Showoff: WoW award Frostmourne replica.

[AnubisGuard]

This isn't mine, but I'm posting on behalf of a friend who just received his replica of Arthas' sword, Frostmourne, which he won as top prize in one of Blizzard's art contests.

The winning image:

And the sword:

I have to admit that I'm not much of a gaming person, but this looks so badass that I can't wait to stop by his place and see it in person. :thumbsup

Holy smoke, what a nice painting. The award is well deserved!

Man I hope that game doesn't suck me back in after WoTLK launches. :cry


Awesome looking blade. Would look pretty nasty with some blue LEDs in the eye pieces. :love

Just recieved a little more info on the replica: it's manufactured by Epic Weapons, and weighs 16 pounds (though he tells me it feels heavier than that). The retail price is $400.

OOOOO! I wish it was lighter! That looks sweet!

WOW! (Get the pun! Hehe!) That looks cool.

Check this out. It's embedded with a microchip to show that it is an authentic, authorized replica - not a knock off. So hold up your sword as you log in to play your virtual character!

When I was working at United Cutlery in PD we were working on that piece for them. Glad to see Kit got it finished up, and they actually made it.

That is an amazing sword design. Good paint job, too.

Dang I'm tempted by this!

The photo looks like an officially distributed work through Blizzard, its brilliant. Award well deserved.
