Teqnologyque Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) Hydralisk fangs I-... I Don't see it... The mandibles aren't a reference to anyting. Its just a bit from something Typhus ate a while ago that came back to haunt the memories of every living thing that tries to fight Typhus... and his Dentist...

RedSkittlez Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) .... It's not based off of anything from iconic games or movies. It's just the modified human lower jaw. http://th05.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/f/2014/067/f/1/wip_by_redskittlez_da-d5cb0n9.png Edited March 8, 2014 by RedSkittlez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santiak Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Im just saying it looks like it not saying it was stolen While I can, of course, see a similarity between the two, there are vital differences between the two, for me personally. The Hydralisk jaws are many times more pronounced, serve a different purpose (delivery of its urticating hairs, I believe), and are inspired by a snakes lower jaw, if I recall correctly. Meanwhile, Typhus' easthethic, while similar, is not nearly as pronounced, and - as RedSkittlez pointed out - a cannibalization of his victims bone-structure, serving a different purpose than either the Hydralisk (offense) or a snake (ingestion), being purely defensive in nature. Regardless, I can't really see how Typhus would be able to add protection to one of his most vital areas (read the part about how he percieves the world), for example by adding the entire lower jaw in its complete structure, without either comprimising that function itself, or looking like an agitated bulldog with a pronounced underbite: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teqnologyque Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 [PICTURE] see it now I see a giant slobbering monster. You're drawing connections that aren't there. Just because something looks similar to one person, does not mean it looks the same for everyone else. For example, when I see Typhus, I see: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, when I see Typhus, I see: I would post the circled pictures if I could but look at the parts on the side of the face and look at the first picture that's on this front page showing the front view of the frame and look on the helm it has fangs like that, that's all I was saying nothing more I wasn't saying the frame was identical to the picture just that one detail reminded me of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FableTale Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 see it now If it helps you feel better, I see it lol. Also I wonder if anyone in DE has seen this and has shown interest in bringing this concept to life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autarchist Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Bah, nothin wrong with similarity (seen The Guyver ever?) ! Not worth debating here. 'Skittlez art is sick & the concept itself is solid. Anything in game would go through DE artist and design filters anyway (like Zephyr) ...lore too! We're just feeding ideas. So we should just talk up what we like, or suggest toward what we might alter! Keep feeding the creative engine, don't stall it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep feeding the creative engine, don't stall it :) Agreed. :) Speaking of which, the concept seems like the perfect oppertunity to implement idle animations that incorporate other aspects of the frame than just the power or stance. I can't, for example, look at the Repose helmet, and not imagine the jointed appendages opening up, and Typhus then proceeds to "test" the air. A small thing, of course, given Idle animations so rarely come into play to begin with - perhaps more when the hubs come along. Of course, the possibility to also have it be a random occurance while moving is also an option. Wondering if that could be incorporated with the other helmets, or other parts of his anatomy, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSkittlez Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) ..... Well, you know what? A Hydralisk's lower jaw reminds me of a Snake's jaw, Or a Wolf's jaw, Or even a Lynx's jaw. http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2014/067/6/0/wip_by_redskittlez_da-d543shh.jpg (And don't worry! I've added red outlines to this reference just in case you can't see it.) It's hard to be original these days, most people don't even bother trying. All I've done is take something familiar to me (I.E. Different bone structures and various insect parts with a dash of Guyver for that fresh Warframe smell) and try to make it my own. And don't get me started on the Hydralisk design! It looks like the bastard child of an Alien Queen and a Predator. People need to stop making these comparisons. Yes it looks like one thing or another, but that's because if you squint hard enough, everything kinda looks the same anyway, or has similar elements. Also; Does Ash remind you of anything? http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2014/067/d/1/wip_by_redskittlez_da-d61i55o.jpg Edited March 19, 2014 by RedSkittlez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSkittlez Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) ...... Well, no, Boiling Blood is percentile; the more health you use, the more damage it does. It plays into Typhus' high-risk/high-reward play style, and the more you use it the more you chip away and eventually have to heal.

neKroMancer Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 OMG, I want this one in the game already. DE, please add him into the game. The concept and art style is solid. I love the part where his armor chipped off with damage taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PandemoniumWatchdog Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Cool concept. I'm getting a very similar feel from the exoskeleton sketch as I got from Greed from FMA. Inspiration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karasume Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 It looks like Zerg. I mean what gave him an idea about infested warframe? It's on the first post. Typhus is based off of certain bugs. It's not Infested either, more like a parasite. It's a pretty big difference. ^-^ If you want to say that it still counts as Infestation, I'd like to direct you to this post: https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/176524-warframe-concept-typhus-parasiteviral-type-update-redskittlez-sketches-07032014/page-14#entry2225263 Pretty good information that separates Typhus from the Infestation and links him to the other Warframes. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kintsurugi Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Zerg? Is that some kind of new Predator? /rhetoricalsarcasm I think the concept is great. I was thinking of a Dark Knight (Final Fantasy Tactics, sacrifice/steal HP) style frame and just the other day wondered how Guyver (if Warframe were to have an anime equivalent?) would do as a warframe archetype, but this is better than both.

Corn_Doge Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 why is typhus' armor segmented? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyriann Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 why is typhus' armor segmented? Typhus has an exosqueleton similar to the one insects have. These segments are more armor plates than just dividing elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
