Here's a pencil sketch which I decided to ink and detail a bit; it shows a bit more detail than earlier drawings of the Khet species. This is Treska, who is Onika's protector. She's somewhere in the neighborhood of 70 years old in case you were wondering.
Mediums used are black technical pens and black pencil on 24-pound paper. Nothing fancy.

If you ever decide to color it, here's an idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyljNfQUu5A
That face of hers was made for Hollywood!

Yeah, Onika arrived in the Caterwaul world, but her passage to the world was destroyed so Treska had to find another way to get there. While only a short bit of time passed in Treska's reality, nearly a week passed in Onika's new reality. Treska was still able to sense Onika, but due to the difference in realities, it was rather faint.
"THAT'S ALL, FOLKS!"
Jim, might I impose and ask for a blow-up on the bottom-left 1/3rd? I'm specifically interested to see how you made the shading / highlight of her neck-frills. (Being a hack colourist, sometimes, I'm still hoping to absorb more ideas... since I basically suck at it, really.)

...and I am. What I mean is, I'd love to see that 'neck frill' specifically, blown up to this same size, to see your technique. As if I were actually holding it and lifted it closer to my face.
I know it's an odd request, I apologize for that. But it always fascinated me to see how an artist accomplishes the effects they do. Colouring something (even B&W) is one thing... but making highlights and shadows and graduations happen is a skill I don;t think I inherently have knowledge about. So, I try to learn as I can.
In any event, thanks for your time as always, Mister H.

I use blending stumps. They're available in various sizes at most art and hobby stores.
The spines look a little like those leaves from the top side, but the underside has a pronounced ridge than runs the full length of the center of the spine. I'll probably post some anatomy sketches later this month.

Jim a few questions here
1....How often do the Khet brush & floss their teeth and how do they find a dentist that brave enough to put their paws into that maw? (their dental plan must cost a fortune)
2....How in the hell do they brush their head hair/spines with that serrated edge that reminds me of really nasty sawgrass.
3....As above how does a non-Khet lovingly run their paws though that said hair with out pulling back a bloody mess that once was your paw?
(Something tells ma a chainmail glove ain't going to cut it so to say)
Please tell us as enquiring minds (aka noisy S.O.B's.....Sons of Bears) like me gotta know.
Thanks

I'd be curious to see Treska and Des trying to intimidate each other, and how Des's reaction would be, how fast would she back down/lose face with her co workers. Hmm how about intimidation porn shoot, Treska and the 3 sisters, and how uncomfortable the girls would be around Treska.
I'd think Des would probably try to hold her own, since she knows Treska's not going to hurt her. Granted, Treska could simply pick her up with one arm and toss her into the pool, but that's just one of those risks, I reckon.
I can't imagine Treska in any sort of porn shoot. She's certainly not a pornographic character!

Awesome PIC, mann; one I will NOT Ever Live though if ol' Tres came knockin' on my door wanting to KIK-ASS!
-The Detail and the Greys are So Much Win on this PIC it's Criminal, J-
But as 4 the SitRep -Situation Report- on Des and Tres; I could Never see those two fight each other IMO.
They'd more or less be the Sister-Type towards themselves and in dealing with Onika within their new surroundings, half if not most of the time like in the Comics and your PICS, than alternatively scrappin' with each other.
-That'd be Helluva fun if that Comic with those 4 would've continued though-
Anyways, Great Job and I hope to see more with U soon as always, J; later!
-I'm scared, yet SO Goddamn Aroused- -lol-
