Warcraft III - Arthas, The Lich King, Arthas, The Lich King Sprite

6, maybe 7 hours working on this sprite. It was a challenge to me by Shin, create Arthas.

Stage 1:

Helmet completed, pieces of the chain-mail completed and the blue thing between his legs, not sure what it's called.

Stage 2:

Added, his glowing eyes. Not much changes here.

Stage 3:

Pauldrons finished, chain-mail also finished. Added a belt.

Stage 4:

The belt now has a little gold, added his red arm (originally I was supposed to turn him in to something else).

Stage 5:

Extra skull added next to the smaller one on the belt, armor added next to the chain-mail. Hovering armour spikes dangling in mid-air also added.

Stage 6:

Added his gloved hand above the hovering armour spikes.

Stage 7:

Gave his other arm a glove with metal studs and platings beneath it, added his pants and greaves.

Final Stage:

Final Result, added Frostmourne.

Haha, 6 or 7 hours of making just one sprite. I had a base to make it easier (harder because I can't adjust the proportions correctly) to sprite.

Base:

Yup, a four ar- MACHAMP?! FROM POKEMON?!!?!

Shin said to use that as a base, don't ask me. >_<

Comments!

Machamp turned into the Lich King? In just 6-7 hours? DO YE HAVE HEALING TOUCH?! Lich King sprite looks cute...somehow. Well done!

Arthas wasn't that big =o Nor was he a Lich King, he was a Death Knight. And where's his horse?! D:

Wrong Zyx, all wrong.

Play Frozen Throne and you'll find out whether or not he's The Lich King, second, look at the cinematics and you'll see, he IS that big.

And the horse? It's mine now.

Um, spoilers warning?

I doubt anyone here still plays Frozen Throne. It's so old, I didn't think the spoiler tag would be even needed. It would be spoilers if the game was new tho. :D

Naw those won't be necessary; Arthas starts off in the human campaign. Catch me drift? lol

He's big, yeah, but I didn't think he was that big, or at least, proportionately I thought he was taller.
Also, in Frozen Throne he starts off as a Death Knight. I've not finished the Undead Campaign so he may become the Lich King, but as far as I know, yer wrong! :P

Then play on, Zyxie, play on. X3

I can't, my Warcraft III disc is broken :(

Since it's broken, I'll tell you.

He beats Illidan and wounds him, steps up to the throne and fuses with the Lich King, making Arthas/Ner'zhul the New Lich King.

So as far as I know, I'm right. >: D

And yes, he is taller but the challenge was to use Machamp to make him, so I couldn't do much about it. If I were to sprite him from scratch it would look.... normal I guess.

Sweet :P So Illidan gets away in the end? And what happens to what'sherface, the Warden (main Night Elf hero)? Or is the end of that campaign the last you hear of her?

The Warden? Maiev Shadowsong? She chases Illidan all across the world just to capture/kill him. LOL!

I always thought Maiev was hardcore. You'll see her in Blood Elf's campaign, though I can't remember if she appeared in the undead's campaign.

I haven't played Frozen Throne yet, I only found out he was the Lich King because of WoW. When I saw the Lich King intro, I was like 'Wtf? Isn't that Arthas?' then I began some research.

Will be playing Frozen Throne when I am not doing something.
