Artist's Comments

My submission for last year's Blizzard fan art competition - a close-up look at the Zerg's lowly worker unit from StarCraft. Oddly enough, there was practically no official artwork of this creature, so I was really free to be quite original. Even its method of locomotion is unclear - I decided to give him large sacks of gas under its "wings," which it probably uses to glide across the ground. Overall I'm rather pleased with the drawing, despite the fact that it didn't come close to countless other submissions in the contest ;) Now I'm curious what StarCraft 2's Drone is going to look like...

did you read the Starcraft's database book for its strain of origin?

a rawr! what have you been up to these days =P
:iconfriendlywarlord:
Thanks!

I actually didn't look into its origin beforehand, all I used was the in-game art (and art of other Zerg creatures of course). Looking into it now, looks like the drone came from "the savage Gashyrr Wasp of Eldersthine." Interesting how much lore goes into Blizzard games =)

I'm making a new RPG Cenarius, and this Drone will help =D

Nice work!

There's a Starcraft art competition to win copies of Starcraft II at [link] (www.starcraftblogger.com/messageboard)

Just thought you might be interested. You can submit as many different pieces of artwork as you want. And there's plenty of different categories (pencil art, photoshop, 3d graphics etc.) of competition that you can win in.

Cheers,
Roger.

at last your the first one to put a deviation with a drone
:iconbari1:
Definetly... nobody ever draws Drones, and they are the coolest zerg after the Scourge.
:iconzerbino:
The character designers didn't draw any artwork depicting the workers of starcraft. We can see in the intro cinematic some kind of SCV and that's all.
Thanks for giving us this good picture.
