In anticipation of the launch of their SC2 gaming gear, Razer's back on TeamLiquid with a badass contest and some badass hardware up for grabs! This weekend's contest involves submitting screenshots taken from the SC2 map editor. Can you recreate the Mona Lisa in the medium of Marines and dead Zerglings? Or how about Razer's Triple-Headed Snake logo with perfect geometry? Or Lincoln's assassination at Ford's Theater?
If contests on TeamLiquid have taught us anything, its that our members will churn out pristine works of art when given unconventional mediums. Remember the cake contest? Of course you do. So let's see if you lot can impress and astound once again. The greatest of you will recieve gaming hardware prize packs courtesy of our 'For Gamers, By Gamers' friends at Razer. Be sure to keep an eye out for further opportunities on TL to deck out your gaming space when Razer's SC2 product line hits stores!
How to Enter:
1 - Open your SC2 Map Editor and arrange units & buildings to form a work of art 2 - Take a screenshot and upload it somewhere, such as http://www.imageshack.us 3 - Post your screenshot in this thread to be judged, may the best win! 4 - Submit as many entries as you like, the best will be chosen. You can only win once! 5 - Winners will be contacted & must reply with full shipping information so Razer can send you your new gear!
Contest will close at 10:00 TL time, July 26th. That's 6pm Sunday evening for the US west coast, for reference.
Prizes provided by Razer:
1st place: A complete Razer setup including: 1x Razer Lycosa 1x Razer Abyssus 1x Razer Moray+
2nd place: 1x Razer Abyssus
3rd place: 1x Razer Moray+

Is this strictly the rule?
Because that cuts out terrain as a medium.

This is probably going to be one of the most awesome threads... Already 2 submissions on the first page that blow my mind. The baneling is awesome. I am stoked! Keep em coming TL!

hell no, look at that baneling. use terrain, use everything!

amazing how the prizes are an excuse for them to unload some old inventory lol...
sooo greedy. can't even offer some of the new sc2 gear as part of their contest. bad move imho, considering that the stuff showing up here would basically be advertising for them

You know what would be nice if I could authorize my editor so I could enter.

No one is forcing you to apply.
On topic: Hopefully I will find the time to do something on my own for this one, sounds fun

I really don't see the reason in shitting all over a legitimate contest like this.
That being said GL to all the people who submit entries those first two were awesome. Hoping for some more cake contest quality entries to blow my mind lol.

so.. the post says this: "In anticipation of the launch of their SC2 gaming gear," and this: "Be sure to keep an eye out for further opportunities on TL to deck out your gaming space when Razer's SC2 product line hits stores!"
from this you couldn't gather that the sc2 products aren't out yet. i'm astounded.
|
Really surprised that they werent giving out their new starcraft gear, as the games release is 5 days away, the products were announced at e3, and really, it's a starcraft 2 forum. So I kinda agree with the previous poster. Personally, I couldnt care for any of the razer products on that page, so i'm chosing not to enter into this contest, as I'm sure someone else could probably use the upgrade.
Well anyways, that baneling looks fantastic though, wow.

Oh look at the irony in this post lol.
|
So you get the opportunity to do something fun in the Map Editor and you complain about being able to win FREE stuff?
"Omg it's old shit why don't we get the new stuff, I'm not gonna apply for this!11!" "I want the newest shit out on the market !1111 Or I'm not gonna apply!" "P.S I'll tell mommy about Razer being assholes and not giving away the newest stuff for free!"
Stop crying about it, I'll sure as hell give it a try!

Wow I love how someone actually made their 1st post an entry for the contest, and not a bad one either imho. This has already gotten 4 entries... I wonder what we'll see next. Maybe there will be a Thor made out of rines and terrain. Or a portrait of something... The possibilities are limitless for what I suck at creating... GL to everyone entering and HF.
|
Love Razer for backing SC up! Btw I can vouch for Abyssus being an awesome mouse for SC2. Definitely the best RTS mouse I've owned :-)
|
looove the baneling <3 GL everyone who enters
|
This is already amazing... Wish I were creative enough to win this, I would love first prize lol. I'll try to think of something sweet enough.

Resized and desaturated for easier comparison (i think it's quite impressive ):

Yo dawg, I heard you like marines.

id prefer her without the units everywhere. maybe just 2 red landing lights as eyes.
|
Guys, thanks for feedback. I would like to play all day with this but sadly (ironic) i'm going on vacation till release, that means no more updating.
I used my last hour for tweeking, I think it looks much better, used some terrain to paint under units, tightened positions of units and few more tweeks. However eyes are giving me problems, i'll just submit both test versions tell me what you think, but sadly i won't be able to fix them, maybe when i'm back
Here you go
Overlord eyes:
Red sphere eyes (sphere bit too big sadly):

Here's my entry!
The contest closes on the 26th, will judging and prizes take place on the same day? I ask because next week i could potentially be away from any computers until the 29th, and I don't want to miss anything!

i think this tread should be featured, some amazing shit has been done here.
that baneling is awesome, kerrigan and medic come close.
pedobear and "the cock" are pretty good too.

