New Species of.... artists!!
 
I wonder who in oddworld designs all the signs!! i reckon their should be a species of artists on oddworld, they have a seperate species for everything else.

Enslaved by the Magog Cartel, to draw pictures of muds.
sweet idea huh!?

I think Ive seen somwhere in a screenshot Mudukons painting the fronts of the Vendo- mechines...
I dout that there is a species of artists because
(A) Art is a culteral thing and therefore something that all species should have there own type of, and
(B) If the pictures and signs where all made by only one group that is dedicated to nothing but art you would expect them to be of a higher quality then simple fulse colour cartoons.

That sounds like interesting idea! It could be possible you never know! :fuzblink:

art isn't just cultural ya know! people do it as a job as well and maybe they are just getting started as artist.

There are probably trained artist sligs to do it, or vyykers, little arms to get in all the detail!

art can be a job as well as an accountant or crazy scientist.

Why couldn't their be a species who is dedicated to art, vyykers are scientitsts and inventors thats all they do!

yup like the painting of the "Joconde" in the office of Lulu when he's Glockstar

Scrubs 04-12-2002 07:07 PM

Exactly Lulu obviously didnt draw those designs, so who did??

Maybe that's the gluk influence- the artists are actually really talented, and do amazingly complex and beautiful things, but they're forced to make crude advertising stuff because it's more mainstream and therefore more profitable. That sounds like a social injustice the folks at OWI, especially the professional artists, would be all too glad to expose. Good idea, Scrubs.

Or, maybe there are certain Glukkons who fancy themselves artists, and that's why it's all so crude. A regular Norman Glokwell! (ha ha *gets head crunched by passerby that's enraged by bad puns*)
