Description Last year [link] had an art contest based on Diablo 3. I chose to paint King Leoric from Diablo 1.

Originaly only two winners were chosen, along with a random entry. But they had a runner-up contest, where my piece won.

The 'big' prize was a Tyrael pet in WoW, along with the book 'Swords' signed by the author himself, Ben Boos.
No pet for me, though the book is a really nice addition to my shelf

If you're interested in the book, you can check it out here - [link]

Although I cannot really recognize King Leoric in there, I think this a superb artwork... really awesome painting style. I like it.

You knew, that Leoric was meant to be some kind of skeleton king? Or, in that case I really apologize, you refered to his prehistory (I think, he once ventured into the labyrinth himslef with some fellow knights and later the curse came upon him).

Great piece!

Hehe thanks.

Nah I know, doesn't look anything like King Leoric in Diablo1. There's been a lot of talking about Diablo 3's new colorful approach.. this is more of a tribute to the new art-direction.
