Infested Terran

[knifed91]

good job! you get a kiss on the radio :)

[Siphahru]

I think I shat enough bricks to build a house..

[Disterric23]

are you using a tablet for SBP? if so which kind? thanks

[darkmankill1]

i cant drawn for shit. hire this guy for blizzard

[pontus515]

This is the first speed paint I've seen done by someone like yourself, working at Blizzard Entertainment, wich I respect over all game companies for this high amount of quallity and skill among the employees.

I see you change from program to program during your work. How would you explain the benefit from each programs you're using?

[WSLaFleur]

Luke, pardon my ignorance, but i don't know what happens at 1:36 here and i'm dying to understand, it looks like you manage to select all of the background or all of the figure. what's going on there, why do you do it?

[MrJackArt]

@WSLaFleur Yep, that's basically what I do - nothing fancy, I just make sure that my linework has a hard edge around it and use the magic wand.

[huyked]

I'm in awe of people with such drawing skills as you, as well as the patience it takes to finish a drawing such as this. Thanks for sharing the video.

[teo1th]

what type of brush did you use ?

[teo1th]

what resolution did you use in sketchbook ? and what brush?

[Czajnikowiec]

Hey, youre great!! Im trying to draw some "artworks" of Starcraft, but i have problem with zerg's skin colour. Do you have some tips on 1:40??

Thanks!

Great art

[6yXJI0]

borderlands style

[1john1992]

How does a tablet work? Like when you're writing your just scribbling down on a blank white thing, so how do you know where to continue, say if you lifted the pen or something.

[TheSuperWannabe]

the song you put here was beautiful. I know it's not NIN for sure. What is it actually called? :o

[orzech1080]

You are an a amazing artist, Sir. But strangely I like your masterpieces more before you isolate them on a white background. That leftover dark backgrounds give them more depth imho. Keep up the good work! :)

[Spart117cdc]

it looks a little like a Flood Hunter from Halo 3

[warior531]

Spawn More Overlords

[todeswalzer123]

what´s the name of the song ?

[IchiJewSan]

MY wife for hire?

[thegxti]

wow! how many details!

[Blackpanfa]

Why can't I draw like this?! Lol, that is insane dude.

[MrFuc100]

holy **** you are a PRO!!!

[Alkoholwioslaidziwki]

Amazing job man!

[Tomasz3kk]

zaje-kurw@-biste !!!

[Adam9392]

Hey man great drawing , i was wondering if you could reccomend a good drawing tablet to begin attempting some computer artwork.

Thanks

[mostyghostly]

The music goes perfectly with the art

[83679]

wow that must have taken soo much patience

[kriscarson]

I dont know how long it would be, but if you had the regular-speed version to watch, Id sit through the whole thing with my jaw on the floor. Consider uploading it, Id watch it over and over!

[conkernog]

@MrJackArt If you havnt already you should submit this to the blizzard fan art gallery!! its epic!

[loadedbros]

lol they kinda look like warped chaos marines from warhammer 40k

[oftenlostinwhat]

NOT ENOUGH OVERLORDS

[superpyromaniac]

you know, i miss the look of the old infested terrans (on the little screen on the bottom), but i gotta say the new ones look epic! oh and GREAT job btw. did you use photoshop at all?

[R3D991]

Fucking Sick![fullstop]!!!!!

[hhjk377]

good lord that looks good

love the hulkin look to it

had to check it out after seein this on dev art

[linkuei83]

[WowThatsSoKewl]

[HdeadLife]

is there any chance you could send me this? =O it looks amazing

[seaxrising2]

dame good god lol it is cool

[that1dude0092]

"Live for the Swarm!"

[GRUNTS2009]

How long did it take you to make that?

[Fotrezas]

squishy ^^

[killjoyproductions16]

put my drawing to shame! and i can draw goooooooooooooood

[hellzbomber]

I suppose you use a tablet when you draw...

is there any lag on your tablet? I know there's quite a bit on mine...

[MrJackArt]

@hellzbomber No, I've never had a problem with lag on my tablet, except if I happen to be working on a really huge piece with complicated brushes or something.

[hellzbomber]

@MrJackArt

Oh, thanks for the response. Are tablets supposed to have any lag at all? Mine's from the stone age, and it's giving me hell >.>

[ZaChKiLlSiNhAlO]

@MrJackArt you know im amazed that you can do this... well i guess but i couldnt do this if i had like a month to do it :-\ well i guess everybodies good at different things....

