Are they? Does everyone else think so? Dammit I might have had this one wrong all along too hahaha! I kinda like my interpretation of it still though, the bulbs make it look like a housefly T_T But the bulbs would make more sense based on how the portrait is made haha

I'm with Supwolf on this one, I always thought those very tiny dots were the eyes and not the red bulbs >__>

Lol I'm not sure either how I thought the dragoon looked like that, but I can tell you why I tihnk the zealot looks like that. It's cause I love Star Wars and I had watched Star Wars episode 1 which came out around the time I played Starcraft when I was a little kid, and I thought the zealots looked like nemoidians with there silly hats.

I'm with the red bulbs on this one.

Also, I can't imagine the lower lip on Artanis yet, but I'm kind of scared to try harder to see it. Once I see it...I might never be able to look at him the same way ever again ):

The battlecruiser was messed for me - I guess my monitor was too dark and so I couldn't see the eyes under the visor, so I thought he looked like this:
[image loading]
Haha I used to ask my bro why they made the battlecruiser look so retarded and he's like "wtf are you talking about it looks completely normal." If you lean down really low or angle your monitor you might see it better, because the eyes under the visor disappear when it gets too dark.

This is very interesting and funny hehe, I love the impressions of the goon! Now that I've seen some different interpretations I can clearly see how they could have been seen that way haha :D OMG that goldeneye one is hilarious! Never seen that one before LOL


I was like "what", until I looked at the unmarked portrait from way below my LCD monitor.....LOOOOOOOL, it totally does look like a some retarded guy, the "eye" appears at a really low angle...

so fucking funny

For me
- Shuttle's portrait: A smiling face with funny sounds
- Dragoon's portrait: A freaky green unintelligible Protoss face with muffled sounds
- Zeratul's portrait: Looks like some dude so ugly he had to hide his face - or he's just in solitary confinement.
And yes, the lower lips on Protoss face that makes it look like it's smiling. I've seen it from the first day playing BW and I guess I will never be able to unsee it.

Yeah but the SC2 portrait is way different from the BW one, matter of fact I think its way too different from the BW one, it doesn't look like either one came from the other.

Does the Turret Controller count as interesting? It still amazes me that it took about 5-6 years before I saw it first time.

Oh wow, the red bulbs being the drone's eyes just blew my mind as well, thought that they were the little yellow ones >.> Oh and ingame for some reason I've never seen the drone as a creature with arms, I just see the two claws as it's head. So it's kinda just a body with a huge mouth that grabs minerals and stuff lol;
