Well deserved, i have high hopes for the zerg "lobbies" before the missions. I drool just by imagining a hatchery from inside, fully working, and with such a great artist behind them.

I reaally hope he does the paladin for the first D3 expansion too (since its pretty obvious the 5th will be amazon/bow user).

That's awesome! Haha.. when I first saw one of his pieces of art I just assumed it was another official piece of Blizzard art already. I later learned that wasn't the case. It's great to hear that it's true now!

Gratz!

Now they need to hire Guitar Johnny for his music work!

I tried to commit seppuku, but I accidentally committed bukkake.

Such an excellent and talented artist. I always enjoy looking at his work, but I have to say, the Diablo fan art far outclasses his Starcraft ones. I wish him the best and am looking forward to seeing more of his work in the future (and in the manuals). ;]

this is probably the worst sc2 news I've read in a while

they are just NOW hiring a new artist for SC2? are you kidding me? and his talents are probably going to have to go to waste taking orders from inferior artists (samwise) and dumb down his work to "fit" into Blizzard lore

but at least hes getting paid CHA CHING


You do know they are making 2 more games for sc2 after this right?

You on crack? Yes theres 2 more expansions. But as he said.. the NEXT expansion is the Zerg expansion so it is good timing.


You on crack? Blizzard hired MrJack cause he's talented, not cause he can draw Zerg. There are Blizzard games that need concept art other than SC2.
It felt like gravity.
