Blitzkrieg

This took me many an hour to complete, and I'm somewhat happy with the result. The lines are a bit bad because I did this with a mouse. =/ Also, the sky background is a photo I took some time ago. W00t.
Anyway, a few Resisty members were standing out there for no apparent reason, when they were suddenly and somewhat randomly attacked by the Irken's new "toy", something I call the Shining Catoblepas.

Topsell- "Pliny calleth this beast Catablepon, because it continually looketh downwards, and saith all the parts of it are but smal excepting the head, which is very heavy, and exceedeth the proportion of his body, which is never lifted up, but all living creatures die that see his eies. By which there ariseth a question whether the poison which he sendeth foorth, proceede from his breath, or from his eyes. Whereupon it is more plausible, that like the cockatrice, he killeth by seeing, than by the breath of his mouth, which is not competible to any other beasts in the world."
