Description A couple of years ago I began tinkering with the game 'Spore', and this is the first critter I designed/played a game as. His name is 'Alaerapi', which is Pairetorian, in fact, for 'funny little creature'. ^u^

Just the other day, I decided randomly to draw him. It was from memory, so he's not entirely accurate to the in-game model (for example I forgot that he had feathery fans on his shoulders). But I got pretty close! I admit, I actually went into the game afterward to make his markings look more like the drawing. They were shaped a little differently.

I made a whole ton of critters in that game back then, it was addictive. Maybe I'll draw more of them in the future; it was fun re-imagining Alaerapi in my own style.

(Are the Spore screenshots okay to display here? I know deviantArt has some kind of a thing about screenshots, but I'm pretty sure I've seen people share their own Spore stuff around here before... o_o; )

~I own the drawing, but Spore belongs to EA, of course~

I got Spore several years ago; this inspiration to draw the critters I made is more recent. I've discovered it is quite fun!

Nice! Have you tried making some like Kaedo or a Pirrosila Qeet?

You mean, doing the reverse of what I did here, and 'Sporifying' a character I already have?

Creating creatures in Spore and drawing the result in a unique way has always been a favorite for me. In fact, that was what got me into drawing in the first place, so I owe the game that for giving me inspiration.

That aside, the drawing is really nice, and the Spore version is pretty accurate!

It's a lot of fun, isn't it? I'll probably draw more of my Spore-critters in the time to come.

Anyway, thanks! ^u^

yes poeple are alowed to display spare creations here,that is so long as they are the creators of course...there are even entire groups dedicated to spore stuff.

via the games terms and conditions,you are even aloud to take your creature pics (on the black background) and put them on shirts,banners and similar stuff.

do you just have the core game,or do you posses creepy n cute and galactic adventures as well?

Oh wow, really? That's really reassuring Daegen, thank you! ^u^

Wait, wait, there are other Spore games?? I thought there was just the one!

Spore was really awesome but quite limited in a lot of ways... I really hope they make a 'modern' version sooner rather then later, one that allows for large and detailed creations and is a bit more indepth... Messing around and creating creatures stays fun , you did a great job on both image and spore creature.

SekoiyaStoryteller In reply to Avarus-Lux [2016-12-31 18:39:31 +0000 UTC]

I feel the same, actually... I like Spore a lot, but I can think of SO many ways to expand upon it, and not just in the area of designing critters! Maybe they'll make a 'Spore 2' one day with enhancements (if they haven't already; if they have I don't know about it, eep )

Spore 2, create a universe edition *with handy creation tools, now on discount*

Which is funny, because I just wrote down a bunch of ideas for a Spore-remake, yesterday... probably about the same time you left this comment. OuO

I've seen this kind of thing a few times and I've always been curious is it the Spore game engine creature that comes first or the hand-drawn one?

SekoiyaStoryteller In reply to cgb1224 [2016-12-31 18:36:26 +0000 UTC]

Well, I can't speak for others, but in my case, I made the critter in Spore first, and then later (much later ) decided to draw him in my own style and see what I came up with. It'll be the same if you see any more drawn Spore-critters from me in the future.

What a pretty bird! It's been a while since I've seen somebody do Spore-related stuff.

I don't know DA's policy about screenshots, but I know a Deviant who has a truckload of screenshots (Like, print them all and they'll LITERALLY fill a truck) and they're still on his page. So, I'm pretty sure you're good.

Alaerapi is a pretty featherfloof, heehee Thanks!

I thought I saw, once or twice, deviantArt discouraging the posting of screenshots, but I guess maybe if you took the screenshots yourself it's okay? Anyway, that's reassuring, thanks. :3

It really turned awesomely, you did a fantastic work drawing this guy from the game, and the cool thing is that, I think, he actually fits with the rest of your charas. Excelent work refining the design.

Thanks! ^_^ It isn't so surprising that he looks like he fits with my characters, because I DID design him myself, even in the game, haha
