Mur'gul Warlock

Mr.Goblin owed me a favor, so I asked him if he can draw the award entry icon for Direfury and I when we won Hero Contest #8 with our Mur'gul Warlock entry (you can check out our entry here). As mentioned, it was originally only made to be for the award icon, but I figured it should be uploaded as a possible ingame icon as well.

Sweet medal!! It fits the model very well and it's useful.

This is perfect. Too perfect. Fits the model, and fits great in-game. Even better, it just shows the face, so I can use an edited (non-Warlock-y) version of the model with this.

On a side note, I think the reason Mr.Goblin didn't want to upload it is because he didn't want it showing up on his profile. The icon is not worthy.
No Way. That cannot be; this thing is just up his alley. :<

... Maaaan; just think. If I had won, I could have a fancy custom icon made for my beautiful Windlord hero... *sniff*

Well if you had won, I would have asked what your award entry icon would be. Mr Goblin only did this because he owed me a favor :p
Well, it would've been the Windlord (winning entry), though you're right that Mr. Goblin probably wouldn't have drawn it. :<

Then again, I wonder when that started (using the winning entry for all the top 3 award icons); other places would use cool custom/in-game icons that come in 3s (upgrades & whatnot).

I believe Ralle would have to change the award system a bit to make it work. The moderators only have to give him a 40x40 of the award entry, and then the system automatically generates the Gold / Silver / Bronze borders. I'm not sure how Ralle would feel about it, but I think it would be an awesome idea. The only problem is finding someone who would be okay making 40x40 icons for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place :p

Well like I said, we wouldn't necessarily need someone to make all-new icons; at least not for a while, if ever. We could use in-game Upgrade animations (they come in sets of 3 with logical progressions from good-better-best), and then we could just use simple stuff like swords & helmets but change the glow.
