Only one way to know.

Atrash the Squidmonger Quote: EDIT: Also, turns out I'm not the lobster anatomy expert I thought I was. I skimped this guy a pair of legs... sweatdrop And does he get cool antennae and mandibles and all?
Now with increased anatomical accuracy! sweatdrop
EDIT: He looks decidedly more lobster-like, thanks to that. Unfortunately, the lobsterness (New word? :O) is pulling a lot of focus from the fact that he's a boat. I'm working on that, now; I've considered adding a name scribbled on the side, though I don't know what to 'name' it. Any thoughts?

Some stereotypical otherwise fitting names for boats: Bad News Lobstittude Godfather/Codfather Hmm... well, if he does start out flipped over (as an open boat, either in the scenario I described before, or just sitting there like a normal boat until aggro'd), that would help in identifying him (probably flipping over again, or sideways, if he was killed - maybe at other times too). Maybe give him a keel. Stick him next to some docks. Make oarlock-esque joints where his claws attach to his body (and especially if he ever rears up, and we see the open interior and the oars handles just hanging in there...).

Yeah, seems to me that the biggest problem is how we're seeing the boat - we're only seeing the angle that... Nobody ever sees. sweatdrop If he does rear up (or, as you suggested, flip over when he dies), the inside of the boat would probably be a giveaway on its own - which probably goes to show exactly what he needs to do when he dies. whee Other than that, I guess we're relying on context.
I did add the oarlock, but there's only one joint on which it would even be visible in that picture - and it just sorta makes his claw look disjointed (not that that's a bad thing). It's rust-coloured so that it doesn't distract too much (gray drew a lot of attention), but it still makes him look a little less natural (which, apparently, is the problem - I've been asking around, and the best reason I can find for why he doesn't look like a boat is "He looks too much like a lobster" xp ). Apparently, balancing the two is rough... sweatdrop
EDIT: I may add oarlocks to the rest of his legs, to see if that helps. Anything to make him look less critter-y...

He's shaped a bit oddly for a boat. It's not a shape you see a lot, compared to more canoe shapes for that size of boat.
Does he get a backstory (wait, shouldn't they all be she's since they're boats?) of being used by a lobster fisher?

I know, but I feel good asking. o3o *tries to upload* Here it is :3In its normal mode it is cutesy(I saw some cute Scarecrow item once, just not sure of the name) and its fighting mode, it uses scaredy cat while showing a rather fearsome form.

So, he's stuck in one place, and uses Fear on you every time you get close.
Most annoying enemy ever.
Combine that with him spawning some kind of Animated "crows" (just for the irony) to attack you if you do stay at-range, and I think you've got a pretty sound nuissance, there... sweatdrop

Not really what I thought of though, but that sounds nice. rofl I've imagine him as a progenitor for the other scarecrows in the area, and can move around. A valuable ally to those who are pro-Animated(the village with animated friends. o3o idea) and a strong boss for those who are anti-Animated. That idea you gave does sounds nice though. :3
