Hey guys,

I'd been thinking about how the Artosis pylon, a single pylon being the sole power-source for a number of Protoss building, makes for a really good image, and for a while had been trying find a way way to paint it that wasn't simply 'here is a Protoss base', when Torte De Lini, legend that he is, gave me the jumping point I needed. So here it is, a quick painting I did fusing LoTR with SC2:

[image loading]

I was thinking of sticking it on a t-shirt or something but since it's mostly exact replicas of building Blizzard probably wouldn't like that. Til next time!

One ring to bring the all and in the darkness bind them.

Get your quotes straight before putting it on a t-shirt

Sorry about my spelling, spell check doesn't do the black speech or mordor for some reason.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

I knew I'd make a mistake with the quote, though I thought I'd double checked it! Easy to correct though, least it's not "you got the Tengwar on the ring wrong"

That's a brilliant idea, will try modifying it and see how it looks

you should put a link to the video of the Artosis pylon from Nasl, as well as a video from the gsl in which tasteless refers to the Artosis pylon, as Artosis quietly cries.

So Artosis is secretly...The Dark Lord on his Dark Throne?
And into this Ring, he poured his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life?

haha, I love that idea, Artosis, being secretly the ultimate evil pours all his evil will into an Artosis pylon, which gets destroyed, leaving him as a nice guy with a lot of Starcraft knowledge, so he casts :D

These are the times I hate youtube, this is all I could find that actually showed an Artosis pylon in action:


but... here is Day9 explaining the concept (best Artosis pylon-related video I could find):

Thanks! I have it at a larger resolution, I think A5 size, but as I say I'm not sure Blizzard would be cool with it. Will be trying to redesign it
