To be fair, @PrinceYaser did a fantastical job in terms of art however the images are too similar to each other in that there's a person or figure in each while @Ceterai made them, let's say, unique and I went with this last one.
@rept is at the beginning. It's a good start. It takes time to first get used to what you want to do and after to properly do it, so learn, experiment, have fun.

I will be fair here, all of 3 of them are pretty creative on turning them into death knight. But i'm disappointing. For real.
Like why is this time we only get like 3 people.
I understand if you turn them into DK take effort but i was hoping like a lot of units can turn into it as well.
Hey you can even turn a chicken to death chicken with knight helm on top.
Just saying, i hope we get more amazing icons.
