Well. I guess it’s time to share this surprisingly kinky concept art for the xenomorph Queen from Alien vs. Predator. (Artist is Farzad Varahramyan)

It doesn't make much sense to me for the mudokons to be mammals. They're evolved from birds, hatched from eggs and the workers(?) have no nipples. I guess things might just work differently on Oddworld.

((Honestly, it doesn’t make much sense. They hatch from eggs and descended from birds, but it’s confirmed the females have breasts and nipples. Glukkon queens have those parts, too. 

It doesn’t make sense, going by how things work on our planet. Sometimes, all we can do is remember it’s an alien planet and the same natural laws don’t necessarily apply.))

Some concepts for baby sligs. The mask in the top left is used to restrict their brain growth. The wheel attached to them helps them move around.

Artist: Farzad Varahramyan, 2000

Some more samples of concept art for the Feral Predator shared by Alec Gillis, Farzad Varahramyan (the full body concept) and Justice Joseph (Spear Gun)

The Feral Predator’s bone mask was a notion that PREY director dannytrs thought would make for a nice variation on the traditional Predator bio mask. tom_woodruffjr and I had the pleasure of art directing an amazing team of concept artists including michael_vincent_art ,  farzad_varahramyan ,jfields217, the_justice_joseph

Swipe for earlier iterations, including an internally illuminated bone mask. Swipe further to meet the Crucifix Fish. I’ve been trying to find a place for this beauty in a design for years! It had its day here.

The Bone mask started as a cool 3D sculpt by  michael_vincent_art , then molded by  h2originals , a clay copy created, then detailed by sculptors Joey Orosco,  andy_bergholtz and savannahsuderman

We’ve worked with Michael on a few projects and I always have a blast with him. I’ve always loved biologically plausible creatures so any concept artist who enjoys talking about viper sensor pits and secondary faces hidden in plain sight on tigers is okay by me.

Don’t get me started on communicating through pheromones or the difference between squid tentacles and arms. Chemotactility? Not a topic for polite conversation. Thanks to dannytrs for letting us run feral on this one.

Queen Skillya as described in dear Alf and the Oddworld wiki:

Has zero maternial attachment to her Slig offspring, has no moral qualms about giving them away to the Glukkons as security/slaves for profit and punishes them for disobeying their Glukkon superiors by cooking and eating them.
