Starcraft 2: Zerg Roach Warren
Modeled by Trevor Jacobs & Phill Gonzales, final texture pass by Ted park!
Animated by Jay Hathaway

The Roach Warren is a very old building created during the very first art pass on Zerg Structures for Starcraft 2. The role of this building changed several times. Initially the building served as a Queen's Nest, later repurposed as an Ultralisk Cavern, and then repurposed again to things I can't recall anymore.

The main point being: the building design was intersting enough that we didn't want to throw it away. Eventually the role of the Roach Warren was decided upon and the building artwork finally had a purpose. The majority of the building was created by Trevor Jacobs in Zbrush. My contribution was increasing the polycounts on all the spike protrusions and making the roach head in the center front opening.
