Steef Christmas card curtasy from OWI! -

Sekto Springs · #61 12-03-2003, 08:44 PM

hold everything!

i see more of a resemblance here than with the other guy...

they also look alike, look at the head and jaw shapes...

oddguy · #62 12-04-2003, 04:21 AM

A side by side comparison of all three to determine which one.

Buck-Toothed man has facial features such as eyes and nose pulled away from the mouth, when orc man has his eyes and nose tightly close to his jaw.......just like our man in Spec 10. Whaddya kids tink?

I'm going with the buck toothed guy.
-He's standing next to the other hunter
-He has a hunched back
-He doesn't have any ears,

the guy with ears has similar eyes and mouth to the drawing, but his gun is completely different (though that cant be a reason) and he doesn't have a hunched back, and the bucked tooth guy is obviously smaller than the other hunter in botht eh chrimbo card and the painting.

EDIT:
I've just received my card, how I love it so!

I expected us Brits to have to wait much longer, evidently not

Btw, could someone please put links to high quality images of the previous cards, I had last couple of years through the post, but lost them

Teal · #64 12-04-2003, 09:57 AM

Just to reiterate... yeah, with "no eggs" I read it as no kids - like you see in the personals ads you all pore over when you're 13 looking for the funny ones.

And ha, see, I knew there were newts (well, they're nearly newts) On OW. So there. :P

Just because the karate blobs are poncing about waving their arms around doesn't mean they can actually DO karate. They may just be too fat to put their arms anywwhere else.

I personally tend to agree it looks like the buck toothed guy in that picture from Spectrum. but thats only from looking at those two pictures. I guess we need some type of third angle, or picture to compare here of the other creature as well.

Oddsville · #66 12-04-2003, 08:01 PM

Well the taller guy with the ears resembles the Spec 10 guy in the facial features and Mr. Big hat resembles Spec 10 by the hunch, etc.

One thing I noticed though is that the thing in Spectrum 10 is either squinting his left eye (our right) or he has some type of damaged/glass eye and the talller guy with the ears appears to have the same thing. That or it could just be the angle he's at, hard to tell.

Sekto Springs · #67 12-04-2003, 09:09 PM

i will admit, it looks like a cross between both the long hat guy and the orc.

yes, but remember the pic in the Spec. 10 was a production picture. There could have been a point after that drawing was made where they decided to make 2 new characters with the same similarities. I'm still rooting for the Orc-guy's side though, i have the book and after looking at the jaw and head (exclude the ears) aswell as his pants (which also resemble the Orc's) i say it's defineately an old version of him, but i could be wrong because in the book he's green and in the actual footage he's more yellow. But then again the bigger hunter is a different colour from the footage aswell.
I DUNNO!

i got mine today, so up it goes with the rest of my cards.

Mojo · #69 12-05-2003, 04:27 PM

I too think the bucktooth is the strange beast...

BTW, how do you get the cards? Where do you have to register?

Arcoiris · #70 12-05-2003, 04:30 PM

I got mine yesterday...
Is that what they were? I tend to fall back on track with these things.

I'm still waiting.

I'd like to know who called them Karate Blobs in the first place when they're blatently doing something more like Tai Chi.

paramiteabe · #73 12-05-2003, 05:54 PM

The buck tooth guy and the character in the art piece titled as "The Hunt" are the same. The artist never added the two fangs on the sides of the mouth as in the card picture. Because in art when you are depicting a scene with a character in the distance the detail is not as apparent as what it would be up close. Its the same character from a distance. The artist simply made it less with detail to give the illusion of depth in the piece. So its the same guy.

Esus · #74 12-05-2003, 06:12 PM

On the card, they are CG. In Spectrum, it is a painting, or some other type of art, though I'm with you, Paramiteabe, I think the buck toothed guy is the other hunter, though I suppose it is possible to have 3 hunters.

Sekto Springs · #75 12-05-2003, 06:19 PM

it is not a painting, the medium was digital

***Xavier*** · #76 12-05-2003, 06:20 PM

or maybe all the new characters aren't on the holliday card...
and the green spectrum guy isn't on the card and is someone else

keep your mind open

Esus · #77 12-05-2003, 06:24 PM

I stand corrected

, though I was only guessing

Al the Vykker · #78 12-05-2003, 07:14 PM

Yeah it is digital. Im pretty sure all the stuff in Spectrum or atleast most of it is for computer generated stuff. Honest mistake though.

Sekto Springs · #79 12-05-2003, 07:29 PM

yes there are lots of digitals, but not more than the actual paintings. i'd say the number of digital art and the painted art tie up at about the same.

DarkHoodness · #80 12-05-2003, 07:42 PM

Yay, I got my card this morning!

It's. . . Interesting. Thanks to OWI.

Maybe I would be looking foward to the new Steef game if I had an Xbox.
Or if they released a PC version. *hint hint, OWI. . .*

what?

Anyway, can anyone be sure of the Grub Hunter's colour? does anyone know what colour he is?

Mac the Janitor · #87 12-06-2003, 11:34 PM

Zach Roy Wilson, do not steal my avatar. Don't be such a spineless twit and steal other people's custom avatars...make your own, you little monkey raper. If you fail to comply, I will have no choice but to shove this large pinecone in an uncomfortable place of yours...

Sekto Springs · #88 12-06-2003, 11:39 PM

hehe, i must admit Mac is very witty when comes to insulting monkey rapers.

BTW, colour of grub hunter, somebody answer me this, just for once
