In Response To: Do the Alien Pipes/Weapon resemble a pelvis bone? (VikingBoyBilly)

: I took this screenshot from one of AlienThink' art lesson videos because I
: couldn't help but be reminded of the alien pipes and/or alien weapon.

:

: Look at the side view of the pelvis bone at the bottom. Is this where the
: Bungie artist(s) got the design from? Or were Jjarro (and the pfhor after
: appropriating their technology) making these devices out of human pelvis
: bones? Considering the semi-canon theory that Jjarro are human...
: yikes.

I guess, going by that theory, that the leg bone makes up the actual pipes and mouthpiece of the instrument. If it was a trombone (ha ha), the fibula would be where the slider would go.

I thought the pipes were made of brass like the Ground Floor German said. (alloy-reinforced bone perhaps?)
