The demons of the Burning Legion are pouring into world of Azeroth lead by a Dark Titan. How will this turn of events change the landscape of the world?
We’re really excited about the upcoming August release of World of Warcraft “Legion”. Being big fans of Blizzard and Warcraft, we wanted to celebrate the release by hosting a fan art contest.
From what we know, gloom and doom is about to hit the world in the worst way possible. So we thought it would be fun to to ask you all to imagine and create place or scene with an optional character in the form of a diorama inspired by Legion after the burning legion arrives.
Here’s a good example of what we’re looking for:
We’ve got an exciting chest of loot for you, and an amazing group of judges – both artists and leaders in the Warcraft scene. – Who will use all their expertise to help us pick the winners.
Enjoy!
