Blizzard Gallery Shows Off DF Member's Talent

http://diablofans.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=55&pictureid=1416&thumb=1

Blizzard has tweeted an update at the official fan art gallery at Blizzard.com, which features some pretty nifty new pieces, including subject matter from Starcraft, World of Warcraft (like always!), and Diablo. In particular, a member here by the name of Yngvar now has some of his work hanging in Blizzard's digital vaults!

You may also want to peruse some other work by Yngvar around the DiabloFans Fan Art forum, such as an unforgettably-epic image of the Diablo III Barbarian in all his battle-hardened glory or the Sorceress of Diablo II casting down some baddies in the tombs of Diablo II.

Check out the rest of his artwork at his DeviantArt gallery here! And, if that doesn't satisfy your need for good fantasy art, you may want to look through the Sons of the Storm gallery if you've never seen it before- it contains some awesome and inspirational Diablo-based pieces, although you won't be finding any hidden clues to Diablo III's so far unnannounced fifth class:

Official Blizzard Quote:

5th class is Hellboy!

You're not going to find anything in Wei's personal work. Sorry guys.

Jokes aside, maybe we'll be able to chew on some fifth class scraps as spring at DiabloFans moves quickly to summer and BlizzCon 2010. Fresh art and hopeful speculation- spring is on the horizon- stay tuned to DiabloFans!

But then again, what forums hasn't that artist registered to and shared with?

It's always really great to see Diablo fanart get the recognition it deserves over the insanely disproportionate amount of WoW fanart that's on Blizzard's site.

I'm glad you like it, guys.

I'll try to get some more Diablo art done soon. Hopefully not Blizzard-soon.

*shrugs*

Since, as far as I know and not yet discredited by yngvar, his Diablo art was posted here, it would only make sense that a Diablo site commemorates it. Don't really see why it's a big deal

Great job, Yngvar :thumbsup:

The Diablofans forum is, in fact, the only Diablo fan site forum I've posted those drawings on, but you'll find them on one other fan site that asked for permission to feature them after having seen them on the forums here.

While I'm not a very active member, Diablofans is the site I belong to, so to speak. It's the only video game fan site I visit regularly.

he is ours, and we are proud to have you as part of this community. I remember seeing your Barb piece and I crapped myself (in a good way).
