Description
After 5 years I finally decided to color my old Ellimist lineart. Yes, I didn't spend a huge amount of time on it, and I know that the style is pretty cartoony. But that's okay, I think it works for the image.
This is my interpretation of the Ketrans, a species whose appearance is described very vaguely and only in one book, The Ellimist Chronicles. I always had a very strong visual impression of how they looked, though, and this is about as close to it as I could manage.
For those who have read the book, this is a specific scene in which Toomin, aboard his ship in orbit around the primitive Andalite homeworld, "grows" an Andalite body in order to inhabit it to mingle with the locals. I know his ship would have looked far more crystalline than this, but I wanted to go for that cartoony "alien spaceship" look.

I've never finished the Animorphs-series, but this is one book I really have to read yet.
I'd never had imagined the Ellimist's real self look like this. 
But I'll definitely go back to your look while reading, it just looks so good!
