In both his ultralisk pictures, Mr. Jack is exaggerating the size of the Ultralisk (judging from the Starcraft: Ghost teaser and the zerg ending movie in BW). I mean if they were really that big they would only need one slice to kill anything, or at least send it flying, but it's still awesome.

I think the Ultralisk is the worst by now. Way too big compared to the Zealot.
Furthmore there is too less recognizeable stuff like eyes and something like a head?
Yes I see the head and the small yellow eyes...but that's WAY to small!
And yeah, always thes massive amount of teeths - please be a little bit more creative Mr. Jack not every Zerg unit needs teeth like a shark.

I'm not sure if you guys are trolling by saying that Ultralisk is way too big, but that WAS the main idea of that picture, to exaggerate the size of Ultra to make it more 'horrifying' I suppose.

That picture is more of a cinematic nature, rather than a picture which focuses on details and reality of how should a unit look (reality in StarCraft universe that is).

The ultra is gorgeous. Every single artwork of this guy is head and shoulders above what blizzard's warc..sc2 team makes. It's like bad cheap cartoon vs real art.

I don't think Blizzard is too far behind, if behind at all. Like I've said it before and I'll say it again, nearly all of my art friends agree, that it is much easier to copy and improve on an already existing thing, than creating something new.

As far as I can tell he's really good at drawing the zerg-y look with their organic carapace, spikes and horns, and their tendons and muscles.

But there are two other races in starcraft. Can he also deliver the high technology, neon lights glowing, shiny gold armor protoss look?
Can he deliver the gritty armour, dirty hard working men, exiles look?

Is he a one trick pony that can only draw the zerg? Or does he have the full capability to work with the whole starcraft universe, not just a third of it.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

I think they lack dynamic to be honest, great texture, great detail, but I can't see the thing he's drawing move in a fast, convincing zerg way.
Life is run, it is dance, it is fast, passionate and BAM!, you dance and sing and booze while you can for now is the time and time is mine. Smile and laugh when still can for now is the time and soon you die!

Wtf with very weird critique like that, i don't see any problem with "dynamic". Wtf with fail-linking to site where you need a reg. Freaking amazing works here, all of them.

Is that propaganda from sc2 official drawers and their friends? I think so.

Everyone should be happy someone decided to make stuff this amazing quality devoted to starcraft.

Oh I don't think any one is doubting the following things: MrJack's ability to draw, his dedication to SC or SC2, any of the other positive things.

But I agree with evanthebouncy here, his pictures look great as standstills, but they are living creatures, while its great the pictures contain lots of details, I have issues when imagining their movements.

Also, drones were wasps in a hostile environment, I expect them to be hardcore.

The best one is the defiler, looking at the how the plague/swarm leaks out of its body is kind of what expected.

damn, look at the size of the ultralisk compared to the zealot facing it... freakishly gigantic!!! I wonder how it burrows...
I can still remember the smell of fried zerglings and hatcheries zapped by Nal_ra's Archons...

Id like to see his rendition of the new Infestor, and I honestly cannot see how something the size of the Ultralisk could burror, and honestly...what would be the point of burrowing Ultra's that late in the game, maybe just to hide your count, but usually you want them on the field right away

Why does it matter if he can only draw existing Zerg? He doesn't work for Blizzard, and he draws these units for entertainment and for our viewing enjoyment, not as concept art for a potential game.

It's a ridiculous reason to call him a one trick pony just because he only puts out incredibly rendered Zerg artwork. Have you ever seen his other artwork?
