want Mudokon w/gun pic
 
I swear I remember seeing a cool picture of a Mudokon (possibly a mean looking Abe) holding a rather large gun.

My details may/are probably be off. Plus my memory could be playing a horrible trick on me but it was fairly recent. If anybody knows what I'm talking about and have the power, please post it for me. Thanks.

the only Mud whit a "gun" I saw is a Mudarcher

But I think it isn't what you want :(

Is it a pic that goes under your username?

Eibu 01-06-2002 03:24 PM

No...it was pre-MO and it's an actual CG image that looked like it was in a factory setting with a mean looking Abe/Mudokon holding a big rail-gun or something.

I swear I'm not crazy.

Eibu..i THINK i know what your talking about...aaaarrh, now it'll be bugging me till i see it. thanks, lol :D

I think I know which one you mean Its the one where you can see down into the gun and the mudokon has one of its eyes closed and its gun is really big is that the one?

I think I know the image you are referring to, but I don't have it.

It's not an official image, but there were a couple of guys back on the ezBoard forums (and I think they signed up here too) who were running a site for Oddworld quake mods. One of them was named Chairwalker I think.

Anyway, I think these guys had an Abe with a gun. If I can find the URL of their site, or the image, I will post it here.

Abe Babe...

Edit: OK... I didn't have to look far for at least part of what you are looking for. I checked Chairwalker's profile in the Memberlist and found the site. Bad news is the site seems to only have a front intro page.

Good news is... they have this banner which features the image in question.

I guess it's not the complete image though.

The website is http://www.moddworld.f2s.com and there is a contact email... so you might want to email them for the image.

i don't know about any of you guys, but i would love to run around and blow people up as Abe in Quake (GREAT stress reliever if your stuck in MO...lol). Would you happen to have any idea where those might be located so that i may download meself a Quake-Abe, Abe Babe? Thanks a lot if you do.

Eibu 01-07-2002 08:50 PM

well thanks for your work on that one!

...but that's not the image. In fact it's really off. The image I remember seeing is a Mud (possibly Abe) holding a large gun but it's from a side view (like in Abe games) but it's larger and it looks like it's in a factory setting and is dim litted.

Maybe I'm just confabulating all this, but it's so vivid in my head and I remember seeing it at a site. BTW it looked official like some CG artwork made by OW.

I'm probably "still" on the wrong track... but the only other image I know of a Mudokon and a gun is this one...

http://www.oddworld.com/pops/pop111.jpg

Which is just Abe being whacked in the head with a gun.

This one is official, it is from Oddworld.com under the Abe section. Actually I don't even know of any "official" images of Mudokons holding guns, and my Oddworld image collection exceeds 1000 images.

Abe Babe...

Like your description it's a in game image, no?

So I guess it's a traficated image

Thanks Abebabe-sama. While that's still not the image inside my head I've decided that I've probably confabulated the image and the last image you just posted is probably the closest thing. So now I give up, but thanks anyway!

Jeepers creepers! Don't you people know that mudokons don't use guns?!?! Just farts and grenades and harmless stuff like that. ;)

Yes.. in the games they don't. But in the games they don't also run a TV-show or read a magazine or sit on a sofa.. But you still can find hundreds of these pics on the internet.. :rolleyes:

Please note the little winky-face in my post. It's obvious that anyone can make a picture depicting anything they want.

*cracks up at that Quake modd* Oh god, that's a hilarious Banner.. doncha just love cut and paste? (For a guy holding a gun, he looks kinda.. half awake)

I thought that the winky face was there because you talked about the "harmeless" stuff.. ;)

Yeah. Anyone can make a pic of what ever they want. I'm just saying that your point was kind of inrelavent because allthough muds don't carry guns in the games there may still be a lot of pictures of them carrying guns..

It wasn't irrelevant; IT WAS A JOKE! I was just having a little fun about this determined search for a mudokon with a gun, playing -- that is, acting -- the Oddworld nerd who insists on "realism." You say mudokons don't use guns in the game. I say mudokons don't exist except in the games, although I say it kiddingly because obviously, fan art can depict mudokons doing anything that anyone wants them to. While the joke may have been subtle (it wasn't that subtle), that doesn't make my joke "irrelevant."
