    Default Jaguar "Ultra Vortek" graphics/statuary

    I was looking at "Ultra Vortek" the other day & noticed on the "Stoned Poseidon" level (where you first fight DredLoc IIRC) the background graphics are some interesting statuary, like from ancient Greece or something.

    Just wondering if anyone has some further knowledge on that particular artwork...does it actually exist somewhere, what does it represent, etc.

    I'm not sure if it directly references that level, but here is a link to the old Beyond Games site that has a "Making of UV" on it:

    Cool site! Too bad none of those pictures can expand (I get a Path Index error.)

    The screen that I'm asking about appears in the first 3 screenshots here:

    Sorry I cant find better/bigger pics!

    My wife says the statues depict general figures from the Underworld, & the large central figure (w the serpent's tail) is Neptune or Poseidon.
