K'Kree head issues

Cool beans, I haven't spent a lot of time with K'kree. Now though I have to wonder why they have such posture.

Because it's biologically plausible, while the upright torso is implausible, as it would require a 75°+ bend in the spine.

The skeletal picture in the original Alien Module for them shows a long curve, concealed somewhat by that pad of fatty tissue above the middle limbs (front legs). The cover picture shows a Bodyguard with vertical torso, but he's half-sitting so the rear half of his spine is not horizontal.

Aye, this is the problem I've had since I started this, no two images of the K'Kree are the same depending on how much attention the artist has payed to what has been done before. I've sort of developed an average really, emphasising my personal favourite bits.
I believe the general thinking with the K'Kree is that they developed from a six-legged creature and the forelegs and head have gradually lifted.

Since the K'Kree are rarely used in a game anyway, I say they deserve a re-boot of some kind. Keep going with your efforts, Scarecrow.
