Hork-Bajir. Sounds a bit like Ork Badger, hmm...

An interesting race, the H-B. Bio-engineered to cultivate trees on a planet devastated by an asteroid impact, and kept out of their creators's dwellings by other bio-engineered creatures (such as [link] [link] and [link]).
The H-B are nowhere near as dangerous as they look, all their blades are purely for cutting out bark to eat, and their intelligence is only that of a toddler (usually), and often take the most simple, direct route, such as slicing open their own skull to prove there is no brain-controlling parasite there!

They sorta remind me of Gigan from Godzilla :lol:

NEXT: Andalites

I like this take. Most versions really over-blade it; why would it need blades to cut bark on its BACK?

Blame it on the girls who know what to do,
Blame it on the boys who keep hitting on you,
Blame it on your mother for the things she said,
Blame it on your father but you know he's dead.

This one seems overbladed to me too though, the elbow blades look much too long. Plus, I always pictured a more vertical face than a horizontal face (for example, a horse or a human has a vertical face, lizards etc have vertical faces.)

Let's get together and have some fun!

It has blades in all the logical places; I don't know the physics of cutting bark off a tree, so I wouldn't know about the length...

THAT is what a Hork-Bajir should look like! I'm very, very impressed!

I'd rather we just skip the formalities.
:iconwatercat1302:
The neck is a little bit long, don't you think? Other than that, the hork-bajir looks fine.

Cosplay, my never ending dream...