[BlaiseMastronardi]

@hellzbomber lag is usually because of ram issues. try defragging your computer and it'll probably run faster overall. takes some time, but it works. if that isn't good enough you just need more memory.

[hellzbomber]

@BlaiseMastronardi Lol, I truly don't think it's ram issues for my comp. I think it's just because I'm using a stone age tablet. I just wanted to know if it was universal.

[sabreface10]

let me ask you what program did you use to make this and did you have to make any sketches before you performed the actual drawing?

[MrJackArt]

@sabreface10 It's drawn in Sketchbook Pro, and yeah, there is a very light rough underdrawing that I'm working over for the linework, and I coloured it in photoshop.

[sabreface10]

@MrJackArt it would be cool if you made your own zerg creature half robot and half infested type of thing. just saying

[Remember1942]

Dude , you`re gifted

[JMLJ133]

Starcraft 1 Infested Terran sucks but Starcraft 2 Infested Terran rock. why? Well it is just that the Starcraft 1 versions were like your infested suicide bomber but in SC 2 they don't explode, instead the shoot and that's what I expected them to do in SC 1

[RapidK9]

Yo dude any chance you can make one of Marrowgar from Icc? :)

[kainniak1]

i wish that infested tarren didn't suck now so a pointless "spell" how gay is that fucking summons in starcraft 2 worse idea eva

[m3divh]

hey man you have something on your face..

[m3divh]

hey man you have something on your face..

[Armalizilto]

I think the Infested Terran in any shape and size is one of the scariest character in gaming history and in artwork too!

[whiplash1515]

do u make this artwork for blizzard or do u make it for any profit cause let me tell you.. i'd love to buy a dark templar one to either put as my backround or hang it in my office... GREAT JOB!

[Mariehanerrific]

my eye spy an Starcraft II desktop background ;)

[matthewzzxc]

this is a little sad i mean look at the poor rine ):

[ingarsss]

@matthewzzxc

He (It) is brainwashed anyways.

Ps. Marines were criminals (again brainwashed (but not so muched)) to work for domminion or cofedaract... I think Raynnors Riders hire them.

PPS. someone correct me if im wrong.

[ShadowDragon00000]

Awesome detail! Do you have the final picture up for viewing?

[jzone2006]

Yes he does, check the description :P.

[VsShredder]

Sick... :-)

[regaleks]

such a magnificent creature! 4/5 on the drawing

10/10 on the audio, what was it called?

anyone?

TY!

[jamster48]

what makes them explode anyway?

[Heretopost]

@jamster48 Stress.

[jamster48]

@Heretopost lol

[scmaster53]

that was absolutely incredible! great job

[KarasuKohai]

A Masterpiece! Bravo!

[martver12]

i h8 at sc1 when they only can explode i hoped that they would shot or like infest other units like "infested zealot".

[ingarsss]

Hmm... its sucks not to be a ghost when infected... :-/

[Draknfyre]

@ingarsss

Not all Ghosts become like Kerrigan. She was a special case, and was changed specifically. Any other Ghost would just end up like this.

[ingarsss]

@Draknfyre

actualy, overmind was talking about a physonic thing. All ghosts are physonic, so why would the zerg waste captured humans... so ... yeah you were half-right...

[Draknfyre]

@ingarsss

All of them have PSI abilities, but they must be dampened to keep them under control. Kerrigan was stronger than most, and she was specially handled to become the queen to control over all of the broods. His comment was suggesting that Ghosts retained free will when they were infested.

[3dgod2]

too fast moving, i think.

But it's realy one of the best painting about starCraft

[JVIikel]

i gotta say you probably have my favorite rendering technique

[FroztByte4]

OMG this is tychus findlay!!!

[imzadi2009]

Awsome!!!! but i wounder if every infested terran's face is the same 8o

[roundup123]

Woww the BEST STARCRAFT DRAWING EVER!!

[LuxonKilleR]

omfg dude ur awesome the best draw of sc than i have ever saw 5/5 keep going!(if u can make of kerrigan it would be really awesome)

[crazy4sian]

FOR THE SWARM!

[TDuD3]

omg ur a badass man, really amazing design xDD

[zeck6669]

[STarCRAFT4BRITS]

[cownerd1]

[Zoer666]

holy shit.. that is soo epic :O

[isaac4lego]

great!!!

but i hate that music!!!!!

