:Hmm, it doesn't look that different to me, overall. What do you mean about the "tail tip thing"?

:As for the arms, not sure I understood what you meant. They are further back here than on our model, but that matches the trailer model, doesn't it? --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 01:41, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

::I mean the upper arms. In the trailer, the arms are mounted to the body. In this pic, they're mounted to the tail thing. --[[User:Bobbysoon|Bobbysoon]] 03:00, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

:::Oh, I see. Interesting. That doesn't look too bad, in Mullins' painting. Looking again at the other reference pics, are we sure that the original model didn't actually have the arms mounted that far back? Since we can see that the <u>cannons</u> (or forearms) are mounted further back on the original, and our model has a longer "body" piece than the original, might the arms not actually be attached behind the body on the original? That being said, Mullins seems to have the arms mounted on the tail at the very top, and they're pretty clearly lower on the trailer ID. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 14:30, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

::::The arms appear to me to be mounted into mid-torso in the trailer, judging by later frames of the clip with it advancing straight at you, but it's hard to tell.
::::Consider also that much else in the game has changed from what's seen in the trailer to final release.
::::Basically, I'm hoping for a compromise which would allow us to implement specifically the tail as arm-base design.
