COLLECT ESSENCE!

Abathur looks so epic in this ^^

Also, is it just me or does Kaerrigan kinda look like the female wizard from Diablo? (I think its the way you did her face and hair XD)

Actually, I have found this work on battle.net, but now I can not find it.It seems blizzard changed their webs totally.Just a few pictures in the gallery of the SC II. Could you please upload a high resolution one.

Would it be possible to get a larger resolution of this piece uploaded for wallpaper use?

NorseChowder In reply to gungrave70 [2013-03-02 11:26:39 +0000 UTC]

Well, I would, if there was also wallpaper of it on battle.net that was a larger size. There isn't right now, so I don't have permission to release any higher resolution versions of this one just yet.

I saw this piece while watching the blizzcon on direct tv the other day, and I went like "Whoa, what a great kerrigan design, love the crazy zerg-dreadlocks, they should have gone with this vibe for the 3D model. I wonder who did this?"

And then, it pops out in deviantart!
Hey! I can tell you this "in person" now. Great design, love the crazy zerg-dreadlocks, they should have gone with this vibe for the 3D model.

Nice work, Kerrigan will be a zerg once again <3 does this ultralisk have any meaning for the story? or is it just some random ultra?

NorseChowder In reply to DendaReloaded [2011-10-25 21:08:27 +0000 UTC]

I just happen to like ultras, tbh....in the end, putting them in a painting with other Zerg and Kerrigan just makes sense and helps show epic scale.

can you give some lore information about HotS???

would be awesome <3

NorseChowder In reply to DendaReloaded [2011-10-26 16:49:16 +0000 UTC]

I only paint what Blizzard asks me to paint; I have no input in the process or information on the game to share, other than I can promise it'll be awesome.

ok, thx, hoping for more nice stuff!

I know you said you aren't involved in the production of the game, but can you say if the leaked ending from HotS was real? considering you are closer to Blizzard then the fan community is

Y, from what I've seen the game will be awesome! 20 missions only though...
