  Once I heard the vehicle&apos;s name at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luz_aAlW9cs&amp;t=324">5:24</a> I couldn&apos;t stop thinking of how silly something like &quot;WE HAVE TO LEAVE, GET IN THE MONKEY!&quot; sounds

  I love how these creatures have some convergent evolution, but aren’t just 1:1 with earth animals. Now that’s how you do aliens!

  Please do a vid on the Eternal Cylinder, it&apos;s a game with some of the strangest fictional aliens I have ever seen!

  What a seriously cool project. The art is by far the most photorealistic I&apos;ve seen in speculative biology, and I cant imagine the hours that went into this. Curious Archive plays such a key role in showcasing projects like this to the right audience. I really wanna see this project through.

  I really like how all the vehicles have their name emblazoned upon them, in an stylized manner. Naming them after Earth species, given that they were designed to traverse alien planets, has a nice thematic logic to it :D

  Wait, how do the “warning colors” work if most of the creatures on this planet use sonar to see?

  This makes me really want a live-action series based on this project.

  There’s a wonderful atmosphere to every one of the images. Yet another great addition to the archive!

  You can really feel the barlowe influence in this project, such wonderful designs

  I can’t get over how phenomenal this art looks. Particularly the textures on the skin of these exotic life forms.

  As an art project, this is phenomenal. As a biologically probable and realistic ecosystem? It’s…not the worst. Definitely not the best, but not terrible.

  I would love to see a video on Pikmin creatures. That series was what I think first introduced me to the idea of speculative evolution. In pikmin 2 Olimar even catalogs the creatures he finds and writes about what roles they play in the environment.
