And then Marvak has to come and be an asshole by showing everyone how much better she is a drawing...
Lol not really. Anyway, I bring you... the Rybir!   Weighing 6 tonnes and standing 7 feet tall, the Rybir may seem like the ultimate killing machine. Was once used by Slig Security Forces as a beast of war, but the Rybir's lethargic behaviour and (for the most part) disinterest in killing made it very inconvenient. Furthermore, when breeding season came around, females on heat proved to be utterly uncontrollable, even by teams of Big Bros. The Rybir can go for almost two weeks without the need to eat, their primary source of food being the larger animals such as Scrabs, Paramites and Meetles. Mudokons and Elums prove to be too quick to catch. The Rybir kills it's prey by lying in wait, often for days, in long grass untill an unsuspecting creature wanders by. The Rybir then makes a sudden leap, pinning the prey against the ground and crushing it to death, before tearing at it's flesh and bones with it's beak. The Rybir has four eyes; two facing forward, for enhanced binocular vision, to hunt prey. And two at the sides of its head, to watch for potential predators. You'd think that such a large and dangerous beast would have no predators, but the Rybir's skin is on of the toughest and softest of all mammals, with the weakness being the soft underbelly. Brave Mudokons who wish to prove themselves may set out on a quest to bring back the hide of a Rybir as a trophy; indeed, the cloak that Marvak (my Mudokon fancharacter) wears is made of the hide of the Rybir he killed, many years ago. |
The Prat looks great, I think I meant hawk, so it's fine.
I love the Ryber, and the Klast sounds much better than mine, lol. Well, I've drawn some, I'm gonna try and scan some pictures soon, and I mean it now. |
Holy Fuzzle! Where the glukkon did you get an idea like that Marvak!??! And yes, you sorta have made everyone else's pics look bad... even mine, and mine were done on the computer! It's a shame about the tail though. It sorta just a tail... nothing special about it like the rest of the body. But otherwise the rybir is astonishing.
Sorry Kastere, I'd give a pic for the klast a go but the chemical whatmabobs confused me. |
Hehe ^^; Sorry bout the outdong everyone's art buisness. I'll keep my nose out.
I had the design for the Rybir even before I knew about Oddworld, so I've done quite a few experiments and such with the thing. I just felt that a tail that was too large or swishy or anything like that would make the beast feel out-of-balance. I wanted to draw attention to the cruel face and hulking forelegs. And also it's a reference to the bulldog, and thus to toughness in general: small tail, big penis. Oh and Carnix, just if you wanted to know, with the first picture I scanned in the scetch, opened it in The GIMP (it's pretty much the same as Photoshop), added a new layer, set the layer to 'multiply' and coloured over it. <3 |
Your sketches look quite cool, Marvak. :D
|
|
Mollek... WHY THE HELL ARE YA POSTIN PIC!?!?11?
|
...Mollck, you're supposed to post pictures here of made up species, not post your random stuff everywhere.
:DAnd Marvak, I like the crazy heat idea, heat is awesome. |

A snork. Herbivore, these gentle creatures use their highly evolved smell to 'see'. They use their claws to strip bark off trees and to use in self-defense. |
How do we do that alf's brother's mate?
|
Yer how do we do that? and Hi Cream :lol:
|
Mabey you should try reading the thread newbie!
Trust Skillya to show everyone up with something like that. |
Heh, I love that snork beast! :D
It looks so weird but lovely. |
I find it funny the way it has fur growing out its ears and but. :p
|
What and thir the heck is the newdbie?

Oh, burn!
Anyways... http://fc02.deviantart.com/fs19/i/20...killyaslig.jpg this pretty fella is a Warbler... A Warbler is a strange creature, and is incredibly fast, sometimes using its spiked feet to stab prey. its back spikes are only used to warn off predators. Its second mouth can be used as a weapon, capable of snapping bones and breaking skulls. It can also use it to suffocate creatures. |
Hehe, it's mouth looks like the worm things on King Kong.
|
I was going to say that!
Great job, damn, I want to draw some now, but I don't have photoshop, so my colouring is terrible. For now, here is my idea: Name: Thwarpp Apperiance: Mothlike, with 3 pairs of legs, all thick and furry, and large pale blue silky wings, aswell as thick feather like anteneares, yet with a thick furry tail a kind of snout with carnivious teeth, the size of a wolf, with mysterious black eyes with a blueish tinge. Think a cross between a moth and that dragon from a neverending story. Behaviour: Nocternial, social, follow a system simular to moths and butterflies, live for a year or so, and can be aggreesive, but look quit passive and peacefull aas they sail through the nights sky. |

Oh no, not the l word... don't get me started on llamas lol.
Reminds me more of an anteater lion thingy. I drew some picture just got to get round to scanning them. |
Carnix Devilz Daughter was ment to put is what is the newbie.
|
These pics are all very cool.. But... None of these seem really oddworldish... More like just cool pics. Not trying to be mean.
I might post some pics of some creatures I came up with. |
I have one...I don't have a name for him nor is he finished. :dead:
http://i31.tinypic.com/ouodo6.jpg I was thinking maybe Roy(my Mudokon character) could be able to turn into him like how Abe is able to turn into the Shrykull but Roy doesn't have to have hand scars. =/ |
It's a Crabbacudda! Lol. I like it.
|
I drew another "odd" looking creature..again no name.
http://i25.tinypic.com/14iec5t.jpg He's slow moving. He waits for his prey to come to him...I guess. |
Slogosaur! Ora a Dinlog!
|
I could kill him by pushing him over :p. Not natures most durable design unfortunately. (then again the same can be said about Scrabs)
|
Slogosaur! xD I like that one. :D
Yeah but I wouldn't get in front of him. Or else CRUNCH! |
i cannot believe this thread is still going!
my only sucsessful thread! keep em coming! (great drawing btw oddyouko) |
Those Snork things are really interesting. =D
I have, like, a thousand odd-creatures I came up with. Here's one I like the best; its also the pic in my signature. http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/448...003ou1.jpg?s=1 I call em' Alligaptors, because when I was drawing them I was trying to make them look like a cross between an alligator and a velociraptor... it didn't turn out that way, but it still looks kinda neat. |
Cool! i would draw some for all to see but i suck at drawing oddworld stuff, and i forgot how to attach stuff (silly old me) can someone please tell me how to please!!
ABM (EDIT) Thanks t-nex that would be great... :p |
Nice draws!