How is using terrain easier than using units/buildings?
*edited to make sense
|
dude what if you steal someone's picture and enter
|
Yeah, the hydra took a while, worked on it for a few hours tonight and a few hours last night.
I like the units to make the art, but with the terrain you can really add some crazy detail to make the pictures awesome.
<3 this thread. I might have to do another!

You have constructed additional pylons.

if you've never opened the map editor before, it will ask you to login. and since you can't login anymore ... also if you've uninstalled the beta and can't download it anymore

Submission #2!
the kerrigan statue provided reference/inspiration
I'm a little suprised at how capable the sc2 editor is at digital painting!

Wonder if they'd appreciate the honesty of a "Razer sucks donkey balls" submission?
|
HalfAmazing, I have to admit, that made me laugh lol.
I like baneling the best and hydra is almost as good.
I like the portrait of kerrigan but that can't compare with the map edited stuff easily in my mind so I can't give kerrigan a fair place in my ranking. Keriggan protrait is awesome though.

Those are great pictures, but IMO it kinda takes away from the challenge of using the map editor.
Using the terrain to draw is just like using other drawing programs, there's nothing there that makes it unique to the map editor (using units/buildings and such)

Haha, well for me this was more of a 'i wonder what the editor is capable of if i use it this way..'
Respect to those of you using just units and doodads. I tried a few and man, it is not easy to get it to look good.
Anyway this was more of just a fun thing to do for me, if only using the terrain textures gets me disqualified thats fine. Hell if it puts me anywhere near the 'this isnt really in the spirit of the contest' area, please pull me out of the running, i don't want to take anything away from anyone else!

I'm not an amazing artist, so I went for terrible humor instead. And if you can load an image into map editor, I feel dumb, cause I totally free handed and held a printed copy over my monitor marking key points! lol. Oh well. All in good fun.

That looks awesome, although I must ask, why the ridge on the left side of the heart?

I still feel that first bane ling is so clean cut, the terrain looks fantastic. It's just greatly displayed and is top notch.

Its supposed to be light reflecting off it, but yeah it does look a bit bad. Mostly I just got a little overly zealous with the hills haha.
I actually had a version without that which I'll upload and I'll remove that older pic.
|
I never use map editor before so yeah took some time to figure it out haha. I chose the best character in starcraft of course . Hope you guys like it. Took me couple of hours -_- and i really hate drawing haha but i kinda need a new mouse xP.
edit: i put a closer up picture. so you can see the archons and zerg building and units for her hair.

This is made with only marines D; and abit of grass xD lol

For all those think I shopped it, you guys can download the map file here and open it yourself: http://replaypp.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/raynor.SC2Map
It took me about 3-4 hours to make this, I don't really expect to win this contest with this, but really just showing the limits of what you can do on an SC2 map.

You didn't shop it, it just turned out to be a 100% accurate match with no imperfections, with the only bad parts being parts not present in the actual photo and look terribly done in comparison with the astonishingly perfect rest of the map

I'm going to make something awesome this weekend, and I'll try to record everything and make a timelapse video to prove I didn't import from an image. FTW!!
I hope I win ^^

Lemme tell ya, my first time in map editor and it is a LOT to take in all at once. My 1st draft looks like a 9yo did it but i think i am headed in a good direction. (An artist i guess i am not)
Think it's got any potential ?

I think it looks great considering he made it with just marines. That is much harder then just using the editor as ms paint, although those are also very impressive

land nukes on that marine made of marines. I'm very curious to see if it gets some funky bloody looking marine!

Thanks! I think I will edit the gun tomorrow and then add some background effects and it should be finished, the only problem is that it takes forever to edit a texture chunk (40-60 sec) I thing its because of all the marines lagging like crazy. Anyway, good luck with the editing, everyone! :D

When using mass amounts of units, make sure you turn your graphics down to lowest while you're working and then turn them back up when you screenshot it.
I've been hard at work on mine all day but I'm not gonna post it till im done
|
Nice work everyone!
Think I might do some more work on this one but might just start something diffrent as it's starting to really really lag It may not be made from just marines and dead zerglings but i tried my best.
|
This is my second entry after the baneling ( i will try to make him a bit better tomorrow )
I have always been a fan of huge spaceships and since i'm kinda disappointed by the current battlecruiser i have made my own :p It took me a lot of timeeeeee T-T
( Look how small the real battlecruiser is on the pic ^^)
Remember i have only used doodads available in the editor and nothing else !!! No photoshop, no 3Dmax etc...
Here is the map if you don't believe me [url blocked]

My hand hurts a lot now. But i don't know if it was worth it. I wanted to make this changeling with only changeling's but the color didn't come out very well.

