Kallizk posted a message on Happy Anniversary Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls (Wallpaper)Posted in: Diablo Wallpaper and OS ArtHow i feel you, the death of loved ones should be celebrated as a reminder of what they were and not mourned as a reminder of what we lost... the wallpaper is awesome, i'm sure your dad would dig it ^^

I loved how this image turned out so with the help of CS3 I used some tools and made the image a larger size. I had this 800x800 image on my desktop background and realized how awesome it was as a wallpaper.
So I figured it has been a couple years since I made a thank you wallpaper. So this one is for the fans of my wallpapers. Thanks for the comments, support and help over the past 3 years. I really could not have done it without you guys.
Here's to many more years after the games release for wallpapers, art and fan fiction!

Not to be confused as a "Diablo IV" just the 4th fiery runes diablo piece. This piece was edited from the d3 box art given to us from the blizzcon 2011 press kit. I had to painstakingly paint out the flaming 3 bars from the bottom part of the Diablo III logo on the to of our dear friends forehead. Then i flipped when i got enough from one site tweaked some cloning to make it match.
Thus the final result you see before you. Hope you like. I will be making two more wallpapers over the next few days. One more FRS related and another just as a wallpaper.

You never know what you can find on google. Yep that's where I found this super high quality image of big red. Since I was lacking a new headshot and I thought when i found this super size version of this image I had to do it.
Its such a nice simple wallpaper I love it to death. The date below the logo I still mark for the reveal date anniversary. If anyone wants the undated version of this let me know I'll post it up.
And sorry this was delayed a few days I was terribly busy this week. I hope you all like. My personal 3 year and FRS 3 years will be coming up in the next couple weeks. See you then!

Greetings all. I spent more time on this wallpaper that the last few. Since the beta had been announced I decided to dedicate this wallpaper to the announcement for the game. Plus with some suggestions I decided also to make this wallpaper of all 5 player classes Instead of one at a time. I will release a non fiery runes version later this weekend. I just wanted to get this one out.
Now then the time It took me to cut out each and every class was at least an hour average. The wizard one I had In my 2 year anniversary and wanted to reuse It In a newer wallpaper and now was a great time for it. That male barbarian was a PAIN to cut out because of the fur alone. Same with the demon hunter. She had so many reticals I had to hide most of her. The Monk also had some issues with the bottom right foot of his. A demon cut In front of him so I had to put him behind something to hide that. The Witch doctor I tried to use what I did when I first used this artwork on an older wallpaper and crop certain parts of the voodoo doll and make it look as seamless as possible.
This week I have both size made for sure so please enjoy them. Next week I will have the Followers since they were recently revealed as I was finishing this piece.
Enjoy!

Thirty-three runes and thirty-three wallpapers; Diablo 2‘s runes were 33 strong and that number was important with the 3rd series. It ends as the new year begins. This series was my favorite. Not only due to time I spent on it, but all the changes styles and breakthroughs I’ve done throughout the past 2 years.
The 3rd fiery runes series debuted on December 1st 2008, and with it plans for a very different albeit similar wallpaper series. Improving upon the last two with better quality runes and eventually a higher resolution for me to work with.
This series has been my pride and joy. I’ve taken so many good and bad hits over the years. I almost gave up when I lost my artwork to two hard drive failures. Not only that I also had so many negative comments here and there that my drive started to wane.
As this series ends my plans for the future continue. Will the Fiery Runes Series end? Not likely really; I have more plans that involve it lasting far past the first game and through to its coming expansion(s). My drive now is to have fun with this stuff. If someone doesn’t like my wallpapers then that’s fine if I do this and love doing it then whatever comes afterwards is just awesome.
This is my new year’s gift to the Diablo community. The Original artwork of this version of big red is by the amazing Wei Wang and you can see his artwork on the Sons of Storm website. I have been waiting for this piece to be available for years. What a fitting way to end this series!
Let’s hope this is the year for Diablo III. See you all soon when the next wallpaper series starts. Also this year look forward to my first ever Diablo 3 fan fiction featuring the characters from The Dark Library news posts in: Chronicles of the Dark Library.
Thanks everyone for all the support over the years. Means a lot to me. Gives me the drive to keep going.