[SxiaNXi]

Epic! 5/5! The music rly goes well with it!

[Danjen03]

Neat! How long have you been drawing?

[slayer1561]

that is so cool that must have tooken hours to draw i give vid 5 stars

[nimox57]

WOW!! fantastic drawing!!

[ZerglingRushkeke]

HOW THE HELL DID YOU DRAW THAT

[Alchemist0xFF]

Whow! That's great, thanx for sharing. How do you draw that from a blank page without any sketches?

[cubbex]

WOw

I had an orgasm

[TheHeavyMg]

Guess what? >.>

This wasn't on fast forward, He was actually drawing that fast. He just said it took him longer so we all wouldn't feel bad. xD

[4txx]

sick talent

[PsychicAzn]

Starcraft came waaay way before Halo came out.

[Icanwatchflagedvids]

@PsychicAzn 3 years.

[LordNetsua]

amazing job!

[hockeykid323]

looks like the flood thing from halo

[TheSwarmaster]

Chris Metzen's got nothing on you. Do you work for Blizzard, yet?

[FreecapZ]

the swarm ate ur mother ahahahahaah

[LoneSoldier9]

LIVE FOR THE SWARM!

[PandaKill3r]

[AstroBoy55555]

*sigh* read the description.

[PandaKill3r]

yeah... I noticed later lol

my bad ^^

[AstroBoy55555]

LOL no problem

[DavionXY]

mAAAAN!! what tablet do you have?

[toasterder]

Skilled labour... not anyone can do it... (lest they spent countless hours... and months to years honing such a technique)....

[ccc7711]

aww man i wish i could do this

[Imagination59]

that is raw dude

[Ambermen]

LIVE 4 DESTROY

[michael1400pizdec]

its "live for the swarm"

[sepie]

omg man i love your drawings more than anyone elces...being a mecha freak and all

[NarutoPHC]

Nice.

[Tomahawk52]

wow? this artwork is amazing.

[Kamfrenchie]

It's (almost) worth being infested if after that you get drawed that well :)

[toadking07]

That's a pretty intense piece of work, and seeing the process behind it, amazing.

[eitenjosh]

i love your stuff man..

it's inspiring

[suxiv]

More of this please : )

[haloCE6]

lol why do all you guys type so long god :l

[dragovic90srb]

Da Vinci ? Leonardo is that you ? :D

Brilliant! XD

[palidan99]

hey when are you going to post a tutorial mr jack? this stuff is awesome.

btw what brushes did you use to draw in sketchbook and paint in photoshop?

[Afrochapina]

gross! I mean, neat!

[FootClanLeader]

cool greasy cheese monster!

[damkay00]

absolutly nice, including the music, i think infected terrans were overestimated, because they ROck and roll.

[AeternusAnima]

However, WH has never been a popular series, while SC took away the nights of many helpless gamers. WH just had some sort of sucess with Dawn of War.

[electricbayonet2]

Uhh...I beg to differ. Warhammer is quite popular and well known. Sure, it hasn't reached the same fame as Starcraft, but it also rakes in millions every year with the Space Marines alone.

[ffPANCHO]

Wow...good stuff

[valide1]

Pretty good picture, but SC will never be as good as WH40k. Chaos marines > Infested Terran on all accounts.

[thebestoza]

Being a hardcore SC fan, I feel a great urge to flame you, but you're probably just mis-informed, or some brain washed 13 year old. I'll discard that last option, since your comment is well written, and has proper grammar.

So, I'll just shine a light on you and say, Infested Terran is not a race, like Chaos Marines are. Infested Terran is a unit of the Zerg, which, on your WH40K terms, would be something like the Tyranids. Needless to say, both games are absolutely different... (ran outta space)

[electricbayonet2]

Boy, you're presumptuous. In that case, I'll hold that Blizzard copied the vast majority of their concepts from other sources, specifically Warhammer 40k. The Zerg? A combination of Tyranids and Xenomorphs from Alien. Marines? They're modified Space Marines. Infested Terran? Take your pick of Possessed Marines or Obliterators. Both are former Marines with their flesh assimilating their armor and weapons.

[Ym1r]

Both are great games to play, but I prefer Starcraft because it chose to balance it's game. Unlike Dawn of War where certain units are overpowered to shit. Though there are concepts in DoW that I love, Space Marines shooting while running one of my favorite things :].

