Wait wait wait. Before you think "but who is this bizarrely handsome man in an archon suit?" Let me tell you, this is interactive fan art! First cover up the left side of the face and hopefully you will recognise that nerd. Then cover up the right side, and if i'm good, "baneling nest!" will spring to mind. Just so you know, this is definitely one of the stupidest things I've ever drawn. Hey also, I got twitter! even though I don't understand it, come be my friend: http://twitter.com/kim_dee

Wow man that is pretty damn good, at first I thought it was like a complete morph of the tasteless and artosis, but half and half is amazing.
Holy shit... amazing job, man.
WOW! Nice work man! Looks bizarre and awesome at the same time!
tl members never cease to amaze me
By the great micro of Boxer, they should of sent a poet. I'am overwhelmed by the sheer legendary nature of this this ...epic piece of art. Good job.
Wow this is amazing! Great work.

Not to derail, but this is an incredibly epic quote that I am going to start using! Also, fricken AMAZING artwork, I also checked out your site, you have a lot of talent. Have you worked as a concept artist for any video games?

Dude epic. Edit: Seriously epic. Especially when you actually put your hand over and cover each side of the face. It looks just like them, but when you look at it just normally the difference is so subtle.
So awesome. I love how the face are halves of tasteless and artosis.
Can already hear the synchronized "OH MY GOD"!
HOLY Guacamole. There should be a TLer's Art subforum for all these gems we keep on seeing from people. Would be a good place to see how "imba" people can get with their passion.

Nice!!
This is SO impressive. Really amazing piece of work here !
What the fuck did you do with my mind.
Wow. So much gold on TL lately. To admins, you need a larger "featured" bar on the frontpage for all these good threads.
Its really hard to notice when you're looking at the whole picture, but it is immediately apparent when you cover either side. Amazing.
ROFL, at first I couldn't really tell because its so blended together so well!
haha at first i was kinda like ok thats not artosis or tasteless but then realized quickly it was a mixture, amazing job really :D

OMG that's awesome!!!! had the same thought process as morrow.
That's really damn impressive, good job! O_O
I just finished watching Inception and this picture blew my mind even more!
haha tweet this back to tastosis im sure they will get a kick out of it. so awesome!!
this is so awesome! hope tasteless and artosis see this. good job
Wow, why so handsome? Took me a while to realize that they are both in the picture. Amazing work
Holy moly, this is amazing!
To say in the least, my mind was blown. This is completely and totally awesome.
That's so amazing! Keep making these please!
This is amazing. Great work.
artosis and tasteless would make a beautiful esport baby together.
brb im busy i m just picking my jaw up from the floor
This is wonderful. I'd like to know what Tasteless and Artosis think of it .
hahaha wow a baby of tastosis is handsome.. never expected that!
Hahahahahaha that's awesome.
It is surprising how good the 2 halves of the face go together,can't even really see the divide until you look at each half at a time.
sick. I was looking at the picture before reading your text and I was thinking to myself that it looked like a cross between tasteless and artosis, but I couldn't quite figure out why it looked like both of them but neither one in particular.
before reading your post, I looked at the picture and saw Artosis. I wondered why it didnt totally look like him but then I read your post then I was like... BEASSSSTTTTTTTTTT... idk how you came up with that but that is talent man. TALENT!
You sire are totally imbalanced and I thank to got they haven't found you with the nerfbat yet so I could see this amazing piece of art.

LOL Holy fucking shit, that's badass!
Nice love it, great idea with the morphing. keep it up
When I opened the thread I misread the title as "tasteless fanart", and though to myself, that it was very nicely painted, but didn't look very much like Tasteless. Then you blew my mind. Incredible.
ahmagad! this is awesome. I just went back and did it again, mind=blown
"The merging is complete!"
Wow thats amazing hahaha at first i just thought it was tasteless until i read the text, thats so clever!
As before...
Holy shit... That is AMAZING. P.S. I'm billing you for the clean-up of my exploded brain.

omg awesome ! at first i thought it was me, then i thought it was tasteless, then i saw my mole, then i realized.... amazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzing.
Haha very nice! Wish I could paint like that :<
sick man.. haha awesome job :D
Holy sh-, first I was like "oh lol", but then I covered up half of the faces as described, and then I shat myself. So impressive!
Oh wow, this is awesome. If I could draw anything close to this, I'd be a happy man.

Goddamn. Without putting your hand over the requisite side, it looks like one being. But with a hand over a side, it looks EXACTLY like tasteless or artosis.
Vinn's a great artist, Maul has sick photoshop skills too.

Guys which part is Tasteless? I really can't distinguish... the two part look almost identical to me.

So does that make Day9 and djWheat the Casting Dark Archon? EDIT: THOUGHTS IN CHAOS
This is not fair, I can't give this blog more than 5 stars.
I wish we could report threads for being awesome, because this definitely deserves it.
Wow thats awesome. Tastosis!

