    Default Vulture picture - Easter egg

    This is my first thread, so here goes: To begin with, I have no idea where I should have posted this, but just felt to share it with people. I don't even know if it has been seen before, something it might have, but I couldn't find anything about it.

    If you look at the portrait of the Vulture, the guy on the picture have a tattoo on his left shoulder. Isn't that the emblem of the Horde from World of Warcraft?

    And when I'm first at it, I'll add the well known look-alike-portraits of Chris Metzen and Dustin Browder aswell.

    Chris Metzen:

    The actual Goliath portrait (not the Merc one) is, I think, that of a guy named "Brian Sousa" or something like that...It's someone at Blizzard.

    Kudos to Arkceangel for the Terran avatar and sig!

    Wow, the Vulture pilot sure has one righteous mohawk. Speaking of which, I really hope the Vulture pilot is still the same cocky, smug bastard he was in the original Starcraft. The way he would say "sir" was so devilishly condescending.

    I think he designs the tilesets. Unfortunately, neither he nor Browder can replace the original's Goliath portrait.

    Also, in an unrelated note, the 'Fire and Fury' cinematic seemed to be very Transformers (Michael Bay film) inspired. The music follows closely to the 'Arrival to Earth' track by Steve Jablonsky, just with a few notes changed to sound original, but I recognised it immediately. Also, Warfield's augmented arm was a reference to Ironhide's cannon. It's possible that the artist 'M. Koiter', to whom the cinematic was dedicated to, may've really liked the film. Either that or the design team and the music department did.
