This is in brood war so feels kinda off to mention but the portrait when selecting protoss buildings in sc2 looks like a parody. It's a rasta protoss. Also the terran looks about the same as in SC except it looks like it had a stroke or something or possibly high on drugs, maybe got some from rasta protoss chillin inside the nexus

EPIC THREAD IS EPIC!!! All so far is awesome lol I haven't seen them all. The first one I ever noticed was the loading screen, I too thought he looked akin to Jar Jar waaay back then.

I'm sorry but I always saw the drone eyes as the yellow things too, but when I looked at the red things I was second-guessing myself to be perfectly honest.

My favorite is the Missile Turret one, I totally never noticed that! Wow... the funny thing is... Even when you pointed out that picture to me, my eyes totally went past what was obviously highlighted for me and I looked right at this, even though the real graphic doesnt look anything resembling a human controlling the thing in the back like a computer or something.

Maybe cuz I thought he was smokin a joint out back or somethin

^ I always saw the shoulder blade as a lower lip and wondered if the goofy looking alien was some sort of protoss that somehow didn't look like the other ones.

Ahah, I always imagine Mutalisks as flying shrimp, and Guardians as flying crabs. Chances are if we tried hard enough, we would discover a seafood equivalent for every Zerg air-unit.

I believe mutalisks were acknowledged to be modeled after shrimp, guardians crabs, and devourers beetles

you can see the wing casings/covers up to top left.

In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

That's probably how most Terran players see the Defiler.

Some of the zerg mugshots have always been tough for me. I must be among Gooseheaded's "most terran players"; how is one supposed to interpret the defiler portrait? At least I'm not alone in having serious Rorschach tests with some of the artwork. :D
