darkSpyro

EVERY TIME I SEE THIS IMAGE IN THE CORNER I GET MAD

HIS STUPID CLAWS DON'T MAKE SENSE
HIS RIGHT FRONT FOOT HAS 4 CLAWS AND HIS LEFT ONE HAS 3

AND SPYRO MUST BE IN PAIN FROM THAT POSITION rip his spine

cannot unsee. thanks thunderdragon14

It's not like he ever does that position in game anyway, he doesn't use his claws either.


an easier to see big picture

Actually they're not even turned backwards
What drugs was the illustrator on when he drew that artwork

spyro can have thumbs when he wants to

If that was the case he wouldn't drive cars with his palms
Wish I had an easy screenshot but everyone put him on the large car instead of the motorcycle which is easier to see in videos.

how do his front feet even work there wtf

i noticed that error like years ago

it always bothers me when i see that picture

i noticed the error when skylanders first surfaced too BUT GOD DOES IT ANNOY ME EVERY TIME I SEE IT
IT'S PROBABLY MY LEAST FAV CORNER PICTURE

why would you tell me this... this hurts me...

Spyro is the son of the original Spyro and Cinder, who were cousins, and that's why he has four claws on his right hand. Skylander Cinder is technically Spyro's mom, so if they ever have a kid they will have four toes on both hands, so it'll all even out.

Not to break the joke but that's the least possible canon. LoS all but didn't happen in this timeline, though Return of the Dragon King suggests that something happened for that to be a thing.

ugh

stupid spyros claws

look at them

so stupid

so ugly

so wrong...

i am offended

This image.

Breaking my heart since 2011.

whoever drew this piece of art didn't quite understand how anatomy worked.

It's the same company that has been doing it all these years,it is funny to see the SSA artworks with zero talent and suddenly they get really good. Spyro is one of the big examples.



It's clearly the same artist every time,but with it's pretty worrying he didn't know how to do 3d poses until the second game. It's even worse with a few others - Gill Grunt's placement in the artwork is screwy until the fourth iteration.


Doesn't even know how to lineart and the head is bigger than the limbs,bad proportions because the angle they wanted doesn't work, scaled like a Giant inside the frame, theeere we go.


Thank god the illustration company isn't the actual dev team. Activision loves some outsourcing.

i'm just gonna guestbook this because it's golden out of context

The best art is the hardest to understand. You just don't understand this great work of art that is this Spyro artwork.

scary

See! Four claws on the right hand, every time. It's canon!

That's his palm in the second quote. It's thick like a lizard's.

Moments like this that it'd be nice to not have a cloud covering on the floor of SC's select screen, there's an option to spin his model.

it looks like his thumb is growing out of his claw

maybe that's spyro's "lucky claw"
don't make fun of him about it he's sensitive

you know what annoys me even more
spyro's claws in the picture are purple

i never understood why spyro had yellow claws in-game, but white claws in artwork. and then just recently they gave him white claws in-game.

??????????

i think this was also a thing in TLoS but it's a lot more obvious in skylanders
why can't they decide

??????

It easier to just color everything the same or follow IRL animal anatomy. His wing claws are also sometimes yellow(or the yellowish orange from Skylanders) so why the heck can't his paws have yellow claws...? This is a fantasy series.

You can also see the aritst screwed up on his plates too, they just go all the way under his chin or they make that weird triangle shape that should've punctured his jugular at this point. Figure and ingame always stopped at the neck with a comfy curve.
