    Well, I tend to think of an eight-legged vonskrr with reptillian skin and a scorpian(spelling please) tail.

    Hum...

    [image=http://www.lestimbres.ch/nonrelated/Voxyn.jpg]

    But according to the artist, it is not a very good interpretation, since he was not given all the good info by LFL, and needed to get back to it afterward under photoshop to add the 4 other legs (he originally thought there were only 4)...

    It's from the upcoming NJO source book.

    PS : Nom Anor, if there is any problem with me posting this here, well, tell me, and I'll remove the pic.

    Wow that has to be the Uglyest Thing in the GFFA.

    Looks like a warthog/rat/Dog that escaped from some hellish relm, of Scum and villany.

    Looks pretty much like I expected it. Reminds me of a ::cough! cough!:: a Klingon Targ.

    Remember, they're mutated vornskrs, so they should maintain some traits of the parent species. I loved the creatures from Half-Life, even if I didn't care much for the game. Valve is apparently working hard on Half-Life 2.

    Personally I thought they looked more like this Balrog, only with the Voxyn features, that is the 8 legs and so on... But the general aspect was like that in my mind :

    Personally, the artist's picture looks more like a mutated womprat.

    Xizor, no problem with posting the pic. I don't mind.

    As for Mr. Post's work, he had no knowledge to base the drawing on, other than the fact that the originated from vornskr genes. In the books, the voxyn look very little like vornskrs.
