At around 1:50PM PST today, I delivered the Zergling-for-DRG project to DongRaeGu himself. He was very happy. <3
His words were: "Woot!! NIIIIIICE!!!...... thanks!"
I had two cameramen to capture the scene, but it wasn't perfect.
The first video is unedited, so you can hear DRG's voice
The second is an amalgamation of both camera captures, with a custom track, because camera 2 was standing near a lot of noise. Here I am using Tekken's soundtrack, because I'm tired and have to sleep soon, if you want to suggest another track to overlay video 2, please PM me the song you want.
And to end it all... our very own R1CH captured this amazing photo of DRG looking at the book... I think his face says it all...
Edit: He just won MLG Spring Championship Anaheim!! I am sure our book helped!
Preface One year ago, a brilliant idea was hatched by Furaha to give a tribute to her favorite player, Jaedong, by delivering fan-art to the man himself. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=215652
This project is similar in scope and will focus on Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty Pro-gamer: DongRaeGu.
MVP_DongRaeGu is an amazing Zerg player from Korea He is the Champion of 2012 GSL S1 Code S. However, he's been hitting some rough times lately. I can't think of a better way to cheer him up than with this project. I hope all of you can help me out.
The Idea: Please submit a drawing of a Zerg unit or Building to this thread. You may submit more than one drawing per person. I will print them out and put them all in a nice binder to gift to DongRaeGu at MLG Anaheim. When DongRaeGu opens up the binder, he will see how much support he has from his fans and will have a maxed out Zerg army!
The Rules: 1. No messages besides "FOR DRG!!" will be allowed on the drawings. There have been instances in the past where translation of certain words may become an issue, we don't want that (writing DongRaeGu or Fighting! is fine, too). Yes you may sign your name on the artwork. 2. You may submit more than one drawing. Everyone is welcome! 3. Please scan your image and submit them here in this thread. I will update the opening post regularly.
The Delivery I will be attending MLG Anaheim and will hand this to DRG personally. If for some reason, DRG does not attend, this binder will be mailed to the MVP Team house for DRG on a later date.
The Deadline Please send all drawings in before June 5th. I want to make things nice and presentable for DongRaeGu. <3
The Prizes After MLG Anaheim, I will open up a voting poll for everyone to see who has the best artwork. The top three nominees all get 10 dollars gift card to Amazon.com. If you prefer, I can also wire the 10 bucks via paypal.
Sounds good? Let's show DongRaeGu some heart, because he's been showing us his since the Blizzard Cup.
*****************
Whats your favorite unit in the game?
DRG: Zerglinggggggggggg. So fasttttt, and cuteeeeeee.
I'm going to accept this one in lieu of the no text policy. The rule was made because some years ago, people would write negative comments to the opposing team or players...some what similar if somebody made an art with "die MKP!! DRG eats you!!"...it's just not pleasant. Since these words are mostly in-game names and DRG cheers, it seems harmless enough.

B4. 1 hydralisk B5. 1 zergling B6. 1 mutalisk (even though it's not a real mutalisk, DRG's hand puppet shadows are just as dangerous!) B7. 1 Ultralisk B8. 1 zergling B9. 1 zergling B10. 1 lurker/swarmhost thing... B11. 1 drone, 1 baneling, a zergling B12. 1 mutalisk (sorry promethelax, copy paste the same drawing doesn't count)

Can't you draw it by hand, ink it and scan? You can color with your computer. seems like the easiest way.
It is a very nice idea. Like it because DRG ist my favourite player thus far. I'm not that big artist by myself but maybe I can get a good drawing of a Zergunit.
DRG is my favorite player, its sad to see he going through such a hard time. but unfortunately i really suck at drawing. whatever, that‘s an awesome idea. I bet DRG will be moved much. : )

What ''such a hard time''? He got 2nd in two MLGs in less than 3 months, and got first in GSL code S. Seems like a good time to me. 2 players of drop out of every RO32 group. Putting too much weight on that.
Either way, I like this thread, it's a real nice thing to do. I'm impressed by what you guys have done so far!
Don't complain to me about things not having the right amount of legs, horns, eyes. I now know that the larve don't slide out of the tubes o the hive, but it would be a VAST improvement if they did. Everything has glasses on, because things with glasses are cool. For example DRG and ME. Finally, I think I am really on the right track with the Flame upgrade for the roach.

