T'skrang do not dress like pimps, unless they happen to be pimps, and then they have better taste than your average tailless procurer. Take your Hollywood swashbuckler, brighten up the darker colors, and make him lizard-like (t'skrang are warm-blooded and lactate, making them closer to monotremes than lizards), and you have a t'skrang. Make him blueish-green (as opposed to the mud-brown Sauron), and you have Sky. More or less. I have a feeling that Sky would say that he is often imitated, but never duplicated.
