Are these from Baldur's Gate?

dplax · 12-01-2004, 04:35 PM

I was just cleaning out my image folder and I found a few images from several months ago, I think they are from BG but I would like to be sure. Can someone confirm this for me?

krunchyfrogg · 12-01-2004, 04:59 PM

I'm 99% sure they come from the 3rd Edition D&D Monster Manual.

Nope. They're part of the artwork for Baldur's Gate 2. Not too long ago Xen's little brother (impersonating Xen) acted as if he'd made the drawings himself. A simple check-up at Bioware reveils that they are, in fact, artwork for BG2.

The Beholder, at least, appears in the manual. But where does it digest its food?

Pet peeve of mine: Dragons with no muscles. I've seen more bad Dragons in my life than I'd care to count; some with wing bones that just erupt out of their shoulders, with no musculature at all. This one has a little bit, but still--compared to the slashing it can do with its legs, what kind of Wing Buffet can those twiggy little flaps create?

And I'll bet Illithids wear those long skirts because they don't want anyone to know they all have a thing for women's underwear and pantyhose. That's why they have their base in Athkatla, you know, so they can have their subscription to "Nylon Nights" delivered by the mailman (in plain brown wrapper, of course) just like everyone else in the city, and then they just mark up the price and export it back home. Ahhh, who said Economics was boring?

What, just because it has no room for organs means it doesn't digest?

Just how much do you know about magic, anyway?

Hey, Xen, the pics are still up there, on DevArt. Here's a link to the gallery BTW. Was just browsing a week ago, and this thread came up handily to remind you, if you're reading.

Xen · 12-03-2004, 12:24 PM

Yes I can see. Is there any way to delete them?

RoSs_bg2_rox · 12-03-2004, 12:37 PM

Yes, although it isn't hard. I thought you would have done it months ago after the whole commotion.

When you sign on to devart and look at one of your submissions there is a small icon which says delete deviation. Although I can't see why you haven't done this before...

Xen · 12-03-2004, 02:50 PM

Thanks, I deleted them now. Now the only pics that are there are my work.
