After finding great boredom, and the fact that I can do sexy space stuffs in photoshop, I decided to bug SI and see if he needed/wanted any spiffy art. He was all too eager to have me crank out some various stuffs, including a back image for the minimap slot (which I'll get to once I know the resolution he needs for that o.0) and a splash screen for the mac version, which DW may or may not approve of. Either way, I was bored, here it is.

[center]Of all the images I've seen that have come from you, this is one of the best. Although I think the Wraiths should be green, that's just my preferance.

Not bad but it is a bit big... or maybe I'm just used to the smaller splash screen of OS X Emerald aspect.
Hmm and maybe the v2.0b should have a bevel and emboss effect like the rest of the text?
Edit:
Here's Emerald aspect's if anyone cares.

Well, it IS bigger than the other splash screens. I wasn't sure what the size for the original SCMD2 splash screen was, so I made it 600x450. Turns out the original SCMD2 one was 500x300, so yeah =P. DW, on the other hand, is obsessed with the original SCMD2 one (which doesn't fit the program imo), but then again, he's also obsessed with making everything command line. I'm gonna ask SI for the source so that I can fight with it in XCode till it works =P. I have some plans to save us a lot of mouse clicks over the PC version, and save us some editing space, too. I hadn't originally intended to take up the port, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to manage it, but I'd rather put in all the extra work and make it high quality than have it turn out like crap.
EDIT: Oh, and I tried various bevel/emboss/shadow/whatever overlays on the version text. It just didn't look good no matter what I did to it. I'll try
ing with it some more later.

That Wraith was made by Blizzard, so I assume they made it how they wished. Haplo just colored it blue (it was originally red). Nice use of the Mac StarCraft icon though.

Look closely, the angles are off.

Well I'm just saying that that is Blizzard's problem to fix, considering they made it not Haplo.
And it looks fine to me. Both side guns seem to be pointing out a bit, and the perspective of it isn't that bad.

Yea, I pointed them outward a little bit so that it wasn't just a 4 copies of the same wraith. I just upgraded to Photoshop CS, so I'll be playing with that ;P. I started screwing around trying to make a little pic for the minimap placeholder (128x128) but nothing satisfactory has yet come of it. I have some crap I wanna try, but I think I'm gonna play with 1.12 for a while ;P. Maybe check out this waterfall business.

I think the blue wraiths blend a little too much with the earth, also there is somehting bothering me about that faded wraith in the back, cant put my finger on it though.
Edit: didnt mean to sound so negative, great work, image looks great other then that.
