Like most fans of science fiction and fantasy art I grew up watching the original Star Trek series on TV. My favorite episode is 'The Arena'. In this episode, Captain Kirk is transported to a planet with a barren, rocky, desert landscape where he squares off against a lizard-like officer of a Gorn vessel, ( or "wessel", Chekov). The original Gorn is a lovable sci fi character but he could use a bit of an update. I kept the basic lizardman concept but gave him more of a post apocalyptic, gamma world feel. Nothing says mutation like an extra set of limbs! He might decorate his appearance with feathers and would certainly be well armed, making him very threatening to behold. Here is my version of Gorn 2.0.
