Oddworld anatomy -

Hmm, these drawings all look well done, and highly focused on the intent of making an atamony. But my thoughts is that in the Slig's nervous system, there would be a great deal of nerves in the tail of the Slig, to control the pants. Also, wouldn't there be at least muscle in a Slig's tenticles? They seem to do something while a Slig is speaking. But besides that, I'm impressed with these atamonies. Maybe I will do one sometime....

Here's the Sea Rex

Matriar · #93 06-27-2006, 10:45 AM

Nice.

Don't they have some carnassials? I never played Munch's odyssey...

dripik_12 · #94 06-27-2006, 09:50 PM

I don't know

I never played Munch's oddysee too

Mudoko_Jedi · #95 06-27-2006, 10:13 PM

I have and you never see one.

Matriar · #96 06-28-2006, 04:03 AM

Yeah right. Me too

Zerox · #97 06-28-2006, 12:18 PM

Sea rex's weren't even in Munch's Oddysee. They were cut due to technical constraints and their massive size. They only ever appeared in that one video...and if anyone could give me a link to that video, I would be most grateful.
Based on the Sea rex skeleton, I presume that means that you think muscles go right through along the whole tail as opposed to lots of muscles at the base, hm? (their isn't as much bone for muscles to attach to there, but from the pic thats what I based, with alot of flesh around the base of tail and along the tail, very thin with little room exepect for bone and tendons)
Just my thoughts. Also, you don't think its neck is very flexible, or AS flexible (this is based on the no. of vertabrae in the neck)
Just what I can see there.

I would be too. I never saw this creature before.

somebody please supply us a link to this holy grail of short videos with searexs in them.

Steef skeleton

gobbo · #**101** 06-30-2006, 12:07 PM

i alway thouth that paramites were spiderlike and did not have bones.

Mudoko_Jedi · #**102** 07-01-2006, 03:07 AM

same here.

Zerox · #**103** 07-01-2006, 12:32 PM

Ooh, good Steef.
Paramites have, if you look closely, muscled limbs etc. which need a skeleton to attach to.
paramites are thuoght of as spiderlike only mainly because they can spin web, I would have thought.

Mudoko_Jedi · #**104** 07-01-2006, 11:06 PM

what do you base the spinning web theory from.

Bullet Magnet · #**105** 07-02-2006, 07:41 AM

Have you not played AE or AO? They spring traps by suddenly descending into the screen on webs. The temples they reside in are full of giant webs, in necrum you can see the mummified remains of dead paramites (they wrap up their dead like spiders wrap up captures insects). Also in AE you can possess them and make them climb up paramite silk strands.

I wouldn't think there would be particularly, since I presume they are not modified by the Vykkers in any way. The pants may be controlled by certain muscle movements in the vestigial legs of the Slig (not a tail, I've checked...and VERY vestigial. They're fused together)

dripik_12 · #**107** 07-02-2006, 10:26 AM

Grubb,Fuzzle,BigBro and Slog skeleton

Mudoko_Jedi · #**108** 07-03-2006, 12:40 AM

no i havnt played AO or AE but i know the story.

Matriar · #**109** 07-03-2006, 02:17 AM

The slog skeleton is cool!

dripik_12 · #**110** 07-03-2006, 11:08 AM

thanks

Zerox · #**111** 07-03-2006, 12:56 PM

I agree. Thses are very good, but I jsut think differently about the Big Bro...I've looked really clsoely at the pictures and pair this woith design drawings, and it turns out really that the head goes right back to enar the body, with eyes right near the front, and a short, stiff neck supporting it. Do you know what I mean? I'd scan pics to make sure, but that would be illegal...damn. (I mean pics fromk the Art of OI book)

Don't post that here, use PM. Don't SPAM or post off topic randomly like that.

Matriar · #**116** 07-22-2006, 07:04 AM

Mhmm

Looks good!

Mudoko_Jedi · #**117** 07-22-2006, 09:15 PM

thats cool.

ziggy · #**118** 07-25-2006, 05:51 AM

I gave a shot at making a paramite skeleton

Matriar · #**119** 07-25-2006, 06:02 AM

Wohow! That's a great paramite skeleton!

Zerox · #**120** 07-25-2006, 07:56 AM

Kewl, but it's a bit hard to seem some of the bones clearly from that angle. And with the outline. Also, I'm not sure about the hip. I'd be sure it would have changed to a more suitable shape, as it looks human. And humans are bipedal.
Don't mind me though, I'm just nitpicking. I complain about everything anyway.
The Gabbit's snout tip is cartilage then, I presume?
And obviously, it's 100% class. As usual, off course.
