I guess I'm a big fan of this guy, been watching his videos since he had long hair.. He is the only youtuber who's content I consistently keep up with..
So since he provided me with this much entertainment and is a really good and interesting guy I felt like making this icon more so as fan-art than as something to be used ingame. However, I think there's people who included Wtii hero in their maps and stuff so I assume someone can probably even find use for this icon.
If you haven't heard of him, make sure to check out his youtube channel: wtiiwarcraft
Here's process file:
Unlike previous icons that I made by screenshotting the models and indexing to generate blobs, this icon was made entirely from scratch, as I made my own pixel blobs to work with. I was going for a Warcraft 3 style version of him so early on I made a mistake and I was focused more on style than on the portrait aspect of the piece, so I got carried away making it look nothing like him. Then I restarted and I am quite happy with the new outcome. It's not perfectly accurate but I'll make an excuse and say that it's Warcraft-ified version of him with some exaggerated features.
Reference was mainly this, and some google search images.
