That's a nice capture, Alevice. How did you do it?
its an idle animation from the game, i just managed to get a gif from it. you can extract the smk rom the original and see for yourself haha.
based from a frame of that anim, i tried to idenfitfy the shape of his body flat. used red on the outlines for minor comic book like shading/texture. he seems to have a chin piece similar to samwise's zeratul concept art. i highligghted it in dark red.
it seems metzen envisioned all protoss looking more like tassadar, somewhere during development the semi sunken eye sockets and tiger like stripes became part of just tassadar. he seems to bre wearing a poece of cloth on his forehead rather than being a distinct head fringe.
Tbh, aside from the portraits, Im not sure there is art publicly available for old young artanist. I will see if i can find anyhthing, but no promises haha
The pictures I posted are old art by Chris Metzen and Samwise Didier, the original concept artists for SC1. Most of the art came from the instruction booklets, back when those things wwere the bomb (Diasblo 1 had among the best).
It's fine. I generally don't like to copy things. Just get some of it and add my own 'take' on the subject. I donno, it's just I feel down when I work on trying to duplicate something.

Wow this is phenomenal work! I love how you have some of your own elements in there but it's so true to the original as well. I feel like the animations have a lot of his personality. The color temperature in his eyes adds a very classic feeling that all Protoss in SC2 lack.
My favorite lighting is the last one btw. I do still like the others though.

While it is a very beautiful model, this Aldaris, I think that this "mouth" should be removed, even if it seems to be present in the original...
Is just... out of place, it doesn't even seem a Protoss to me... More similar to a human with a mask :)

We'll see when the colors come in. I might add some more details to make it less 'human'.

Zealot silo. One thicker, the other slimmer. Which one's better?

Really nice! It does seem Tassadar from SC1 Cinematics (if my memory does not fail me).
The Zealot silo is nice the slim one, since, while familiar, I think Protoss should actually look more "alien" :)
How are your progress with the Aldaris portrait?

I'm keeping it at the back of my mind, so my subconscious can work it out.
His face just doesn't look right to me without a 'mouth', so called.

@GnaReffotsirk: Go
I'd go skinnier personally. Too bulky and it'll just look like the SC2 zealot.
Boy does that Tassadar look great. I'm so glad you understand his crested head. A lot of people think it's a helmet/headpiece which drives me nuts.
@Alevice: Go
Ok I don't know what to think about Aldaris now. I've never seen that. He has the biggest face ever now!

I associate tassadar and aldaris' face to something like the old metallica skulls. XD
Where'd you get those artHs man? Tingles the imagination.
edit: Hey, Al? if you got the time, can you get one for Artanis?
