The green martians hatch at 5 years old and then are trained to fight by the females. i saw a pic by Fredrick K. T. Andersson and i thought thats a great pose for a martian training day. (look him up hes a damn fine and funny artist)

The apt, of the edgar rice burroughs mars books is discribed as having a head not unlike earths hippo with multiple eyes and tusks, well thats hard to picture so i had to try

the apt is also described as having arms sprouting from its neck and four stuby legs, so i mixed a polar bear a hippo and let imagination make it work

the vicious white apes are hard to draw for me as i see apes as placid creatures, so i had to add a touch of insanity to the eyes to make it work

the people of barsoom only wear harnesses, leaving them naked, but i studied harnesses through history and when put on a figure most would leave you far from naked. I added a codpiece to a few although im still more up for the hanging lose feel
