Where is the missing Skulk from the broken capsule, I think it's above the fan if you look at the miss-shodowed fan blade.

    Obviously I was never too good at Where's Waldo.
    Can't see any secrets. Not even the cloaked skulk.

    Big rock on the left, at the foot of it where the part sticking out is closest to the drill, there is a half dark silloute of a dog like figure faceing away from the drill as if going towards the dark area in the bottom left.
    The shape continues downwards with what looks like it's legs that are less obvoius. To describe what to look for, its like looking down the road on a hot sunny day and seeing that weard haze.

    I noticed that, but I am not sure that is a cloaked skulk. It has the wrong shape, and could just as easily be the artistic style of a not very important part of the concept art.

    I'm sure UWE wouldn't mind popping in and confirming some of these if they are true... at least the older ones

    Though I high doubt it, I think you're just imagining things

    well, if you look at the marine touching the capsule, it almost make the skulk look bigger then the marine, i wonder how that thing could be stealthy, or maybe it becomes into an onos, or the artist made a mistake...too many "what if"s and "maybe"s in this thread.

    I think in the second one, The Hive... It's a case of spot the cloaked egg??
    I think the circular ring in the water is one of those eggs reflected in the hives side...
    But then again the image in the hive looks to be from behind the marines as if the vision was from that floating thing that appears to be looking at them from the back rather than a reflection. so the ring in the water is nothing?

    That "egg in the water" looks more like the shadow of the Nymph floating above it though...
