Love your depiction of Kerrigan, very old school infestation, shame Blizzard decided to make her pretty.

What's up with the armour she's got on tho?

Thank you very much for the comment on this classic piece! ^^Β 
I'm glad you like it.

You might not know it but this is the "Kerrigan" version from "Brood War", an old STARCRAFT expansion. As a matter of fact, this is how she looked in the mission briefings... I took the picture right from the game's avatar icon.

Here, I guess I've found it:

This is the STARCRAFT 1 version of her. Β ^___^

Ooooooh yes! I see it now! I do remember that piece below her neck in the little avatar from Starcraft now I see it again but damn, that's a long time ago. I do personally prefer her design from back then, especially her Brood War model on the campaign selection screen.Β 
I do like the body design they settled on for her but they cleaned up her face too much and made her hair waaaaaaaaaaaaay too long.

Yeah, the new design is more... "Alien"... H.R.Giger style. Β  Β

The user campaign was just a collection of maps for the game. The maps involved our own sound files and own designs... unfortunately, all files have been destroyed in a PC accident. We lost everything... only this artwork and some MIDI files remain.

Yeah, a major pain in the a**... but well. We still have the artwork, some music files and good memories.
AND who knows... maybe we're going to create something new in time. ^^

Hah! Glad to meet another fan of StarCraft, best RTS ever (and also my personal The Best God Damn Game Ever Made).

Let me boast a bit and say, that I am an amateur campaign maker too - I've made six campaigns (the last one, however, is still not complete - lacks two last missions) of my own. I would make myself such poster, after viewing this one... if not my complete lack of drawing skills.

ReptileCynrik In reply to Bazil3282 [2011-06-03 08:18:10 +0000 UTC]

^^ Thanks very much for the comment.
Sadly, our campaigns were all lost during a file-accident... We lost everything... 30 missions, voice samples and a lot of music.

Fortunately, I still got the SCORE --> [link]

Bazil3282 In reply to ReptileCynrik [2012-07-07 01:21:54 +0000 UTC]

Hey - if you still play StarCraft, would you test the campaigns of my own?

They were never translated from my native language (Polish, that is) to English, but if you fancy testing them, I will translate it.

I would translate it to German for you, but firstly, I speak German only on basic level, and secondarily, English is more "international" unfortunately, so translating campaigns to that language would mean more people could understand its plot.

I must warn you, that I didn't make speeches of my own (although I could - with my skill to "mimic" any quote, any actor) nor the score... Hell, you composed whole that score on your own?

I don't play STARCRAFT anymore, sorry.
Don't have the game installed anymore, either.

I like this piece. I think it would do good in a graphic novel or comic book

One thing that kind of seems awkward is that Infested Kerrigan has armor on! She doesn't have any armor on I thought...but ah well. Still all cool.

The heroes are called Patrick and Chris Crimson (from left) - then, we have James Raynor and then Admund Duke. The guy on the very right side is Fenix!

Ooh, this is a very nice SC image. Funny how you have used the Goliath face and Wraith face on those marines. Not to mention the stat of the marine armor is true to the game. Indeed a plus. I like the protoss, and ofcourse the kerrigan and Duran. Duran being my favorite SC character. Critics... yes well there is not much, but there are some details.
The battlecrucier front is not quite the way its supposed to be. You can look at referance images of the unit [link] and you can find a nice wallpaper with the front from in game [link] (With kerrigan and duran too, but you seem to have done them quite nicelly)
Other than that you have forgot the neato detail on the hydra, the dual jaws. When you play the game and watch the hunter-killer and the hydra (and lurker) animation image you can see that they have the normal jaw, but also a couple of other jaws that are split in half. This is what makes the Hydra a cool unit. The neck and head plating however is quite nice.
The protoss, perfect Taken form the protoss victory screen I see. Nice colors on the picture. A defenite from me

Hello and maaaaaaaaany thankzzz to this great comment! I always say: YOU NEVER LEARN ENOUGH!

In fact, I really like such detailed and perfect critique from a great artist like you are!! In your case I KNOW, that you are not just "talking" - but you KNOW and SEE things, which others don't.

You are right about my little mistakes... and wanna know what? I NEVER PLAYED OR SAW THE GAME! Hehehehehe...
Well, my brother (a great "Starcrafter") provided me with pics and screenshots... but I didn't look carefully, I guess.

Hmm.... doing this pic was indeed fun! Maybe (with my actual skills), I should draw a new pic of our own campaign "Crimson Quest"... we'll se!

Thankies again and see ya
