I find the concept behind the Aenar and the Andorians really interesting,

So I made some Andorian OCs from the time before the Aenar evolved into who they are today, I mean come on! What was the origin behind a pacifist society forming from a militaristic society, but in a way where it came to the point of them becoming a myth, living so far offsite?? Who were those Andorians that left to build their own society instead of triggering a revolution? How was the basis for the Aenar layed out? Those are the kind of thoughts that have been feeding this particular OC (bottom left of the sketches and the one I practiced animating expressions with :]) and I figured I could use my interest in them to practice some shape-focused character design with Andorians :) I actually can’t answer any of those questions accurately of course lol but I think it’s fun to fantasize about them anyway (finally got some more stuff done for my portfolio through that) The Andorian on the bottom right (and well upper right too lol) has been growing on me too tbh I might look for ways to include him in my speculation/thoughts about Aenar history 👀🦫
