I love the work, don't get me wrong, but it's kind of pathetic how many white knights came out today. Can't wait for Kerrigan! | ||

I really want more of these! I love how subtle the reference to Starcraft 2 is. It's just a dope ass wallpaper, that happens to be SC related. Awesome. | ||

Actually the other guy was being a 'white knight,' talking about how the image degrades women and whatnot. And who in this thread has said anything about dropping their pants to this image? Only you and him seem to think that's what this image is for. | ||

I love the work, don't get me wrong, but it's kind of pathetic how many white knights came out today. Can't wait for Kerrigan! lol'd I don't mind that (s)he disagreed, really. If I saw the picture before knowing what it was... I would probably figure out it was related to SCII (and thus a Banshee) due to the BNet logo on the helmet, simply based on the fact that the character is lying on what appears to be an invisible circuit board. On the other hand, a fair bit of deductive reasoning would be required to make that assessment. That said, if someone mentioned that it was a banshee, it would be fairly obvious that, "Oh, yeah, that's what the OP was drawing. Makes sense kk." So I can partially sympathize with what the banned person said and that people were calling into question his (her) sexuality or mental soundness. Not necessary. That said, I called him (her) stupid in a particularly harsh fashion, and (s)he deserved it. As said, if you don't need to figure out what it is ex nihilo, and banshee is even suggested, it's fairly obvious that a banshee is being depicted. In a vacuum, the criticisms were disproportionate. In a situation where the OP is putting his works out there, it's a dick move. I mean, not a ton of TLers understand the concept of 'polite discourse,' so perhaps joonp was well within the mores of the community, but I'm not really a big fan of injecting an unsolicited opinion of a creative work. I don't think the OP, whoever he is, *did* solicit an opinion in the OP. Now, in the Strategy section, I have absolutely no issue pointing out factual flaws, as factual flaws will directly impact the SC2 performance of those who take up that strategy. But a creative work? Come on. Show some decorum and courtesy (this line not being directed at you). | ||

Is it possible that the Banshee pilot in game has a way bigger bust than the one in this fan art? Not that i dont like this fan art, but it kinda looks strange to me because im used to bigger sizes when i think about the banshee unit portrait. ^^ | ||

I know, and wholeheartedly sympathize with your distinct terror at the sight of unnecessary femininity. ![]() hilarious! ROFL and as for the OP! This wallpaper is awesome! I have added it to my wallpaper folder, and I'm excited to see more of your work :D | ||

Hope that helps =) But everyone knows that drawings defy the laws of physics per default. Especially in regards to gravity and anatomy. Is that not a law of physics in itself? Oh noes, a paradox... | ||

I have. There's nothing practical about them... like... at all. In my case, they were used as a form of sexual bondage (I was free to try to escape if I could, was a devious game). The best I could do was crawl around and then the foot cramp happened and everything sucked. I only say all this due to the "empowering" assertion earlier in this thread. The only way this could be construed as "empowering" is in the context of a bdsm scene where the subs/slaves just *want* to worship your feet (and hopefully you won't have to try to walk around in them). In any other sense, there is no asserting power in those things because even though the assertion can be made it's power over male sexuality (because they get hard over heels for whatever reason), the reality is that you can't defend yourself in those heels and once the men realize that, you find yourself being raped by a gang of stimmed marines before the scan wears off. Good art though. Love the coloring. | ||

In regards to heels, I can dance in them, in my younger years I use to do ballroom. But I believe I need to clarify that empowering in regards to sexuality, not beat them up power. I do know that Nina in tekken wears heels, her high kick also does a lot of damage. anywhoo the banshee fights sitting down, with a craft, in the air. im sorry to hear that you had trouble walking in heels, but i once saw a stripper jump swing on a pole, light herself on fire and dance pritter fast to that $100 note without falling... i guess its practice.... hang in there! hope that helps =) | ||
