I have no idea how you are doing this but keep it up! I love it!

The Mantis looks more like a lizard to me than an insect, though. Maybe move the mandibles further out so they're not quite so part of his mouth? Or add antennae?

How do alternate human skintones look? (That would be my biggest worry)

I tried to make the Zoltan look like a more bland peaceful creature made out of a sort of gel. But I'm not sure about the glow yet.

I'm also using more of the same colours so that people don't get too confused by the new faces, and know which is which more easily.

And since this mod only changes a few sprites. I should be able to finish this fairly quickly.

Edit: Update! Slugs!

Love your work buddy

I think the most inspiring concept art I've seen is the one I'm attaching. Maybe it'll inspire you too...

I didn't actually use reptiles as inspiration. but I did try not to make it too bug-like since I wanted to make it look more like an alien. But I suppose I can see if I can improve it a bit more.

Right now I haven't incorporated skintone into his face, just hair colour. But I can give it a go and see how it looks.

Yes I've seen that picture. I quite like the Mantis and Engi in that one

Another preview. I finished the Engi and Rockman. Only the Lanius and Human Female left.
