Gabbit thread
 
Okay, I was looking around and found this.
I was wondering if any of you knew if these where a bunch of original plans for the Gabbit species, or just some drawing made for fun?

I know this question will be answered very soon, so we can later on use this thread for questions about Gabbits, or just anything you have to say about them.

short questions can be asked in the "Oddworld Questions and Answers III"...

This picture is part of the pics released to promote the Oddworld Book. And is actually 2 pages of the book.

Those concepts are only some iterations Farzad made to find Munch's final design

Godlesswanderer 01-15-2006 01:16 AM

From how similar they are to the final Munch design, they are probably early concept designs for Munch.

Edit:

Damn my slow internet...

Gabbits are pretty good, if cooked properly. Grilling is the best way to cook 'em, but the key is to find the right kinds of maranades and seasonings.

This picture is in the book?!
I have to take it out then.

If that's how munch was going to look he looks oddier than he are ready is.

Xavier 01-16-2006 06:50 AM

Cullen that Image is OK to post since it was released by OWI themself to promote the book.

andmunch wasn't supposed to look like that, Farzad was just trying some ideas

Cullen Heath 01-16-2006 08:33 AM

Are you Positive that it's okay?
Please don't be wrong Xavier.

Xavier 01-16-2006 08:57 AM

I'm quite sure yes, since it's obviously not scanned from the book.
you can't scan a book perfectly without any mess up between 2 pages

Nate 01-16-2006 02:52 PM

I always thought that was the funniest page in the book; particularly the design where Munch's eyes are inside his mouth.

Cullen Heath 01-16-2006 04:34 PM

Yeah, it is pretty funny. I like the Gabbit that looks like a toilet because of his mouth. The picture in the middle bottom.

metroixer 01-16-2006 04:35 PM

Wow a gabbit thread. Well um... I guess gabbits are good. But have you ever tried GABBIAR!? That stuff is good. Strangely enough...Gabiar looks exactly like russian caviar.

Nate 01-16-2006 10:03 PM

Seriously dude... that joke is getting old.

Cullen Heath 01-16-2006 10:05 PM

Hehe. I know, I saw it at leat 3 times in the old Babbiwog thread, and now twice here.

metroixer 01-17-2006 07:40 AM

A joke? I made that up :confused:

Nate 01-17-2006 11:42 AM

So you're saying that nothing you make up could ever be funny? *withholds comment*

My point was; funny or not, you've said the tasty gabbiar thing many times and it is getting rather old. Which is saying something as it was fairly prehistoric even the first time you said it.

metroixer 01-17-2006 11:59 AM

Oh that! I thought you were reffering to the russian caviar that looks like gabiar :rolleye:. sorry.

Dancing Steef 01-19-2006 02:58 AM

A Gabbit thread...YAY! I liked the one that looked or reminded me about a clown:lol: and I think Gabbits are cute:fuzgrin:

Cullen Heath 01-19-2006 03:48 PM

Do you mean the one with a really big smile and feet like a Chronicler?

Xavier 01-20-2006 01:35 AM

with a dubble feet? http://www.oddworlduniverse.com/togg...O/RAMO0036.jpg

you'r strange... :p

Cullen Heath 01-20-2006 03:24 PM

Yes, with double feet. Didn't you notice the Gabbit with double feet?


Also, why am I Strange? I will take that as a compliment:).

scrab queen 05-02-2006 06:53 PM

dude, this is creeping me out

Nate 05-02-2006 08:23 PM

*sigh*

What's creeping you out to the extent that you had to revive a three month old thread to tell you it was creeping you out without providing any detail and prompting me to write a ridiculous run-on sentence?

scrab queen 05-02-2006 08:29 PM

sorry bout' that. Somtimes i forget to read the date. :( :( :(

Nate 05-02-2006 09:05 PM

I'm not complaining about you reviving an old thread, just that you did it without contributing anything new.

Munch's Master 05-03-2006 12:31 PM

I must say, some of those designs are pretty cool. I'm even planning on using one as a Gabbit subspecies/variant in a future fic of mine (That is if my first is ever done). The 'toilet' one I call a Bullfrog Gabbit. The top left one I think of as an Angler Gabbit (as in Angler fish). The one above the bottom left I call a Hammerhead Gabbit. Not very original I know, and its the first time I've seen the latter 2 so they're on the spot names, but meh. I think it's surprising how different Gabbits are now compared to some of those designs. Some of them don't seem fish-like/amphibious, they just seem Odd. More suiting to some sort of land animal. And one of those concepts definitely remins me of a Kinto.

skillya_glowi 05-06-2006 10:29 AM

Well, I guess that the other designs weren't as cute as the one they picked but it was something...I like the toilet one though, and the others were just plain creepy.

And scrab queen, I don't ever read the date. You're not alone =)
Maybe it's a useful habit I should pick up.

And I trust I'm not reviving anything old, because this was at the top?

Ninjaxe 05-06-2006 11:07 AM

Soon this all about gabbits and the misturned misfits. I was determined to say that all the Gabbits in the world. Could there be a chance that there are disfigured gabbits.

With all the industrial substances from the glukkon factory surely the pollution can create a three eyed gabbit.

Or is that the ma' spa is so clean this doesnt happen.

magic9mushroom 05-10-2006 05:59 PM

No place in oddworld is truly clean.
