Description "Templars and...Templars"
October 23rd, 2010
Pencil and pen




Yes, I did it.

Okay, so anyone who knows that I like Starcraft and medieval history may not be suprised at this. Because, what can I say? I couldn't resist. It was rather inevitable.

(from left to right: Godfrey, Brian de Bois-Guilbert, Protoss Dark Templar Zeratul, and Protoss High Templar Tassadar)

Also, this picture was suprisingly quickly done. I'll often have an idea for something and then finish/work on it WAY later. But this one I drew and finished the same day I had thought of it. So yeah. I'm just a sucker for my beloved Templars (of both species. )



Godfrey belongs to Nathan Sadasivan
Bois-Guilbert belongs to Sir Walter Scott
The Protoss belong to Starcraft and Blizzard

oh dear god, you did something I have always been thinking in my mind.

well, the terrans have the iguenity and the courage for the strong, but the protoss have pisonics and the control of the void on their defense. XD

I was laughing at Brian de Bois-Guilbert's comment and Godfrey's look of anger lolz.

The protoss seemed more technologically advanced and more powerful than standard templars lolz, and they are quite the bling wearers, all having ornaments of gold and green.

Of course, we have Protoss Dark Templar Zeratul banishing his trusty green psi-sword of DOOM, and Protoss High Templar Tassadar generating something like a...Psionic ball of energy? (Pisonic storm anyone?)...and their faces are like, "choose your next words carefully terran, they may be your last..." or something like that.

Don't get me started on the archons and dark archons...those were overkill when the protoss brings in the big guns.

Well, different races = different cultures lolz, and this shows the difference XD

Hahahahh, why thank you!

"and their faces are like, "choose your next words carefully terran, they may be your last..."

I was totally thinking about putting that in there, but then I decided the simplicity of the "Real" Templar's comment might just be more amusing. And besides, I think the Protoss' eyes convey enough contempt in them for people to get that general idea. But hey, I think the Protoss are also a rather generous lot, rather than burning the impudent Terrans with a blaze of psionic glory, I think they'd be more like, "Yeah, whatever, silly human..."

victortky In reply to Theophilia [2010-12-10 01:43:56 +0000 UTC]

hehe, what about the human marines and the terran marines? XD

yeah, because that is pretty much what their faces are like.

agreed. true, they convey their expressions through their eyes.

although the latter does make sense, but I doubt most protoss wil say that

Man, I love the comparison. I'd love it even more if you through in the Black Templars from Warhammer 40k, xD

Just seeing the three groups next to one another would make the picture for me.

Hahahahh, thanks! I've never played Warhammer, but I have seen pictures of their Templars (though, personally they look more like Teutonic-knights-meets-Starcraft-Marines, more than Templars to me. ).

Actually, the Black Templars seem to remind me more of the Hospitaller, but that's just me. ^^

Love the Expressions on the Human Templars, anyways.

Good artwork!

OMLG!!!! YOU ACTUALLY DID IT!! XD I mean knowing you as a Starcraft fan, I was wondering when you were gonna pull this off. XD

But um... I wouldn't be so quick to call Protoss amateurs... not even that Spanish steel is gonna protect ya from a Protoss psi blade (and a warp one at that). >_>;;;

Throw in the Psionic Storm and... *gulps* >_<;;

Don't even get me started on the merging. Now THAT is just overkill! D:

Hahahah, oh I kow. Atually, when I first thought of this I was hard-pressed to decide who I would give that line to. On the one hand, it would have been funny for the Protoss to say it because they'll a freaking ancient race and the tiny Terrans are puny and weak in comparison. On the other hand, I like the Knights Templar. And I'm human. So I'm somehwat biased. And the Knights Templar would have been the ones who the name originiated with. So....the Protoss are amateurs.

This is the truth.

Knights Templar: We've been around longer than you have!
Protoss: We each are centuries old and our templar order has lasted for generations.
Knights Templar: Well, we have awesome swords!
Protoss: Ah, but we have psionic blades!
Knights: We have uber-sweet capes!
Protoss: As do we.
Knights: Well....well...AHA!!! WE HAVE MANLY BEARDS!!! IN YOUR FACE!!!
Protoss: ........ touche.

never thought I'd see this one. I've been thinking of the connection of the real templars with the protoss templars since basically protoss is like a catholic religious race. But then again, those men doesn't know who they're up with. hahaha! Psionic storm anyone?
