Naughty you!





Thanks Solentis, the Concept Art is great!

Woo, naked sophons, I love them.

Oh so clumsy looking with just that big head on a frail body! It fits perfectly.

Thats correct, they have small mandibles. They do not eat that much, according to their feeble nature. For the skull, that's correct too. They are not human, so their skull can have various shapes like we got various faces. Social funtion inside. Additionaly, Sophon's sometime modify their exoskeletton like some human wear piercing and tatoos.



Take a look:

You won an exclusive unrevealed concept board of naked sophons researh:

WOW! Now that explains everything!

Yeah, thats possible. I understood what you said about the difference in the skull of the Sophons. But think of it this way: if we analyze a human skull, we can see that the differences are not large. Of course there are differences, but they are minimal. Overall, the skull of all humans are very similar. What distinguishes one human face from another is skin color, fat face and facial hair color.



But I understand what you mean. And I believe that the Sophons maybe feed like the ants.

Yeah, I was thinking of the mandibles of ants when i saw one of these Sophon Forum-Avatars

I think they eat like Insects - with small mandibles (or however it's called) or an small mouth?

Hey, I remember reading this post on Facebook! It was a comment on the image of a Craver without a helmet.



EDIT: Wait...since the heads of the Sophons are exoskeletons, why the "cranial structure" of them differs from a Sophon to another? And what about the mouths of the Sophons? How they manage to feed themselves with that things in the place of their mouths?

Let me just extract an old post i let on the FB Endless space wall.

"For the Sophon case, it's a little bit... well, you need some explanations. In fact, her helmets are some kind of exoskeletons. If I take it off, you will probably see underneath her skin. Quite disturbing."



According to the original design made by Chris of course.

Disturbing thought, there's the door, I'll get my coat :P

I'm still struggling to get the pic of boiled Sophons out of my head

Maybe they will be like Dr. Zoidberg.............



Disturbing thought, there's the door, I'll get my coat :P

any plans to unveil them? perhaps for a sequel if that's deemed profitable for future.



they are portrayed as smart but the mask creates allure to their appearance like Predator franchise.



are they pretty or ugly underneath? even their little ones wear mask..png" alt="smiley: " title="" />

Well I never came across this post - i just made up a theory



What did I win Solentis?



Marthnn: Lobsters? Better stop my brain from thinking of boiled Sophons

So my dream was true! Awesome! +1 for exoskeleton Sophons! At least the head...

They are squishy inside, and according to the Cravers I met, just as delicious as lobsters (with added brain delicacy).

And the winner is... Tredecim.

What, you mean this is a mask/helmet, and not their real physiological body? Like an exoskeleton around their head, protecting their precious precious thinking organ, the brain? What a deception, I was sure Sophons had evolved that way.

BTT: there is this profile pic, with the Sophon, smoking a cig or something - do they smoke through their helmets/masks, or is the "helmet/mask" their face?

I imagine them being kinda cute, just like they are with their masks on.
