I've always imagined the Demiurg to look like the Dwemer from Elder Scrolls.

Spoiler:

Does this image work? It's showing as blank to me, it shouldn't

I headcanon the Demiurg as very closely resembling the Dvar from Age of Wonders: Planetfall.

It's not artwork, but aren't they described in one of the Cain books? (The 'leaked' Jes Goodwin concept art appears to be fan stuff from Deviant Art)

That is some cool artwork Vector Strike.

That resembles the Forge Father faction from Mantic very much.

Actually, I think that faction would be probably along the lines of what GW would do with Squats (or a 'dwarf in space' archetype) if they were ever to re-visit it as a concept (probably not a surprise if you think how many GW staff have gone to work with Mantic)

I had thought there was something in the Xenology book, but looked it up and it was just artwork of a Demiurg artifact in the Xenology book (which doesn't really give any clue about them).

This is executive level conspiracy thinking, and worthy of 40K.

It also makes an excellent fluff background for a full conversion army. Use Tau army rules (or any rules frankly) and convert the heck of it. They can be a subject race of the Tau, like the Kroot or other "allies."

A blast from the past reminder:

If GW wanted to bring Squats back, their current Kharadron Overlords from AoS could be way to do so:
