Background
Holyknight3000, also known as "HK" made him self known a few days after the Diablo 3 announcement on July 1st 2008 with his first wallpaper posted on Diii.net's gallery, which was a screenshot of what we now know was Diablo.
He went on to make the Fiery Runes Series wallpapers, a popular series which is currently in its third series. This series didn't really take off until he spent 5 hrs making the Female Witch Doctor wall art which he only used screenshots from the WWI 2008 Concept Art Trailer.
The initiative by HK to make these wallpapers is one of the main reasons that the prominent Diablo 3 fansite Diii.net started weekly fan wallpaper reports, posted by long time community front figure Flux and called the Diablo 3 Weekly Wallpaper, a feature much appreciated by the fans.
Works
Below are the various works, and series Holyknight3000 has posted on diii.net's D3 Wallpaper Gallery.
Fiery Runes Series I
The first wallpaper in this series and what started for HK began on July 1st 2008. The series ended on his rendition of Diablo on August 11th 2008.
Fiery Runes Series II
The Second Series began with the headshot of Diablo from the debut d3 logo that showed his head below the name. The image came from the Leipzig Press CD Artwork. The series started to go weekly on every Monday around midnight central time. This series began September 1st 2008 and ended November 10th 2008.
Fiery Runes Series III
Also called Fiery Runes Series Three: Heaven and Hell, or FRS3: Heaven and Hell. This series which began on December 1st 2008 is still on going.
Fiery Runes Series iPhone
While HK was working on Series One he saw some d3 wallpaper images on the net for the Apple iPhone and decided to make a few for people who are fans of the series. This way they could have the fiery runes on their mobile iPhone. He also made one from the second series of the Male Witchdoctor. This iPhone series is ongoing with the series as the main series is released.
Fiery Runes Series Extras
These are the Extra wallpaper images HK released after he had finished with each series. Some he revisited for better sizing or just better quality remakes. This side series is ongoing as the Fiery Runes Series continues on.
Other Wallpaper
These are the various other diablo 3 wallpapers that HK has made before he began the series and during his downtime making new rune walls, and series.
