This is World Cancer, one of my rare request-pieces I did for a DeviantArt friend. It was something I'd planned to do for myself anyway, and I asked him and a couple of other friends if I could include their characters in the image. He's the green guy front-and-center. My gang is the brown Predator, the multi-armed weirdo behind her, and the gold guy behind him. The other three were friends who came along for the glory and honor of killing a planet.
Somewhere in my notes from twenty years ago, I have the outline of a story that explains what the heck is going on here. The short version is that there's this entire planet that has gone cancerous - it's a world-sized teratoma with all the tentacular horror that one could imagine. Our intrepid Hunters need to find a way to kill it before it eats any other planets and grows large enough to start attracting things to it with a deepening gravity well.
I made this with Prismacolor pencils over an ink drawing.
