So my mom saved one Christmas present for last and said it would be hands down the coolest one I got this year. She couldn't have been more right, as you can see. It's a painting of the Hyperion accompanied by a summary and history of the Hyperion.
Painting was done by Rebekah Campbell, http://www.rcportraits.net.
UPDATE: The artist did a painting of Jim Raynor with a video showing the process from beginning to end. Pretty amazing video, you can see it on her homepage. I believe she has plans to do something similar with Kerrigan.

That looks awesome dude.
|
Your mom is a boss!
|
OMFG what an epic present! Your Mum is the coolest in the world! Beats me getting an ipad 2 for xmas even though Im loving my ipad <3<3.
|
Such a sick picture. And what a epic mom
|
Yo Doc are you guys gonna trade Rondo? 
Anyways, sick picture, I think I might get something like it as well...
|
I'm a bit slow hehe. I thought the text was on the back of the painting, my bad. But anyway, incredibly cool christmas-gift!
|
I wouldn't hang this into my room. Jaedong, yes. MvP, or White-Ra, maybe. I would have their pictures in my room. But this stupid ship would just remind me of the horrible story that SC2 has. The boring characters that you cannot sympathize with.
Congrats anyways. ^^
|
|
that's pretty sweet, bro.
|
uhh brother????? lol
nice gift, and you've got quite an accepting family...mine on the other hand blames everything bad in my life on video games rather than any other possibilities...like...my depression maybe? lol
anyway awesome mom (maybe awesome dad too idk) :D:D:D
edit: also my mom did get me socks with a ton of other stuff ofc
|
its beautiful... you've been good this year.
|
Well that's pretty awesome
|
This should get a nice spot over the fire place. If you dont have a fire place, now is a good time to get one.
|
Still waiting for those better pictures man

Haha I was just waiting to hang it up above my comp which will be tonight.
|
I'm so jelly, honestly that is so cool.
Congratulations on both having cool parents and for getting an awesome present.
|
Not gonna lie, thats fucking awesome... Wish i had one.
|
I have no place for such an item since I don't have a mancave. But if I did I would love that painting Really cool gift from a mother!
|
That's flippin' awesome! Very jelly.
|
To whoever did the spotlight blurb: I stand by socks as being one of the best gifts in the world. Fuck, I'm wearing some sweet-ass socks right now. Can't wait to break them in at work.
Ballin' battlecruiser, though.
|

i need something for my room anyways soooo.. probably a good advertisement what you did there
|
|
I really like this picture! Very amazing that your mom got you that because mine doesn't even touch a computer, haha.

@.@;; thats amazing, your mom is pretty cool
|
woahhhh that painting is sick!
|
wow so sick..instant jealousy
|
I am officially the most jealous person you could meet right now.
And this thread is also among the best ads for the artist you could ask for . I really think it is amazing that your mom would privately commission a painter to do that for you. I'm jelly as shit, because I know my mom would never even consider doing that for me .
|
That is sick. Give your mom a high five from me!
|
That is an awesome painting. I am jealous.

Sounds like someone didn't get a specially commissioned BC for Christmas 
Looks good, grats.
|
|
OMG I'm so jealous. Your life is too good.
|
That is fully the most amazing gift I've seen, nice to see it has a place of pride :D
|
Updated the OP, check out the artist's website you can see a video of her doing a painting of Jim Raynor (the SC2 startup screen). Pretty sweet!
