Unit Close up Compilation

Yes to the Wraith.

As for the VIking air, with the current model I think an attack like the Valkyrie would fit better.

I forgot where, but some of the sc2 art guys said they wanted the viking's air mode to be more like the valkyrie than a fighter like the wraith. I'm guessing in lore, it's more of a heavy long-range missile platform than a true dogfighting fighter. (like a Y-Wing, rather than X-wing, in star wars)

I like~
I'm still iffy on the Archon and Carrier though.
Carrier I can get used to, but everytime I see the Archon, I want to cry.
My favorite unit was so because he looked like raw energy with nothing like clothes to hinder him. But now he has clothes(Or rather, he IS the clothes) that make him look big and bulky instead of sleek and majestic.
And the attack animation.... ugh. Shake my hand? LOL ZAPPED

My favorites:

Protoss - Immortal (just a really cool looking unit; blows the stalker / dragoon out of the water)
Terran - Viking (the transformation is impressive and the ground form is surprisingly cool)
Zerg - Corrupter (the tentacles are very cool)

heh, i'm totally against the current immortal model. the artwork kicks arse, but the ingame model just doesn't cut it. it's not curvy enough. sorry immortal, you just don't fit my physical needs.

Hmm, that's valid. I don't mind its lack of curviness, though. I think it looks strong - not as delicate as some of the other Protoss units (which makes sense considering the unit). It also has a strong Egyptian vibe to it which I appreciate. I also really like how it's shields look. Everything about the unit seems strong to me when I see it in game.

I think you guys are going to like what I did with the Zerg. Not spoiling the surprise though.

I love all the current in game models, they are very pleasing to the eye in my opinion and still hold that Starcraft Sci-fi feel to them.

I don't understand when over the years people have said it's not gritty enough like the first Starcraft. That mainly has to do with the game engine than anything else. I mean of course it's gonna look more vibrant and detailed because we have better technology now.

Graphics wise, I'd take the SC2 models over the SC1 models any day.

Am I the only one that thinks the viking in air mode looks nothing like a space fighter? It's way too broad I would expect a space fighter to have a leaner design but oh well... </rant> btw is the wraith still going to appear in single player?

Erm... why would it need to be leaner? Space is a vacuum. You don't need aerodynamics.
