the DVDis great, however the manga is more in depth (long plot, more character development, background etc) and has illustrations like the ones you are drawing, with similar alien script, as far as i can recall.
Download it if you can find it. (Then buy it, i've got the collection myself)
Some of the art from the Manga:
