The Shadow of Death
I have drawn this in Gimp.
This is a cover art of Heroes of Might and Magic 3: The Shadow of Death Expansion Set from the year 2000. I have used a very simplistic style to showcase the characters on the boxed set. The main characters we can see here are Sandro the Necromancer to the left, and Craig Hack the Barbarian to the right.
In the game's campaigns, we find ourselves between the two in search for ancient relics needed for completing the game. It is an exciting story that is worth checking out for yourselves.
A side note here is that though this PC game is retro, veteran players are rediscovering this game, so seeing more fanart on places like ArtStation is not uncommon. An unofficial expansion set called Horn of the Abyss is being worked on now with dedicated game developers from Russia together with the original musical composer, Mr. Paul Anthony Romero.
This is the original game cover, the Polish edition. The Heroes of Might and Magic 3 games became extreme popular in such countries as Russia and Poland, but why? MJ Widomska released on Jul 22, 2019 an article regarding this phenomenon. I would recommend to read more about it:
