Was Blizzard on crack when they hired Metzen?

Metzen isn't Samwise level. Samwise owns all blizzard's concept artists, and that's why he is the artistic director. But Metzen is a good artist. And it's right, a concept art is more a concept than an artwork.

What...you got to be kidding me
Thank God Metzen did almost all the art work for wc2...it was way better then the crappy cartoon shit they had for wc3.

Not to mention that despite the fact that you think your some drawing god...you are not the second coming of divinci

Metzen is a great artist. Sure, maybe compared to some of the other concept drawings for Warcraft III his stuff isn't as amazing, but $5 and a pizza says that all his stuff is better than yours stormrider, even his earlier works. Also, I thought Metzen was the Artistic Director? Maybe not, but doesn't it say he is in: "The Art of Warcraft"?

Oh, and why do people keep calling stormrider wormskull? I'm not kept up-to-date on this site too much, so could someone explain that?

It's not important. Just a former alias.

The reason Metzen isn't as good is because most people rip more of Samwise's work (primus)
#21
Also, Metzen doesn't colour alot of his work either. That might be another reason why alot of people prefer Samwises artwork.

Oh, GreyArchon, thank you for answering that for me. I know who wormskull is, I just wasn't sure if stormrider was another account of his or not.

Booyakashaaa.


oh my! fighting in a thong and some leather wrapped around your breasts is always the best choice.. if you're in a game. -_-

yeah, she got a spear and some muscles, but if you poke her, she will fall and break that back. whoops. i'm sure she's very dangerous. as dangerous as toiletpaper. :roll:

I can't even look on that picture more. too much errors. *crawls back to the almighty cave of realism*

Hmmmmactually, I was busy proving you wrong on the sexy part.

Now for the defenseless part, I'd use this picture:

you kind of missed proving me wrong that she wasn't a image of sheer sexist samwise.

and the warden.. i'm sure you have seen the other pics samwise has done of the warden. and i'm sure you have seen that she is as the others: tiny waist, big breasts, big booty and hips. as usual..

You may love people that exaggerate their pictures, I just find it very disturbing. and I'm growing tired of playing game after game and almost never see a normal man or woman. there is just muscular guys and tiny women, that still can fight for some reason..
I want a real game with realistic look for the fantasy-characters!
oh wait.. Morrowind. I missed that one. ^^

Nono, no, this was the part where you were supposed to say; "You're right Arch. Those pictures prove that I was generalizing. Please accept the offering of my undieing soul as an excuse."

Read your script.

ooooo! I'm sorry! *reads the script*
You're right Arch. Those pictures prove that I was generalizing. Please accept the offering of my undieing soul and my minions as an excuse. and some cookies and Metzens original drawings.
