/x/ - Paranormal

Sorry but that's an old picture, I remember seeing it in the old threads. And it's obviously fake…

>>31523

I have cut out the image and did a reverse image search, no similar pictures found:

Sorry for huge link… OP why didn't you save the picture instead of making a screenshot like a newfag?

The description said high quality you dip. Stop pushing this shit meme.

>4chan

>phoneposting

>still hung up on a confirmed hoax

The guys literally dumped their Discord logs to prove it was a hoax because the mods on halfchan were getting so pissy over it.

>>31518

This is one of the worst looking fake albums I've ever seen, OP. I know you're in desperate fox mulder mode, but stop wanting to believe so badly you look autistic.

>>31531

Unless the logs were made before or during the time 4chan went down, they don't prove anything.

There was another pic posted during the original happening. The background was confirmed as a stock photo but the ayy itself was not sourced.

Its head was shaped somewhat like a big toe. I remember the skin being a grayish yellow tone with a lightly scaled texture. The eyes looked very lifelike. I think I remember faint purple bags below the eyes. Its mouth/throat area was kind of soft looking, like a pug's cheek/mouth area. If you have this pic, please post it for analysis, again I repeat the ayy itself has not been sourced.

>>31775

Replying to myself, I found the image.

I can't upload from TOR so I must link. If someone can upload, it would be appreciate.

Analysis from member of that forum:

>Though the eye's look similar and therefore suggest a similar optical mechanism to human and other earth species eye's the view is not close enough for a definitive analysis even of such a shallow measure, there is no obvious nostril area but the many pits may indicate heat sensitive pit's similar to many reptile species on earth or they could also serve as pheromone sensory pit's.

>The cranial structure appears to have a seperate but very weak or recessed jaw but that is by no mean's definite and the upper lip analogue may show a vertical split as well as a more defined horizontal one which could mean the long line's or fold's leading to the pit's I associate with smell receptor's may also be either fold's related to this vertical split or even alternatively could they be auditory sensors in nature as there is no obvious ear analogue, could this creature if real have these as dedicated audio sensory receptors on the front of it's face above it's mouth (it's mouth may open on three axis, like some worm species bottom and two top side's).

>Long neck but no way to compare it's size or body proportion's.

>Apparent scaled skin similar to a reptile or indeed fish.

>The A shaped fold between the eye's could also be it's smell receptor if this is the case, we assume that since each of our senses have one main purpose, ear's to hear, nose to smell, eye's to see that of course we tend to project this model onto other species in our attempt to analyse and understand them.

>If real I would imagine it would have quite a different psychology to us, still it's face does seem to have personality though it does not look friendly just kind of serious.

>Not very pretty to our eye's obviously.

>If fake it is a cool mock up and very creative showing a very intelligent xeno awareness.

Even though the background has been sourced, the ayy has not.

Anyone know where it's from?

Go back to halfchan where you belong, faggot.

>>31788

if you look at the forehead you can see the scales are just a pattern someone added and they don't transition naturally, or even look similar to the ones on the neck.

>>31805

Yeah, I've noticed that too, but I suppose it could be an edit of the original image.

I have seen the following discrediting statements:

1. The background is a sourced stock image so therefore the ayy is fake.

2. Multiple variations of "it looks like someone photoshopped X feature" so therefore the ayy is fake.

3. "That ayy is all over reverse image search." I attempted a reverse image search but did not yield any results. I did not isolate the ayy from the background, maybe that had an impact. Can someone else attempt and confirm?

Looking at those eyes that appear so lifelike makes me think it could be a sculpture or a costume but the space between the eyes in relation to the overall proportions of the head make it hard for me to believe there's a human in there.

If it's a sculpture, there must be a very proud artist out there somewhere.

This entire ayy thing is most likely BS, but it seems unusual to me that this realistic looking ayy (compared to so many obvious fakes and stereotypical 'grey' designs) has only been debunked with incomplete logic but not concrete evidence, especially considering that this pic was published during peak interest.

Damn it, I screwed up the reference links, sorry.

Damn, found the source. It is sculpture and you guys were right about the texture being an overlay. It was also colorized to more closely match the original description.

Case closed on this one. Thanks for your notes.

First, I tried searching through cinematic alien databases (Farscape, Babylon 5, various movie, etc fansites and wikis with lots of pictures), but I noticed that most TV shows and movies tend to have exaggerated alien designs with tentacles on their heads, extra eyes, etc, and they aren't nearly as convincing in general.

I figured if it wasn't practical makeup effects, it must be a sculpture (or a fucking real alien) since clay sculpture is the only other medium I know of that is so effective for creating lifelike expressions.

I threw a few relevant keywords into google image search and flipped through a few pages until I found a match. I think "alien sculpture face" was the search string that found it.
