Ok, figured a Starcraft art competition would be kinda fun.

Rules:
-Has to be Starcraft related.
-MSPAINT only, no photoshop or fancy software allowed.
-Mouse and keyboard only, no draw pads and other OP shit allowed.
-5 submissions per user maximum.

Make sure you also write a description of your artwork as well. I want to hear about your thought process making it, what kind of techniques you used and why you chose that particular subject to draw.

Make them stupid, funny, amazingly detailed, whatever, do your thing.

Post your submissions below, I'm still looking for judges. Depending on the amount of interest and submissions the artpieces will be featured, discussed and the winners will be revealed on stream.

Winner will receive 25 USD courtesy of sugar daddy Des.

Rendered similarly to Renaissance portrayals of the One True Goose, the piece features a goose figure-from the waist up. Believed by many to be a DT or some other cloaked Protoss unit.

Behind her is a hazy and seemingly isolated landscape imagined by the artist and painted using sfumato, a technique resulting in forms “without lines or borders, in the manner of smoke or beyond the focus plane.”

In addition to its mysterious appearance, her expression has resonated most strongly with art historians for its possible symbolism, as many believe it to be a clever “visual representation of the idea of happiness suggested by the word ‘gioconda’ in Italian.”

Not only does she threaten us with a light and jovial "mess with the honk, get the bonk" but her mere presence awakens an awe in us that we can't quite pinpoint; is it her stare? Her strong gaze? Her natural effeminacy?

Her crown is a mark of her heroism, most likely gained through actual royalty or stolen from a garden.

It's a PvZ battle above the clouds.

Before I dipped my mouse in paint I decided I could almost definitely draw at least 1 decent muta and then make a flock by copypasting him a couple times.

I wanted to create a scene where the viewer doesnt actually know who is going to win this battle high above the clouds.

It looks favorable for the toss but who knows how many Muta were in the original flock, perhaps the carrier has barely any Hull remaining and the Mutas are about to shred the remaining ships.

Maybe the mutas are hurt and about to retreat , who knows where this game was going or how it ended?

For the background I chose to use clouds and mountains to indicate that the aliens are battling high high above the planet where Carriers can manuever in and out of space.

The spraycan proved effective at making nice frosty clouds and some simple lumpy brown triangles made for great mountains.

I know, it looks like a screenshot, but i swear i made it in paint. It's an average protoss player meeting a zerg player.
Is will hopefully also get used as a turorial for newer zerg players on how to deal with stupid protoss players. The colour composition of this piece of art shows the emotional struggle of the zerg on whether he should write "out!" or an offensive "gg" in the chat

Don't be afraid to draw or submit if you're bad at drawing by the way, art pieces will NOT be judged solely on skill.

This one is an inside view from a Dragoon's cockpit. It is my belief that goons are controlled using the QWOP movement system, and the only reason they manage to get anywhere is that the pilots had literal centuries to practice it.

Nuclear launch detected.


+ Show Spoiler +

Thought process:
I wanna draw a scene out of Hiya vs Free or FBH vs Savior, that's gonna be so hype!
Wait I can't justify spending over 10 hours on that just to make sure people will understand it...
I can depict Flash vs Boxer on Python: Goliaths shooting down Dropships!
Nevermind. I just know I can't translate my mental image of that to a drawing, let alone to Paint. Sigh...

Oh, I know! I can depict a power nuke! (it's how I call EMP nuke).
Anyone who has played his/her share of online Starcraft has likely fallen victim to it. And once you have been a victim, you just know you have to try it yourself. It can serve as the ultimate BM or either a very stylish way to own your opponent.
Every time I use it. It makes me feel incredibly evil, in a good way.
I tried to make the science vessel look somewhat like a skull to fit that theme of evil and death.
It's also why I chose the contrasting colours.

Techniques used:
Flip horizontal/vertical, transparent selection, ctrl-a, ctrl-x, ctrl-c, ctrl-v, ctrl-z, ctrl-y, gridview, shapes, color 1, color 2 and edit color.
FBH #1!
