Description latest in a long line

I was a bit worried about this one but seems to've been relatively unfounded, I think. I've worked out that this process is not for the faint-hearted; there were a lot of points during this painting where I just thought; nope, this ain't working . . . But I knew that all the others had gotten through that stage fine, so 'twas all good. A bit of different texture helped ease the monotony, too, so woo! to that.

I took a screencap so I'll put the video up tomorrow (I need sleep now). Enjoy!

EDIT. Video's up . Pity about the music, but anyways... Perhaps I shouldn't've used the album version.
You get the point without it.

If you'd like to make a DD suggestion, note the [appropriate GM ] for the deviation category.

Seems a bit less detailed than your last couple of these, but of course I don't blame you, this is probably the hardest too. I love the little buggy fingers you stuck onto the sides of his left hand. The one thing I would change is maybe to give him a visible infested face like the SC1 portrait, but w/e. I also like the way the bayonet is stained.

Mr--Jack In reply to masterofhobbiton [2009-02-18 21:34:36 +0000 UTC]

yeah, the face defeated me for now; didn't work quite the way I'd wanted to, but it's only their portrait that has it, all the other art I've seen has either got the faceplate closed or completely smothered.

Thanks. (and I think I traded a little bit of detail (though not a dramatic amount) for the extra 3 or 4 hours I didn't spend on this one over the Hydra piece...)

Really infected, I can even feel strain in zerg's tendon on marine armor.

SoloAlien In reply to Mr--Jack [2009-02-19 23:24:52 +0000 UTC]

Yep... I think so too.
But they works greatly when used as "antiACV-antiMarines mines" near abandoned resources or as pinpoint landing troops on the opponents base backyard

I dislike the lack of face. Infested Terrans of old kept their faces.

I really like how the infestation relates to his outer shell; There are very few places it has actually broken through the armor, and the broken pieces around the crotch look really cool. I'm going to assume this is one of the new-age infesteds, and not the old-school chemical bombs of SC1. I absolutely enjoy the texturing on this piece.

I agree with everyone else who said you should work for Blizzard.

Mr--Jack In reply to tredemptation [2009-02-18 21:30:09 +0000 UTC]

I tried a couple of times to get a face going but I couldn't do it without it just looking . . . silly.

Thanks I had fun working out the way it stretched itself across the marine. And sort of, yeah, since the old infesteds didn't have guns I don't think, but it's also pretty similar to Samwise's original concept art from then so I suppose they've not changed much since then.

Great job.

Oh man, I didn't play far enough to know those even existed, so it is a total surprise for me, and you made the thing look very... disturbing. Does it have a face? There seem to be some folds in there that resemble something, but it is still very alien.

Great job!

Mr--Jack In reply to Anton42 [2009-02-18 21:35:51 +0000 UTC]

They sort of have faces in the game, and I was sort of aiming for one; if it looks like to can make one out, then Yes! it does.. hehe.

BlightedSkiez In reply to Armuel [2009-03-16 18:41:20 +0000 UTC]

that's because starcraft was originally designed to be a warhammer game until warhammer pulled out, blizzards development team continued making it, they just changed the tyranids to zergs, the eldar to protoss and space marines to terrans.

Mr--Jack In reply to BlightedSkiez [2009-03-29 02:16:35 +0000 UTC]

I'm pretty sure the whole business is a bit muddled in hearsay and whatnot but the warhammer game they were actually working on was what they turned into warcraft, it had nothing to do with SC.
They were at one point also going to do a straight warcraft-in-space game, and there was even talk of the sci-fi rts being a part of the Star Wars franchise, but that's not where SC it came from.