ROFLMAO!
You need to unspoiler that image NAO!!! It's too good!!!
I wonder what that ball on the ground with glasses and eyebrows is....(next to the zergling)

D: that lump is a creep tumor! Queen is planting tumor (damn should have gotten her a sun hat!), a cute young one, and the other "ball one" is all buffed out and grown up in the ground!
I am glad the pics from everyone cheered drg up. The swarm never looked so good!
Thanks neoghaleon55 for offering to print the pictures out, (GL with that it is a pain in the arse...) About spoiler thing, "the rules" say you should spoil pictures right? Yes I read the instructions for the forum...

OOH it's a creep tumouroror. :D
Oh and you mean put spoilers around your pictures. No you don't have to in this thread. Generally that's the rule with live report threads when games are playing, because you don't want to clutter. But this thread is specifically a picture thread, so it's ok.

Ya, it was you!! haha thanks for bringing it to my attention. These are hard times for DRG, I'm just glad we can make a difference. I can't stand to see him so sad. T_T
That's pretty. love the colors. What program did you use to draw this?
They are 3d models I made in Maya and rendered in mental ray. I'm still kind of a noob at it though. I also edited my post because I rendered it in higher quality. Other render version, even higher quality: + Show Spoiler +

Smash's picture is definitely the best so far.
I just set this as my background... wow it looks really nice against a black color backdrop. Thanks.
After a lot of deliberation...I've decided not to include this one in the OP. Sorry, Vxu...you have to draw your own zergling. No cut and paste. I'm sure DRG appreciates the thought though... <3
another ~30 min sketch/colours. wasn't liking how it was turning out so just coloured the sketch and left it at that... one of these days I'll airbrush something if I come up with an idea/sketch worth the time.

My attempt to make DRG a swarm host, to remind him of the great things to come.
That's very sweet. oh, dear...how am I going to put this in his army... hmmm hmmm...
Ummm...What model did they use in the HotS mod for WoL? That, maybe.
I'll use the lurker model, that's what they were using in the mod.
I was going to make a lurker first to remind him of great things in the past but I figured the future would be better for DRG, he'll win another Code S soon.

I drew DRG comforting the ultralisk because he kept dying this week when he used them. poor ultras...poor DRG...
but with our help, they'll be back stronger than ever!

A Muta flock for DRG, unstoppable and powerful just like the man himself.

Just do it It doesn't matter if you think you're bad, I bet DRG will appreciate it anyway
Yea...if there's ever a good time to support a player, it's when he's down and out. DRG has not been playing like himself lately...there's some mental/emotional issues he's going through. We have to help him, he needs us, every artwork counts!

Man look at mine, you don't have to be good at all. I'm just using paint and making zerg units instead of finishing my term papers. I (clearly) have no paint skills, you don't need to have any either. I was also hoping that Glider would get in on this.

The heart going into this project and all the drawings are astounding! Hope someone makes a bang-up drawing for DRG, he is such a great player! I'm not much of an artist, but my message is: DRG you're amazing, keep these drawings in mind, and go for the gold!
Why are you posting this? You can't submit official blizzard art.
he posted that because the guy before him used paint and just coloured over that picture instead of making something original.
I would not discredit the paint job, it's remarkably time consuming. You can kind of tell how hard he worked by the amount of art strokes that were used. And for god's sakes, he used microsoft paint! That's hardcore!

