Hi guys,
some days ago I decided to make smth quite exclusive. Basically its not exactly a wallpaper cause the current work resolution is 3000x2250. But because its so big its quite suitable for printing on a paper and possibly making a poster out of it. I thought that it will cool if I vector all models in it so the thingy could be used to be put on a t-shirt or a cup of coffee or smth. You see, after a lot of hours of vectorizing I started to question the point of the hole thing. The problem is that every model takes a lot of time to vector, the work as a process is extremely boring, but I cant possibly rush it cause it will look rubbish.
So here's the thing up to date: Be sure to click on it to see how big exactly this is
[image loading]

I want to ask for you opinion whether or not I must finish the thing and to be correct I want to know if some of you are going to use the image for smth or not. For now I would say the thingy is about 20% finished so there's a lot of work to be done still, I'm planning to add a lot of models in the same style... so...

[image loading]

Poll: Shall I complete this?
(Vote): Yes, it will look awesome
(Vote): No, spend your time or smth else, go out and have a beer
(Vote): I dont know

I probably wouldn't buy a shirt and wear it in public but I would want a poster

I have the models in color but I will start experimenting with them when I finish the composition.
But for now it will be black and white. The other 80% are a medic, tank, BC, wraith, SCV, Kerrygan, a bunch of zerg units, Raynor and Zeratul... Actually I'm not even close to the 20% now, 10% is more realistic

It would look really really cool if you finished it. I'm not sure how many people would use it though.

Yes, there will be a lot of units and I'm not going to mix them...
As for the program I'm using only PS, thou I'm pretty sure you could vector the models in Illustrator and extract them to PS for further edit, the results may be even better. Yes, I'm tracing the shape and and the outlines of the details in every image. http://www.melissaclifton.com/tutorial-vector.html
... no this is not completely how I'm doing my stuff but I try to follow closely those techniques

Definitely. When it is in its finished phase with flashy effects, and everything, I'm sure it will look amazing. Keep going!

I have update on this, check out the OP, lol. Apparently the zealot got legspeed
A couple of things you should expect from the completed work:

1. It will be in color
2. The background wont be white
3. The StarCraft logo will not look like that in the end, this is just to mark its there
4. I'm not going to use stock images, I mean I will, but will customize them a lot, like the zealot and the marine girl.
5. It will have a lot of models, will try to make it crowded and full of details.
6. It will be very big.
7. I dont have time to work on it everyday so realistically it will be ready around xmas :D
