    BlizzCast Episode 6 has been released! Karune talks to Browder and Samwise about the how units are developed from their initial concept to their final form, particularly the Thor. Also includes some nice unit portrait renders, both animated and stills. It also includes a 'Day with a Dev', 'Bridging the Gap' in Diablo4 and a fan-based Q&A...

    In the sixth epic episode of BlizzCast, we spend a day with a developer and find out what life is like for World of Warcraft Lead Tools Programmer Monte Krol. Next, we take a look at StarCraft II unit design from concept to creation with Senior Art Director Samwise Didier and Lead Game Designer Dustin Browder. In our third segment, Bashiok spends some time with Anthony Rivero, senior artist for Diablo III, and discusses "bridging the gap" in the series’ character design. Bornakk wraps the episode up by answering some questions from the community.


    Read and listen to the entire BlizzCast

    Yep, Jon didn't have time to make a new one, and I don't have time right now, so if anyone's able to make one for BlizzCast 6, that'd be great.

    Took me a little more time than I though it would take, but I think I turned out pretty good.

    Sorry about it, Im a photoshop newb and I realize the quality's not awesome.

    Quality not awesome? It's better than the last one, not even mentioning your choice of background screenshot.
    You made the frame thinner and the Blizzcast box smaller and transparent, giving the background more space. Nice.

    Is Lombar hired?

    I'll have to listen to the Blizzcast later, because my mom lent me her Moby CD, but I'll be interested in hearing from Sam again.

    By making the border thinner you will prevent it from blending in nicely with the forum background. It's a gradient for a reason.

    Well, it's not like I edited the previous image, I did a new one and it turned up like that.. there's an easy fix to that tho.. put the background color same as forum background color.. let me try it

    EDIT: There, replaced the pic.. now it should blend perfectly with the portal colors, since the back color is the same than the portal now :eek:

    Why experiment when there's a template?
    Also helps keep it uniform.
