Im pretty sure she's lounging on top of a cloaked banshee, but it's kinda hard to tell.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter. Still hella epic.

Jpoon or w/e has a point on the whole "relatedness to SC". While everything else he said was stupid you should take his criticism on that point better in order to make your work significant. Honestly its probably worth more to you than all these other people going "omG its aMaZiNg"

Obviously the picture is supposed to be focusing on the pilot, so I doubt you want the banshee to actually be more apparent (although imo it should be), but I would definately not be able to make the connection between "banshee pilot" and this picture unless someone actually pointed it out. Like the hair, the suit colour, and the generic background doesn't really scream anything "banshee". You could have added something like dominion decals to her suit and it would be clearer (also it would take the plainness out of the suit imo), thats just one example I quickly came up with.

Personally I think it would be pretty awesome if the background was like CHAR and BC's are exploding above.. but then you got this banshee pilot all like "w/e idc". Call it "ghost-riding" with clear emphasis on the pun. Thats prolly not in your artistic vision though

tlDR The picture in itself is pretty good, but like jpoon I wouldn't exactly call it starcraft

hey dude.. really great work. can i ask, how do you do the hair? are you suing a graphics tablet or is it rendered?

(i use a intous 4) and i have drawn / colored hair similar.. but yours seams really thin and realistic.

*Facepalm

I've noticed that most of the people complaining that this is not Starcraft fan art are fairly new members. Are you maybe just a casual player of the game? Have you ever actually even looked at the portrait of the Banshee pilot?? This is quite obviously a banshee pilot laying on a cloaked banshee.

If you wouldn't notice it without having it pointed out, then you either aren't very aware, or just haven't played as terran much, or watched vods of terrans, or played through the single player.... actually you're probably just not very aware.

JoonP, you are a complete asshat. If it's not your preference, fine. But don't sit here and attack the artist. The fact that it's fan art is not subjective. The helmet and uniform are obviously Banshee. Blizzard made the Pilot in the game sexy. This is not some new element the artist introduced. If you have some beef with the tight fitting uniform of Banshee pilots, bring it up with Blizzard!

I mean, both of you... for christ sake! look at the portrait!!!

@ayababa
The hair was done with photoshop, with wacom yes.
if you want to have a closer look at the hair file construction heres the link:
http://www.thecheekyduck.com/sc/hair.psd

I do draw in B&W then colour on top using levels, cb etc.
base
then strands,
then strands,
then glows,
multi,
etc.

its a very long, long process. but i think it looks nice at end result, no easy way to do hair sorry =)
but i hope that helps.

I very much enjoy looking at this image

Wouldn't use it as a desktop background though, too bright for me.