I'm a #008, so, how would I go about getting the editor if I wasn't part of the beta? I can't find anything on their website to get anything of the sort.

the mona lisa is impressive, so is the ship this is going to be hard to judge

This is all I have after 2 days starting to get to glitchy, (don't ask me how but I managed to squeeze a little more in to show respect to Razer and of coarse Starcraft 2, also added a picture with no background and no terrain.)

Inspired by AssuredVacancy's entry, I decided to go all out and make an image to map converter.
(note that this is by no means an entry because it's pretty much cheating if it were; this is just showing what is possible)
Here's the map for proof that it really does convert the image into textures: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2785328/raynormap.SC2Map

Well, this took much longer than I thought it would >.< But it's 100% editor! You can't use abilities in the editor so I had to make a ton of custom units/doodads and trying to get the unit portrait looking good took forever!
|
I wanted to make an entry with units, I'm pretty happy with it. I wanted to do more, it was supposed to be neural parasiting an SCV. But I had so many units on the map the editor nearly locked every time I did something.
Also as a warning to others, I saved often, but when I reloaded it after my final save. Like 80% of the image was gone, and the colors missing seemed completely arbitrary. So I guess there's some limits I broke. So, be careful about saving your work to come back later!
PLEASE please please look at the full size, you can actually see the details like some grain on the armor plating. I also tried to take a lesson from pointillism and do a bit of optical blending? (pretty sure that's what its called) mixed in some yellows/dark greys/greens to create a bit of diversity and a bit of emphasis. There was SO MUCH more I wanted to do just in the coloring but losing the map to the unit count limit or whatever just trashed that plan.
Just based off a random Infestor image I found

That's awesome man which units did you use?
Also how did you get the background? Photo shop?

Those would be changelings.
No photoshop, that's all editor. That's just the tile from one of the texture sets as seen from above using the export image feature.

Ok, I think its finished! I would have loved to edit this a lot more, but the lag of all 8414 marines makes it quite impossible. Anyway, this is it:
1000 ‰ marines

i actually tried to color the armor black but it wasn't possible because the editor crashed half way through D;

ah ic. that is true technically. but there are other things... but arguing with a mod doenst get anywhere so i'll stop. anyways thx for clarification.
release on 27th probably, to go along with sc2 release i'm guessing?

even still the guy who posted that has a point. one day difference , and they could hand out the spectre/marauder/banshee instead. and the publicity to go with it is hardly arguable as a business decision. i just felt strongly with that.
funny how the original guy who wrote that doesnt get one and i do.
would it have helped then to have said
"yeah, it probably would have made more business sense to have prizes for the actual sc2 products instead, as they would get free advertising in the process. plus it doesn't cost them much to hand out 5 prizes of the new gear compared with the existing ones"
the business decision itself. how can u argue with that? obviously thats not what they're doing. the whole post by scojac only makes sense BECAUSE that's what they're not doing.
seriously sick of TL ban rationales.

Stop to argue and post your entry. You are wrong anyway.

You're an idiot, if I were a mod you'd be IP-banned already.
A company that's been very pro-active in sponsoring SC2-events and organizing these competitions while giving out prizes freely .... and you call them "greedy" for not providing the prizes you wanted? (even though they aren't even out yet).
But no, you're even more of a douche than the original poster since you support his stupid comment by saying:
"so so freaken true.."
Not only is it so so not true, it also doesn't add anything to this thread. Not to mention that oneliners are frowned upon already unless they're useful or "freaken" hilarious. Combining that with the complete absence of correct spelling and interpunction it makes your post the pinnacle of bad posting.
But no, you weren't ready yet. You had to whine about the obvious warning you got and offended the mods by saying it would be no use to discuss it with them (since they're obviously all picking on you).
And after saying you would drop it, you went ahead and discussed it anyways, making me very angry and wanting to kill you. Further using spiffy arguments like: "he started" and "seriously sick of TL ban rationales" even though the only thing wrong is that you haven't been banned already.