No offence taken, I just did what I could with what I had... No drawing skills exist here. :D

I also find PuPu's color choices fascinating, the final product looks quite distinct from the original piece.
coming from a background wher tracing/touchng other peoples art is somewhat explicitly forbidden, this comes off as kind of wierd. I'm not really that upset but you have to realise while everyone else is trying to bake their cake from the ground up an induvidual has taken someone else's cake and put their own icing on top.

I'm sorry if my work was somewhat wrong in your eyes. I just wanted to help out one of my favourite players. When i did that i really wasn't sure about my skills so i ended up trying something easier, wich would still end up looking nicely. Anyways i'm sorry once more if that is big problem. I'm now working on something original, as i'm more confident on my skills ^^

8h David Pham @MVPDongRaeGu it's not DRG. next time fighting! don't lose your confidence
T_T He's still somewhat depressed after what happened last Thursday. I hope more drawings will cheer him up. Maybe I'll make another one, too, today. Go say something nice to him on twitter if you haven't already!

For me, a lot of them don't work. The weird thing is uploaded both my pictures with the service linked from TL and one works, the other one doesn't.
That is really strange. I see them all fine, both in the opening post and on the thread pages. I wonder if it's a network error you guys are experiencing...or maybe a firewall issue.

does anyone know where the cartoon for why the defiler isn't in sc2? when I see these threads it reminds me of that, as if the zergling girl handed out invites to jaedong drg etc to control the swarm lol.
Did you just make this? It's a nice idea, but I'm a little hesitant for a few reasons.
1. It's made up of text, which is kind of against the rules of entry...
2. There seems to be no indication that it was made for DRG, it's just very generic and could have been made for any other reason. In fact the names it does have are Kerrigan and Kroprulu... If you revise this art to make it more DongRaeGu-centric ...we'll consider it.

Let me clarify. The text used should just be generic cheers like "For DRG, DongRaeGu Fighting" or something to that effect. I'm not super strict about it, but there's definitely problems with that submission.

Sorry didn't read the rules properly at 4am :S
Yeah it was for another project but I ended up not using it. The old one had just a small DRG reference. Now it's more of a DRG fighting and a game where you can see if you find all the DRG cheers. I drew the outlines before creating the wordwraps.

DRG is my favorite zerg player and I cheer for him in every matchup. I actually made a lot of these images in order to cheer for DRG at MLG Columbus 2012. Here are some images I've created for other posts.

I really feel that these projects are really good, and encourage better interaction between community members. Also, I'm sure star players really appreciate the community support that, as playing SC2 competitively is really really difficult!

Huh, I never saw this thread, but wtf at the "he's been hitting some rough times lately" right after two MLG 2nd places and like a month after his GSL win (not to mention now with his MLG win). This is cute and all, but I really thing it devalues the message if, you know, he's not going through a hard time at all.

After drg lost winter championship, he was a total wreck. He played terribly in code s, as a result, got last place and dropped to code A. Then he went on to lose in the gstl without a single win, losing his team a chance to go to Vegas. Also lost ksl and other stuff along the way. DRG was in a bad place. We fans stood by him and cheered him up with artwork. Now he's winning again! :D
Those of you who submitted a picture... if you want me to transcribe a personal message to DRG next to your pic, please let me know...either here or through PM.
Update: So I decided to print out the pictures using glossy papers, done professionally at a photography center. There was no way my crappy printer could do all your wonderful art work justice.
They turned out very nice, like photographs.
I got double sided tape to stick the corners of the pictures to the scrap book, and then wrote every art piece's
-artist -country -date published -special note or message from the artist
Here are some new screenshots.
oh and abalam, I wrote the first half of your message "...greetings from Switzerland" next to your first contribution. <3

