FAVORITE JOB: leather gloves

Girls that haven't even played the game have drooled over this man. The only way I could ever get close to King Arthas is if he came aboard my ship...that is...if he was real. At least the White Lady got it good when he made her general. Although I loved Illidan, Arthas is number one, and that demon hunter deserved the loss because the Lich King rules. Strange all those in favor of revenge failed and fell. Arthas, with determination and power, was victorious.

I wish I was Arthas. I wish I was the White Lady. The power.

Frostmourne should be longer. In the undead campaign screen it's half Athas's body lenght

Now that I look at this so-called "piece," it looks like a piece of shit. I'll draw Arthas MUCH better soon.......probably with Illidan or something.....GAH!!!!! X3 So sexy!!!!!!!!!

This looks kickass. I started playing the Undead campaign not too long ago, and I must say, they're pretty good and fun to control.

I thought Arthas looked totally awesome in his death knight outfit.

Pardon..."please play WCIII" AGAIN. As we all have our flaws. And please, keep your mouth shut if you have nothing influential to say. Criticize but give suggestions. Karma works wonders, boy.

well I am sorry that you do not like my critizism! I said that he was to skinny, because in the Game: Reign of Chaos and in Frozen Throne he is much ticker looking- even in the movie (ah! I watch the one were he kills his father all the time) I was just given out points that it was not accurate in that aspect, but it was in the aspect that his armor is like that- just made for a bigger person.

Ah, my son. I knew you would--

You...no longer need to sacrifice for your people. You no longer need to bear the weight of your crown. I've taken care of...everything.

*cool, dark music*

What are you doing, my son?

Succeeding you, father.

*WOOHOO! DEATH!*

This kingdom shall fall. *bell tolls* And from the ashes shall arise a new order that will shake the very foundations...of the world.

Ah, I see. So it wasn't just that my style prefered a more manga approach. Okay. Yeah. He is more "knighty" in the game...but it's hard capturing masculinity when you prefer female bodies over male. I always have a hard time fitting armor anyway. Another reason I'm terrible at machina. Apologies if I sounded like I snapped.

s'kay, I'm used to getting my head bit off.. With guys, pretend your drawing a milk carten (yes cheese- but it works) and add overexagreated muscle lines that a female would have (but make the breast flat pectroials). I draw guys to much that my girls look butch (bear huttin' with a switch WHOOHOO).

I see. ^_^; Well, if you're used to having your head bitten off, stop doing what makes other people aggravated, or something.

Thanks for the advice. It's very nice of you to take your time with little ol' me. ^_^

He is to skinny? Or his he too skinny? I pity you that you do not like my style. Please play Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos before judging my work.

beautiful detail in the sword and armor!!! I can't wait to see this finished, it's looking like you're off to a great start!

My only critique.. and I hate doing it now, as it's obvious you've already started coloring it, so it makes it a lot harder to go back 'n change things... but anyway, the only thing I can see that could use a little tweaking is in his right arm, (the one in the foreground with the sword) his forearm is a little disconnected from his bicep/upper arm. Near as I can tell, my best suggestion would be to just extend the outline of the bicep forward more.. so it's nearly overlapped by the upper outline of the forearm... then it would feel as though the two fit together more like puzzle pieces... something rather challenging even for me now after all these years of drawing human anatomy!

Don't change anything else though! I love it... and his face is cool too.. great job

hey nice design, especially the armor, looks so dark that if he didn't have a sword in his hand i'd think he was a necromancer

Brilliantly drawn! I agree with ~naphtali about the cape and hair, the effect is excellent. I love the sword too, and the background really sets the atmosphere. Great job!

LOL, fun title. I like how you did the skulls, they just look cool. Love the motion of his hair and cape. Gollum's song is great. Overall a good job.
