Description
Starcraft 2 zerg unit . . .To begin with, I have to say I've no problem with the infestor at the moment, I just loved the defiler's look as well and thought I'd try to meld the two a little bitβso I've kept the weird bulbousness and the vomiting, but extended it a little to make it creepier, + added the feelers reminiscent of the defiler's claws . . .
About 2 hours, Sketchbook Pro and PS CS3.
Enjoy!

I'm curious, is concept art always this polished while the modelers/texturers are working on it, or is it only touched up to this level of detail once promotional artwork is needed?

i never got HOW YOU CAN MAKE ZERG LOOK SO AWESOME! how do you go about making it look more organic?

Lots of noodly details and texture, mostly
Thankyou!

just asking, do you know where to get reference for zerg anatomy? or is it just by skill and practice?

I did a bit of digging around on the net for original 3d renders and concepts to start with, but a fair bit of the detail is just from my head, with practise

ahh, I've been looking for references on deviantart, but there's not any frontal looks at a hydralisk or zerg, or even just some basic anatomical drawings. (Then again I may be asking for a bit much as they do seem hard to draw.) I might just try some guess work for now, and practice, lots of practice.

I know we released some more detailed illos a couple of years ago which are pretty handy

thanks, i found the hydralisk sketches. I thought the mandible thingys were always out at the sides, like a zergling.

In most art they always are anyway, but yeah they're designed so that at rest they can be folded in to the mouth (I don't know that that was how they were originally designed, though)

impressive design. but i like infesters very much the way they are. they look like what they should. there big and fat looking and waddle around.
is that mouth on the top for spewing out infested terrans?
π: 0 β©: 1
Something like that
(though I don't think they did that when I drew this)
π: 0 β©: 1
it does look like it would work well for that.

This alternative is awesome
Are you satisfied with Sketchbook Pro? I think about to purchase a copy...
π: 0 β©: 1
To be honest I haven't actually used it a lot lately, but I still highly recommend it as a program if you're just wanting to do sketching and linework

not bad

Cool, i think you should send this to Blizzard...much better design than it's new model (and old one as well
It's head reminds me of those very deep sea fish

Yeah I'm still pretty happy with this one, though I think I'm happy with the look of the infestor at the moment; I'm probably going to give that a go as well
Thanks!

Yeah I was wondering whether or not you'd have another go at the infestor since samwise created the "zerg reaver"
π: 0 β©: 0
vomiting, probably has a problem. how many mouths does it need?
π: 0 β©: 0
Definitely prefer this over the official infestor art. The infestor that Blizzard is using right now just looks more like some sort of demon that a proper Zerg, you managed to take a lot of the same elements but push it back in the right direction. Awesome

Cheers; I'm not sure if I'm gonna have another go at the infestor now that they've released its update, but we'll see... Can't wait to see it in-game, as to whether it fits or not..
Thanks!

I like that mouth on the back. I wish the new Infestor had it too.

you knoe i actualli prefer this design in the comin game then the infestor they got now this one looks so much more interesting an more fitting.. nice job Mr. JAck keep up the good work xD... im hoping to see all the zerg units xD..

I prefer much more this version than the official model of infestor.

I actually have an issue with the infestors at the moment. They just aren't menacing enough... I think this is much more awesome, and it doesn't look as cartoony and fake as before. I definitely think that blizzard needs a change in artists... *cough* you *cough*cough*
