So about Arthas art in battle net app

Why does Arthas looks like a 45 years old drug lord in the art you guys have in battle.net app ?

It looks nothing like arthas.

It looks like what Arthas might look like after picking up Frostmourne, which he is holding in that pic.

Frankly, I think it looks great.

Its a great artwork! It perfectly pictures the worn out and desperate arthas that fails to get rid of the scourge and slowly is falling towards darkness.

To me, he looks like a 5-year-old in a gigantic armour though

Sure but his hair is still blonde. To me Arthas with paladin armor was always the one on the cover of original warcraft 3. He lost his soul to frostmourne not his energy.

He didn’t turn into a white-haired death knight overnight. His transormation was progressive.

It didn’t happen in 2 secs either.

If you look at full art it is the moment he claimed frostmourne since he is standing infront of his hammer and book.

Don’t tell me he aged 20 years in 2 months because of plague and his anger.

I like this artwork tbh, much better of his 17 years old Reforged model, he looks weared and kind of manly on the app

Good point, I didn’t see the hammer. Well, maybe he was just very tired :stuck_out_tongue:

On the other hand, if I remember correctly, Arthas is supposed to be young. He was 19 when he was inducted into the Knights of the Silver Hand, so I suppose he was in his early twenties in WarcrafT 3
To my opinion, Arthas would look better if he was like something between that artwork (too old) and its current Reforged model (too young)

Arthas would look pretty epic if he had this look instead of insert anime name here look he has in reforged : x_https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/wow/images/f/fe/ArthasMenethil.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110617144644

Considering the things he’s done before even picking up Frostmourne, that will cause many sleepless nights and stress. I ain’t surprised he looks like that.

Menethil’s legacy isn’t just the throne. it is good genes too. If you look at Terenas Menethil he looks 60 at the age of 90. Calia arthas’s sister also look 10-20 years younger than her age in legion. So yeah Arthas would be ok.

What anime are you watching with such strong western character design in it? I’ve been looking for something new to watch.

I don’t watch any anime, but Arthas for sure looks like a casual anime character in Reforged

Boy, they sure do have blue eyes and blonde hair and not much else in common.

Both of their faces are surely bland girly anime face

Again, what kind of anime are you watching or seeing around that has women with stern brows, strong noses, wide chins, and relatively strong jawlines?

Looks like it is impossible to argue with you