I worked on this for about two hours yesterday and 1½ hour today. Seeing all the brilliant pictures already submitted, I decided to end it early. That's why the edge looks like it's made in paint(it's made in the editor, there's a black globe unit called Multi kill unit)
I'm kind of proud of the logo, but the rest is pretty meh. The razer logo is made out of 655 archons. I changed the model to the morph model(where two high templars morph into an archon) to remove the armor that blocked parts of the glowing effect I wanted.
As I said, I definitely don't expect to win with so many better submissions out there, but since I already used the time on it, I thought I could as well submit it.
Edit: I also couldn't find a black enough texture to use as color. If I had, I could've improved it way more.

( Look the size of the bcs on the chest ^^ )

Fixed some parts and tried to add more shading. sooo final....
|
Well here is the final version of my entry. In case you were wondering it's : 2523 Banelings + 429 cocoons 386 Archons 117 Pylons 115 Siege Tanks and some misc.
|
I wanted to make a second entry for fun, I guess a landscape really is just a map, but I thought it would be fun if it told a story. So here are some marines who crashed on a desert island.

WHERE IS THE RAZER LOGO
i cant believe how many good submissions i've seen that don't stand a chance because people didn't put the logo in.
come on guys =/
|
Would the razer logo make a good map? Not really.
|
This is a truly amazing thread. Congratulations to all of you who submitted work; it's completely mind-blowing.

I dont recall seeing a razer logo requirement.

18 hours of work.
Yes, my comp is horribly slow. Every time i tried to place a unit or raise the land, my comp wanted to DIE. It took a VERY long time because the program ran VERY slowly, and crashed on numerous occasions. Thus, i'm afraid, the simplicity of the work. I have yet to finish it, so hints/tips/suggestions are greatly appreciated. I'm hoping to add the Razer logo before second/final submission and touch up the brush job.

For Toss symbol: Carriers, phoenix, stalkers, dts, hts, and void rays.
Zerg: Overseers, infestor, hydra
Terran: Thor, marine, viking, tank (sieged).

D: I did not know of this! Why did i not know of this! Someone tell me why i did not know of this! Meh, i'm rubbish at terraining anyway. Now if it was a 'create a unit' contest, i would have roughly an 80% chance of winning ^^

There are some really good ones in here. Figured I'd just throw mine in anyway. My own work on the Firebat.

I have a really cool idea for a picture, but unfortunately i have no artistic skill at all. If someone is interested in turning this in to a submission you are welcome to, but i mainly am hoping people will apreciate the humor of this idea.
So this image would follow the evolution picture where a aquatic creature develops legs and the follows into man. instead the first figure will be a zerg larvae followed by a drone, then a zergling, then a roach, then an infestor starting to throw an infested terran egg. After the egg will be an infested terran followed by a normal marine looking back in horror.
Anyway i hope this idea is as amusing to you guys as it is to me, and i apologize for having to explain it instead of showing it. It definitely makes it seem less cool
I also think that the order of units mirrors a zerg build order against a meching terran ( i think)

aw really? i didnt even try to refine/finish it because i knew it was past deadline :p thanks for the consideration still
|
man didnt expect there to be this many awesome submissions. Boblion's 3 entries alone deserve like infinite gaming equipment :p
my favourite was probably the double Kerrigan, cause it was so different and pretty creative.
The Rayner where people thought it was photoshopped was pretty sick as well.
|
Step 1) Add a picture as a texture Step 2) Set that picture to be a units texture Step 3) ??? Step 4) Profit

wow, please tell the me razor logo wasn't a requirement!

It wasn't, but I think it should have been ^^
|
I'd hate to be the one judging this contest, haha. There's so many fantastic entries.
|
maybe it wasn't a hard requirement, but if i was razer i'd much rather display a screenshot that had my logo in it ^_^

imagine the most elaborate fanfare while reading the following contest results:
Winners are as follows!
First Prize: Teaspoons - If I didn't think it would irreparably damage my rep, I would bow down to this guy.
On July 24 2010 13:56 Teaspoons wrote:Wanted to submit my entry, good luck to all!
Second Prize: check mate - wtf made of 8414 marines.
On July 24 2010 22:39 check mate wrote:Ok, I think its finished! I would have loved to edit this a lot more, but the lag of all 8414 marines makes it quite impossible. Anyway, this is it: 1000 ‰ marines + Show Spoiler +
Third Prize: Boblion - The mock 3d with the hills on the baneling got me on this one, it looks great.

Hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooly that 1st picture was good. i liked the baneling tho. BUT the sheer effort that looks put into the marine was epic.
|
Wow.. these submissions are just crazy. Great Work!
|
I liked Boblion's ghost alot more than the baneling, but it's all fine because he won anyway. Better entries on average than I expected, thanks to participants ^^
