Title: Looking for Shivan pictures
Post by: dogeddie on June 11, 2008, 03:30:20 pm
I saw the animation from the game re: the Shivans, but it's not too clear. Anyone have some good pics of them?

All I have are the four head ANIs from  blackhole's Shivan Datafiles, if you want those...

DAMN IT! The archive isn't working anymore! I knew it, I should've saved them while I could. God damn my lazy ass.

I got a few! Save them, everybody, save them!

I formally petition we ban that picture. It was annoying enough when it wasn't over-used.

In the wrong thread (or if it's in every single thread), its an eyesore.

I agree.

You can't use it sparingly, sorry. Because if everybody uses it sparingly, then it stops becoming sparinglyized and becomes common. Like it is now.

Higher resolution also available.

By higher resolution, you mean absolutely ****ing huge pictures (3000x3000) don't you? ;)

I have all of them saved on my comp if the archive stops working.

If you have absolutely ALL of them, maybe you should put them into a ZIP/RAR/7-zip archive and upload it to freespacemods ?

Btw, there's another render of a shivan on Setekh's site.

They're probably calmly chatting when BOOM the Shivan tears their heads off!

Obviously they don't have a keyboard and mouse.

Im more concern about how they do to fit into the astaroth... or the dragon class figthers.. really small and difficult to hit.. those must be big fighters.. and seems terrans (comparing to that) tend to create bigger fighters, wonder is it's about the life support crap and all that..

PD: great pictures!

We shouldn't start this here. It would develop into another Knossos discussion.

In any case, what's the story behind Carl?

Well it was said somewhere in canon that the fighters got their power from the Shivan itself. So its sort of like the Shivans are integrated into the fighter.

Don't start that either. Some freaking idiot will post that idiotic picture again.
