Tiefling form scill icon reminds me of Captain Jack Sparrow with a bottle of rum in both hands.

Also, Fortress scill icon looks like the Dark Wanderer in front of a gate (Monastery gate maybe?).

[Inertia]

This was too funny! xD

I actually have a pic I can post here that has all the icons I ever made and sent to Marco. 90% are soo bad especially the ones I made from like 4 years ago. xD

EDIT: btw most of my icons used pics I found on Google. Tiefling Form is an example of that, but I started drawing figures in newer icons I made.

Obliteration: dhiarrea

That's psistorm that looks like dhiarrea! Obliteration is an angel

lool

I misunderstood a lot of the skill icons, until I started carefully looking at them.

Sin: QoB - looked to me like a girl with hair covered with a thick cloth, like the muslim women.
Sorc: Bladestorm - looks like the back of a Quill Rat or some crystals, eg. from Starcraft
Pal: Plague - reminds me of the Tentacle guy from the Day of the Tentacle
Pal: Scourge - is obviously a skull over some church, with 2 crossed lightnings that are like the bones from "Skull and Bones"
Barb: Stormblast... no idea. A Hill/tower and lighting around it?

a hand holding a staff which is shooting flames

I didn't notice the second hand and always thought the staff is hold like this:

The whale tail is pretty spot on thought, I've never seen a demon there.


Orthodox patriarch and some rocks above him

► Show Spoiler

The head is trying to scratch its back.

[Gekko64]

Talon's Hold is a hand "collecting" the blood dripping from a scythe

[Stealthmaster]

Curare skill icon reminds me of one of those great Khmer sculptures in Cambodia
