Daily Deviation

Given 2010-01-29
Diablo, Lord of Terror by *scarypet From the suggester "One of the best things I've ever seen here, unbelievable" I have to agree! This fan artwork is simply jawdropping! ( Suggested by =pain-designs and Featured by `rydi1689 )
:iconjester-of-the-clown:
Dark and terrifying as ever, Diablo lives up fully to his namesake as Lord of Terror in this massively impacting fan art piece by *scarypet.

Huge and imposing, the Prime Evil crouches menacingly in the moonlight, ready to wreak havoc on the entirety of Sanctuary, home to the human race. The pose is a tad generic, but the slight positionings of the hands, the claws, and the torso give it less of a cowardly feel or an animalistic aura, but more of a malignant, evil quality as is apropos of one of the Three Brothers of the Burning Hells.

The atmosphere is charred, smoky, and right from the depths of the depths of the earth, with rough spikes, spires, and craters of freshly cooling magmite, and Diablo's coloring clearly indicates that he came right from the deep splits in the world, symbolically and literally indicating his Hellish origins. The little fissures in the charred stone and the flecks of fiery stone fluttering in the air do wonders to show fiery it really is.

The lighting is a tad typical, but is used fairly well. It's used in moderation, and comes off fairly realistic, so it's pretty believable that a demon is standing in the moonlight in a crack in the crust of the world, smouldering and burning.

The overall form of Diablo may seem unfaithful to some of the fans of Diablo II, but you guys would be wrong. This is the rendering of the first incarnation of Diablo in the original game. The only differing factors are the facts that he's currently covered in ash and that he didn't have a tail, but these are minor details as far as I'm concerned.

The technique is as good as quite a few cutting-edge digital artists we've seen on this site and off it, so it's nothing extremely groundbreaking, but it's still very damn good and I'd like to see if anyone can even TRY to prove me wrong on this.

Overall, this pice gets 4.5 out of 5(just shy of legendary), and is a definite piece to mount on any Diablo fan's wall...

I wish u could remove the watermarkings for wallpaper desktop use... this does make a bad ass wallpaper and the watermarkings just pretty much ruin it dude

I would highly appreciate it if you can at least PM me a link to one w/o watermarkings... I promise I wont do anything bad with the non-watermarked copy!
