    posted a message on Fiery Runes II: Series III - Previews

    With the end of the 2nd series in Fiery Runes II, comes previews for the next one. Below is a preview ive done over the week on deviantART for certain aspects of the next series.


    _____________________________________________________________________________




    _____________________________________________________________________________


    The next iteration in the Fiery Runes II Series with some more necromancer flair and a dash of Kanai's Cube to add to this.

    A nice balance (no pun intended) for things to come.

    Here's a preview of the runes in both Locations style and traditional styles for the new series.
    This new Series will debut Monday July 10th 2017!

    posted a message on Fiery Runes II Malthael: Soulfyre's End

    Less than 4 years ago the Fiery Runes changed and became more "souly" with Diablo 3's Expansion: Reaper of Souls. Over the course of that time I've change and broke the traditional mold of the Black screen and rune-circle with cut-out artwork. With the start it began with Malthael and now ends with him.

    Bestiary II #3: Death Maiden by Holyknight3000 From Sanctuary to the Nexus: The 7th Anniversary by Holyknight3000 From Soulfyre to Infernal: Azmodan by Holyknight3000

    With the Rise of the Necromancer Pack out now it's time to break the runes down into their Essence...

    Updates soon and thank you for enjoying this series as much as I have.

    posted a message on Wallpaper Art - Calendar #34: Uni May - Never Alone (Necromancer)


    Links: deviantART - twitter


    Featuring Stephen Oakley's: Never Alone.


    Sorry I missed out on April. Had PC issues as well as other things that kept me from making anything during April.


    But with that as the Necromancer Beta has gone live off and on for the last few weeks it was time to make a calendar theme based on that. This is that result! Enjoy!

    With the early leak of some impressive dare i say epic art of an old fan favorite class, the Necromancer. I thought I\'d toss a quick wallpaper for this art. As I have in the past with other classes in the past.

    I wasnt sure to make it Diablo 2 or Diablo 3 but as Rhykker has stated already in speculation. Since there is a male and female of the class in this artwork you pretty much can associate it with Diablo 3.

    The Artwork is by the Current new Art Director for Diablo 3: John Mueller.

    I\'ll make more wallpapers as time goes on as well as a clearer version of this one should a larger image file be released later.

    Thank you and enjoy.

    posted a message on Celebrating 8 Years of Wallpapers


    Posted on: deviantART - diabloii.net - facebook - twitter - reddit - battle.net


    It's been a long road so far. Many people I probably cannot count have seen my wallpaper art in some way via the multitude of websites and search engines over the years. If your a fan of Diablo I'm sure you have at least seen one of my wallpapers. To all of you truly thank you for enjoying each and every wallpaper I put out, hell even the ones you hate :). I know i have had great walls and stinkers but all-in-all this is a hobby done out of love for the game world, the community and beyond.

    I use to share my wallpapers with my late father years back he was so proud of them. I wish he could see what I've done these days. It's been over 8 years since the cinematic reveal of Diablo 3 at the World Wide Invitational in 2008. I still remember the very very laggy stream and almost missing the first few seconds of the reveal. I remember scowering the diablofans and diabloii.net forums when people were looking the teasers over with all the clues and hints. All the fun and guesswork and theories that were being done.

    I remember having an idea after my first simple wallpaper I made just from the hype. A wallpaper which looks horrible these days but meh. Had to start somewhere. But i still remember having a silly idea with a runeword for a banner on my forum posts that would be in the corners just as an experiment. Figure I'd make the runes look like they were simply on fire. I had a very old graphics program then. But the simple idea looked so cool i was like do I want to go all in and not look back? After a few days maybe longer I did the same effect to all 33 of the original diablo 2 runes. And just like that the Fiery Runes were born and hit the ground running.

    So sorry I went down memory lane here. Hopefully I can find that old lost banner art or have some of it somewhere so you guys can see where it all began. But thank you for enjoying my work after all this time. If your still reading this then thank you too. This stuff all means the world to me and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

    Also Thank you to the many fansites that have come and gone and are still with us that have shared/featured my wallpapers as well over the years. Also thank you to the Diablo 3 Community Management Team members current and past as well. You guys are all awesome.

    Last but by no means least I'd like to also say thank you to the countless number of fan artists and artists who have allowed me to use their works in my wallpapers. I tried so hard to make sure you were credited and linked back to as best as possible.

    Thank you seriously everyone for 8 proud years working on these wallpapers.

    This is really nice! I like it!

    thank you!

    Quote from Nachten»

    Thats a nice one. I always liked your paintings but this one is something special. *thumps up,

    Kepp up the good work.

    Thanks I appreciate that! I was trying to make it look like multiple screenshots kinda blended but they started to actually become almost seamless or at least appear to be so I kept at it.

    Quote from Rightlol»

    Really cool looking, not really something I'd have on my wall but nonetheless it's still impressive.

    Thanks, Yeah it started out to try and be unconventional and eventually became a tribute. So it went from being meaningful attempt to really meaningful in a lot more ways.

    Posted on: deviantART - diabloii.net - reddit - twitter -battle.net


    This little wallpaper took over a year to make. I revamped and redid the borders at the top and bottom so many times I lost count. I stopped and restarted repeatedly, and also took breaks from it when I just couldn't get it the way I was envisioning it.


    With the recent sad and unfortunate events from the shooting in Orlando I got inspiration to complete it as a new wallpaper that most would not expect and as a great tribute to those who lost their lives.

    posted a message on Wallpaper: Diablo 3 Season 6: Cosmic


    Posted on diabloii.net - deviantART - twitter - Reddit -battle.net


    Featuring Diablo 3 - Being of Energy by neM1

    This wallpaper stemmed from the cosmic wings. I was trying to make a wallpaper to best represent the season and had a hard time trying to get what I wanted. Not really much you can do about a patch with mostly cosmetics, transmogs, wings & a portrait frame.

    As I added the wings I went ahead and made the bars on the top and bottom all starry like the wings, and then the piece that finished it all off was the beautiful fan art by neM1. After that what you see before you just came together. I hope you like and please give this artist some love. This is one of the best Archon fan art pieces I've seen and it's been around for 4 years.

    posted a message on Wallpapers: Calendar Uni April: King Kanai and The Final Confrontation



    Since there really isn't any art for King Kanai I went with my best screenshot of him back in march for the event. That is my crusader hiding behind the calendar with the tyrael wings.

    I thought I would make a calendar based on Kanai. So with this I changed the art behind the calendar numbers and put the cube in.

    With that this is also dedicated to Kevin Kanai Griffith's memory.

    I think the art by Tnounsy speaks for itself here and I just added a wallpaper format that i use to compliment it.

    Hope you like, and check out Tnounsy's fan art its a great piece.
