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.

If you look closely at the pipes, and compare them to the multiple views of the alien gun, you will find the similarities are entirely the result of viewing angle. Neither one resembles a pelvis in 3d space.

For that matter, the alien gun's *actual* shape is nothing like the pipes, it being a wrap around backpack/arm deal, as opposed to miniature bagpipes. There are aesthetic similarities, but nothing structural.
