I... don't get it.

He's some guy who isn't really interested in Oddworld who wants to promote his abstract metal tat. There's not much to get.

I like the saucepan.

Not so much 'odd', as 'fubar'.

How about now =P ?



@MeechMunchie you'll see :)

Amazing! How are you building this?

It's growing! But is it Oddworld? I spot the ship from MO for some reason.

Looks Vvyker-y.

O RLY?

It's worth pointing out that, according to Twitter conversations (which are difficult to piece together because @russianbox doesn't seem to use the 'reply' function), this chap has sent (so far) three tubes to the new Just Add Water offices.

But what are these images? ._.

Sorry for not using the reply button more! twitter is a bit new to me!


is it a ship or boat!?

I think he's trying to do this:

Sort of...

Sort of…

The title of this thread is a typo, and should read "Blimp".

OOoh now I get it!

Would Lloyd like me to change the title of this thread to 'blimp', or does he prefer to keep the aura of mystery?

:O well I couldn't just give you the word blimp in the title now could I? =P

Well done at getting it after 3 pictures :D lets keep this to ourselves until tomorrow :)

here's part 4, or as I like to call it, m


@Max the Mug WELL DONE!

@Steamer_KING so close. you were in the right ball park.

@Splat Yeah can do :)

@crashpunk BINGO!

@MeechMunchie and you thought I was spam =P


:D see you tomorrow!

Shekshah!

But still, what is the point of this?

AM I SERIOUSLY THE ONLY ONE NOT GETTING THIS? (I think I am :()

I like you Lloyd, I like your humor. keep it up please.

HE'S BUILDING A VIRTUAL AND PERHAPS ALSO A REAL MODEL OF A BLIMP FROM SOME OLD OWI CONCEPT ART

GAWD

Oh. OOOOOH.

Now I got it. Ha.

I like it! I have come to notice you all have become extremely cynical to everything you question. What's up with that.

sometimes things don't need a reason. I made it because I wanted to model it. The Art of Oddworld is an amazing book.

:D

Creepily organic flesh tones on the canvas and sails!

Otherwise, very good. :D Just hold it over a soot-belching cooling tower for an hour or two to dirty it up and you'll be there!

I think it looks very cool!

Very nice. Any plans for others?

Mmm, here's another that has peaked my interest in FC making it a grand total of three, although, I think one of them is going down the "deserted" route.

EDIT: How rude of me not to praise your work. I fucking like it :D

Lloyd that's amazing work! Good job :)

@Splat a thank you!

@Dynamithix :)

@MeechMunchie Well I was eyeing up the concept art minecart on page 105. its really nice but that's only a dream for now :) still need to do the lowpoly of the blimp

@Ridg3 FC? fan corner? whos going down what deserted route?

@AvengingGibbons :) Thanks!

Nowtuns project, but it might have something to do with him having a family and all that nonsense. I hope you don't have any commitments so you can stay here and entertain us like the court jester you are. Just kidding. Maybe.

Lloyd, brilliant, brilliant work. :D I approve massively.

Well I approve even more massively. The lack of textural detail does make it seem as though this is a small-scale model, or a toy, but it's still really good.

And here I thought you were just spamming or something. Shame on me.

Excellent work! Ya have some skills, lloyd. Rep+ for you. ;)
I'll certainly be checking in here more often from now on. Awesome job on the model.
