Hi. OP here. I just realized that this is currently 2nd highest front page reddit content. IIMARCII uploaded it. Thank you. Since I don't have reddit account, I cannot comment there. Also, thank you, TheCzarOfAll and JustPassingBy, for pointing out "Tasteless" misspell. IIMARCII seems to have edited it when he uploaded it on reddit, so no problem there. I will edit OP here as well.

Number of positive feedback is overwhelming. I didn't expect this many comments or readers even. Thank you all. I will soon answer all of the questions asked here that haven't been answered.

Lol, love the Shy Korean Girl pylon. What is that, some sort of abstract/interprative art? (no idea).
There is something strange in the Starcraft engine - liquipedia

Hi. OP here again. It seems that Tasteless & Balance ones are people’s favorites so far. Korean girl one might be 3rd. I like them, too. I think I used up most of my ideas. So, probably those will stay the best among orthodox Artosis pylon art.

Several people asked about graphic settings. It is intentionally low because shadows/details hurt symmetry. I will edit OP to clarify settings after this post.

Also, optical illusion(?) is found between 2 cannon ones I suppose. Some said it hurts their brains. It just looks fun and never hurt my brain after hundreds of scrolls. So, I don’t know if I do anything about it.

I hope this thread brings a smile to Artosis' face.

I hope he likes it. Artosis pylon used to always mean “bad placements.” But I am trying to promote a positive image so that community can still use the term without offending him in any way. None of my work would have come up if no term existed for a pylon that powers many buildings. Special Thanks to Artosis.

dont know, i like terran buildings way more :O

I like your depot usage. New inspiration for me.

I never realised a pylon could support so much buildings :O
very nice !

I hope protoss will incorporate this in their plays, hehehehe

Me neither. In fact, all Protoss needs is 1 pylon to play a 15min game in terms of power field area. He just needs other pylons for supplys.

The beauty of your art makes me close to tears. Only thing there is to ask: could you make these in wallpaper friendly format? I mean bigger size, and maybe placing the pylon in a nice spot on the map and include some of the surroundings in the picture too?

I have to do the work all over again just to change resolution/aspect ratio of the image. So, if people agree on which image they want to see in what resolution on what graphic settings(Low like now or Ultra/Extreme), then I can make a few wallpaper size ones. But I don’t have fancy tool/computer. I only use printscreen key and paint application with laptop display. No photoshop, no HD. So, it’s not gonna be be high quality.

“GG” would be truly mannered.

I will add to OP later on. Thanks for your time&effort. Bull’s Eye gave me new inspiration.

I am adding 4 new images to OP right after this. I will update again sometime later with another new concept.

I for one would prefer the The pylon which isnt Artosis pylon yet, or the 16 gate all-in, on ultra. However if there isnt much requests for these, theres no need to do it just for me. I can do it meself with resolution that actually matches my olskool CRT, which i assume isnt something which matches the resolution most of the people would prefer.
