Artist's Comments

First off, this is obviously not an original artwork, all credit and such go to Blizzard and anyone else who was affiliated with the creation of StarCraft, I do not in anyway claim credit (aside from the microsoft paint copy and paste job) for the creation of this piece.

That aside, these pylons are here to charge my avatar, the photon cannon, so it actually will (figuratively) work. Oh yeah, in case you've never played StarCraft the Protoss (race who owns the cannon) can never have enough pylons.

The repetition makes an interesting effect on this simple video game sprite. It reminds us that while we may all have been turned the same by pop culture, we still have a purpose in life. Plus, the colors are well-coordinated together, and they seem brighter on the black background. If one looks at this piece with a practical mindset, it feels unfinished; namely, the fact that you don't have enough pylons. As an avid Starcraft player, you must know that you always need more pylons. At the same time, though, is it necessary for all those pylons to charge a single cannon? It feels overdone.

Or perhaps I'm full of shit, and you just copy/pasted this over and over in MSPaint as a joke. However, it is a properly credited joke.

Not for the single cannon, but for all the ones I have setup all over the place plus and subsequent ones.

You'd better clarify that, then. People may think you're taking the phrase "Not enough pylons" a little too seriously.

There, happy? Now if you don't mind I would like to go back to poking twilight yaks with my psi blades.

You're not a religious fanatic, Ben.

What? I'm talking about the dark templar and they are more monk than religious fanatic.

No no no... zealot is another name for religious fanatic, besides being a Protoss unit.

Dark Templar not zealot. They have a psi blade as well. Why would a zealot be caught dead in the twilight realm?

Well, the tileset for the Dark Templar homeworld in the StarCraft mapmaking program IS called "Twilight"...