[electricbayonet2]

DoW had problems that Starcraft didn't. Such as, entire factions were used to counter other factions. That was the main issue.

Doesn't matter, anyway. I was talking about the Warhammer 40k franchise, not Dawn of War, despite the latter being the most commonly known variation to denizens of the internet who would otherwise not know about the franchise.

[thebestoza]

(cont.) and can't really be compared in many aspects, apart from, say, artwork and overall aspect of the units. Apart from that, it's all really very different. Gameplay, platforms (I mean, one is a PC game, the other a board game), and much, if not all, of the strategy.

Have a good day.

[Williamxelray]

Except for the fact that Blizzard had a huge lawsuit put against them by the creators of WH40K because they stole all concepts of the game. Yeah, alright. And I played both games, I'm not saying infested Terran are a race. Just saying that SC got all unit details off of Warhammer, minus very few. Also the strategy follows pretty similar rules. Believe it or not, even if its a PC vs Tabletop. Either way, better or not, SC is a major rip from WH40K

[thebestoza]

I stand corrected. I still like SC better, nontheless.

[MrJackArt]

I'm afraid the Blizz vs GW lawsuit thing is entirely urban legend.

Not going to get into another discussion about it, just saying.

[Williamxelray]

Alright, well, there is no validity of the lawsuit. I'll give you that, it makes sense to me as of why. Blizzard might or might not of been working with GW on a game, yet GW didn't allow access to the Warhammer concept, meaning Blizzard did a mass amount of relabeling and produced the game. The fact that its very much like the game and many ideas are based off of it is the main point of the whole thing.

And if you didn't want a discussion, why bring it up?

[MrJackArt]

To correct you about the lawsuit.

And the GW game they may or may not've been working on was (supposedly) what they turned into Warcraft anyway, it had nothing to do with SC.

(in fact, they were originally also going to do a sci-fi rts which was part of the Star Wars universe, but that obviously fell through (not sure why, but I can't say I'm complaining).

[Hwkns88]

What's the piano song in the background?

[MrJackArt]

Ah, I'm not entirely sure, it was just something I chose through audioswap since youtube noticed the NIN track I had originally...

[robert9736]

I think its Liszt Piano Concerto No. 1, First Movement

[NPC919]

This is... Amazing... Just 3 hours?? This would take me weeks and weeks and endless weeks to produce just the lining! I mean I'm only 13, but duuude!!! Epic!!!

DUDE!!! :D

[jazzistoobad]

HOLY COW! Fantastic. Love the colored version in deviantart.

[ModeLTU]

Your pics are damn great man.Drone and Hydra look really awesome :] You got talent for sure (tho I'm sure you don't need random people telling you that) :P

[pum88]

great great piece of art, just amazing

[isso09]

This is ridiculously good.

How is your line art so precise? Did you ever do a construction sketch in your earlier years? Did you use reference for this?

Also, are you left-handed?

And do you ever post tutorials?

Thanks!

[fredrikhcs]

"about 3 hours including the bit I didn't show at the start." So perhaps he did a sketchier freehand drawing first and put it "beneath" the drawing surface of his drawing tablet.

[fredrikhcs]

I hope that's how he did it, anyway. I don't think I could ever learn to draw that precisely just like that. :/ :P

[MrJackArt]

Yeah, there was a rougher stage underneath that probably took about 10-15 minutes; I'll try to remember to show that next time as well :D

I always forget to start recording, so it was lucky that I started when I did...

[Bots30]

Hey man, first of all, great work!! Second, you should put up something with commentary on how you work. In high speed it's kinda hard to see all of what you're actually doing.

[WackoBobby]

Hey, nice work!

By the way, what was the size of the original canvas that you painted this in?

[MrJackArt]

Thanks!

about 3500px wide, I think.

[undermoonlightglow]

What software did you use to record this? You work is amazing. Thank you.

[MrJackArt]

Program called Copernicus... It's a bit annoying since I generally have to put the video together in Quicktime but it's the only mac program I could find that seemed suitable.

[nihilus163]

omfg, you didn't miss one little detail! That is amazing!

[OmnipotentO]

holy shit that is some sexy work. fav'd 5/5

(also fuck you, youtube)

[klawzee]

lol, audio disabled.

[Kilmori]

Yup, too bad it's death with blazes, I'd like the sound.

[klawzee]

Yeah, no Aleksi's and no Zarigus' as well. too bad.
