketing if you must directly reference. Better to use reference as a starting point for your own look though. Not sure if this was free-hand or another trace-job.
Stompy was obviously the reference for the Thicker Than Blood comic Alien but all of the poses and angles looked original.
