Yea it is really interesting how OWI relates things from our world to theirs. Its all part of the process of production. What your seeing in Oddworld is researched information transformed to OWI's vision. The artists take that and translate it to his or her own work. What you end up getting is something profound and rather cool. Atusiya This is the field I am working in college for.
A conceptual artist or designer must research information before he or she can create his or her world. Thats why a lot of things in Oddworld and any other game for that matter resembels things that are based on actual information in our world. And this is a perfect example. The Feeco Depot sign relating to those other 1930 train signs from the Art Deco.
