    Yes me too. And it looks more dangerous the attack.

    Totally agree, the best unit so far.


    You dream all that? or you read it from an official notice?
    Whatever the case, it does not look like an explanation. And if that is the case, they need to change the animated motion
    Menacing look? well not for me.


    Yeah, I try to said that in the first post.

    This image it does not have full resolution, so lets keep that in mind.
    But we can see that is not easy distinguish between zerg units. They have too much spines, claws, wings loosing detail in the body shape.
    I think that Protos buildings had an improvement, looks better.

    Pretty sure that all major concept work was done by Samwise from SC1 to ghost to SC2.
    You know an artist's style does change overtime. Especially when working in an ever changing medium.

    I like the winged lings. I don't much care if they serve a gameplay purpose. I think they look good and give a fresh look that isn't so drastic you can no longer recognize the unit.

    Only changes I would consider is amking the top claws and side fangs a bit smaller. More importantly, extend the face into more of a snout. Long snout makes it look like a voracious wolf. Short face makes it look like the chick at the party you wouldn't talk to even after 10 beers.

    The Ghost models, imo ofc, look awful. Limbs are spider leg thin; completely disproportionate. Those look like sick dogs.

    This image is traficated ! Maybe I am wrong, but I see a difference between the phase canon and the Portal. You see the canon is darker than the Portal. The canon is in the original picture. But the Portal is more shiny, as if it was put on the picture. We just added the shadow. Same thing for the Cybernetic core and the other structure next to it.

    That's just an impression. Hope to be wrong

    Is an official screenshot, the last one.
    All protos buildings had an improvment. They look much better now.

    All buildings 'cept the Phase Cannon. It still looks like before but that is only because they haven't had time to fix it yet.

    IDK, I can see a clear and immediate difference between hydra and ling.

    Don't get me wrong though, hydras don't deserve to be that fugly. Slim them down a little won't ya blizz?

    BTW...We ever see the new lurker redesign since Karune promised it in an up coming screen craft?

    Heh, good for you.. Not me.

    I will put all my opinions about zergs graphics so far.

    Creep: looks good for me..
    Queen: is ok..
    Overlord: is ok.
    Corrupter: awesome
    Zergling: i vote for ghost design, SC2 zerlings looks like lobsters in the game.
    Hydralisk: In the SC2 cinematic video with extra claws look nice, but in the game, with extra spines, etc.. it loose its shape.
    Guardian: Looks very good.
    Roach: is ok.
    Ultralisk: the claws are too large to my taste. I like the ghost style.
    Infestor: I dont like 3 mouth.
    Lurker: I vote for other look.
    Mutalisk: is ok
    Structures: They need some improvement.

    Too much details like claws spines etc.. it makes that watching from afar these units lose their shape.

    Yeah they realy should get rid of the infestor and replace it with a remodeled defiler because the infestor looks like the freakish Forgotten one from Warcraft 3 frozen throne.