He's one of my favorite zergs, and I want to thank him for signing my book at IEM NY. So I hope he likes it.
hehehehe that is a hilarious picture. Looks like he is about to saddle up that beast and haul ass to the moon! DRG should thank neoghaleon55 for being a fanatical fan :3 (thanks neoghaleon55 for starting this thread, I have enjoyed drawing and looking at the stuff everyone has posted.) Those pics seem to be not perma sealed in those sleeves, which is good, because if I were DRG I would probably plaster a small room with these pictures.
Of course there is still time to draw more stuff. I want to see an architectural schematic of an ultralisk cavern inside and out! Mine would have a hot tub and wet bar in the center!

hehe I'm pretty sure I'm beating our dear Djagulingu (fan club president) to being DRG's #1 fan by now XD.
The pics are not perma sealed, they're removable.
And I can't wait to see DRG in a hottub...with wenches... wait wait, just draw his girlfriend, we don't want to get him in more trouble. XD
I'll try to get a friend to film myself handing the book to DRG. I'm definitely getting a picture with him. I didn't do all this work for nothing! :D

LOL That's cute I was wondering when you would submit a picture, [F_]aths. Those eyes, I can't stop laughing. I actually know where the eyes came from cause I took that picture. haha.
Reminder guys, only one week left until submission deadline. If you want your artwork to make it to DRG, make sure you submit your work by Tuesday June 5th.
I need time to have the studio print out the art, then write your inscription.
After i red your last post, i had to do one picture more, and i ended up doing this rather fastly. Because of the speed i did it with it ain't the prettiest but hopefully good enough ^^

haha cool design. I'll add this in. No unit will be award towards DRG's army because you didn't draw one.

This group is kind of weird, so I'll add some notes.
B1. 1 zergling B2. 1 zergling (because Rival used zerglings to draw that image) B3. no unit...icons receive no reward. B4. 1 hydralisk B5. 1 zergling B6. 1 mutalisk (even though it's not a real mutalisk, DRG's hand puppet shadows are just as dangerous!) B7. 1 Ultralisk B8. 1 zergling B9. 1 zergling B10. 1 lurker/swarmhost thing... B11. 1 drone, 1 baneling, a zergling B12. 1 mutalisk (sorry promethelax, copy paste the same drawing doesn't count)
The second is an amalgamation of both camera captures, with a custom track, because camera 2 was standing near a lot of noise. Here I am using Tekken's soundtrack, because I'm tired and have to sleep soon, if you want to suggest another track to overlay video 2, please PM me the song you want.
SOO AWESOME!! Great Job Neoghaleon. The book helped him secure first place in his MLG group today =]. No lets cheer him on to victory tomorrow!! Ive watched the video 5 times and pictured myself as you btw.
I was literally the first person in line to meet DRG on Day 1. It was fantastic!
DRG was scheduled to show up signing autographs on Day2 as well, but he didn't show!! (Actually, I saw DRG and violet walking through the door about an hour later lol) They had to pull Leenock in as replacement.
Had I missed Day 1's autograph session, this whole delivery would not have been possible. I'm just happy I didn't let everyone down.
OK guys, Please vote for your favorite artwork by posting here: I can't find a create a poll option to my liking that allows 50 options, with IP address identifier...so we're going to do this the old fashion way and post!!
You may vote for 3 art:
for example
If you post
1. A3 2. B3 3. C3
A3 will be given 3 points B3 will be given 2 points C3 will be given 1 point.
I will tally the points in the OP and will announce the winner in 1 week starting June 11, ending June 18th.
I think that neoghaleon55 should just keep the prizes. After all he did most of the job, payed to get all our pictures on that book and also brought it to DRG himself. So i think he deserves that money much more than us (atleast more than i do), even tho people sent really good pictures ^^

Don't worry, I got the best prize of all. Thanks to you guys, I was able to see DRG's face live as he open the fanbook, got his signature and a handshake.
So let's just finish this project the way we planned, by picking our favorite art. good art deserves recognition, too.
Great vindication for all your hard work neo. I almost feel you're part responsible for his success, and I love it since he is my favorite player and personality. Thank you so much for your genuine care.