That image was so funny. But damn, the OP's image just blew me away with how good it is.
Knights of Columbus thats amazing..
Looking forward to the Day9 fanart
my mind EXPLODED when i actually covered up the face! just brilliant!
It's the mighty..... ARTOSTLESS!!!
I think the best part of it all is that despite the massive difference which covered -- while uncovered it looks normal at first glance!

That was awesome! Great Job. I could def see the two faces.
Wow thats trippy as, nice work man this is gold
Very cool, your work is pretty amazing. Took me a few seconds before I went Tastosis has been merged! I am looking forward to anymore you might do.
Wow that's friggin' insane, nice work!
My brain just exploded from the sheer level of awesomeness. This is exactly how their baby would turn out.
Holy shit. LOL First I thought it was just literally "tastosis" with their traits combined... but half and half works too... You are pro...
Wow that is incredible, tl needs an art forum because there's been a lot of good stuff lately.
that interactive art thing got me, it's awesome!!!!
oh my god. you're a genius.
Haha saw this a little while ago, but forgot to post my appreciation. You're one heck of an artist.
my mind was blown when I put my hand to cover 1/2 the face
Honestly wow. I had the same realization as morrow when I was like, "who?" then "what it's both!" I thought you had used software to merge the two faces or something hahaha. Amazing.
This art is so sick. It really does look like them. The caster archon!

this just makes me wonder how asymmetrical people's faces are
2 thumbs way up! Good work man!
This is ridiculous... in a very good way. I don't play Protoss, so it took me a few seconds to get why an Archon was used.
My mind is completely blown.
That's straight up awesome man. They're so handsome.
oh my god my brain piece just exploded. This is really awesome, I hope you do more!! I have really high appreciation for art and music (which I guess is art), it's too bad I can't make any myself haha
On November 13 2010 04:32 intrigue wrote: this just makes me wonder how asymmetrical people's faces are
Supposedly the more symmetrical a persons face is the more beautiful or handsome they are. This art just destroyed that theory.
OH WOW This is absolutely AWESOME. Well done, definitely deserves a place in the spotlight
On November 13 2010 04:32 intrigue wrote: this just makes me wonder how asymmetrical people's faces are
They're pretty asymmetrical. We did a thing in high school where you took a picture of half your face and then flipped it over. The side of your face on your dominant hand is much fatter than the other, so when you do the mirror you get one really fat face and one really skinny one.
Wow dude, fantastic. How could something so asymmetrical be so handsome?
That's so cool. Really good work!
wow, amazing work. at first i wasn't sure who this was. and then: aaaaaahhhh :D
Legendary rendering of the casting archon
wow so good. make more please
The casting archon! That is so awesome! Wow, i'm - speechless! Wow!

How the hell are you still only a drone at this point? Second the day9wheat dark archon for your next project!
so awesome man! I hope they show this on the GSL stream tomorrow, so a million people will see it

Amazing art! My mind was blown and I sent it to about 12 friends to show them how awesome some people in the Starcraft community are. <3
that is so awesome I must say. Whoever made this is a genius.
This is brilliant! Thanks for sharing :D

what I want to know is... Who Are Those Two People Who Didn't Rate This Blog Post A 5!?!?!
Artosis looks a bit cooler than he should, but Nick is spot on

Let's all grab our eTorches and ePitchforks and hunt them down!
Wow that is really really awesome. Keep up the work!
Not to be a hater, but I wouldn't have realized that's Artosis if someone didn't tell me. The nose, cheek/jaw bone line, and chin don't look correct. The Tasteless half, however, was very convincing.
very good! love your work keep them coming!

I thought the exact opposite. The only thing I thought that really identified Tasteless was his Widow's Peak. Otherwise, at a glance, the whole picture reminds me much more of Artosis than Tasteless. Still the whole thing is great!
Question: If Tasteless and Day9 merge into a casting archon, is that incest?
On November 13 2010 21:19 Kagami-sama wrote: Question: If Tasteless and Day9 merge into a casting archon, is that incest?
they are archons in themselves so they cant merge.
Oh wow, that's fantastic :D
You got some real talent! Go you! 5/5
You know you've ascended high into the casting heavens when half-art is made of you. Nice work!

Or they can and can produce some sort of super archon that collapses stars.
Wow man, that's really good! That's pretty awesome how you can cover each side of the face to get each half of Tastosis!
Oh wow. The right side made me say "that's my nerd!" The left side made me say "IMBA, IMBA WORLD!"
Thats.... very subtle. The combination feels very much like a true Archon!

Incredble art. I hope you had a smile while creating this peice.
Holy balls. What the hell...
vinn, you deserve a star for this and the john fanart.
E-P-I-C Tasteosis!!! that is some sick drawing!!!
I am staring at this artwork in transfixed blank devotion, this is what a SC2 caster deity looks like! Awesome job. =)
That is such an impressive work of art. I'm amazed.
