The entire ceiling of a 1600’s French cathedral has been covered in demonic Diablo IV artwork.
The 160 foot display was undertaken by a team of skilled artists, led by American painter Adam Miller.

A short trailer was released on Tuesday, voiced by Game of Throne’s actor Charles Dance.
It’s all to promote the upcoming Diablo IV beta.
Gamers who pre order will be able to take part in the beta from March 18 through to March 20.

If you fancy yourself a piece of the art, you also have the chance to be added to the works.
“Eligible gamers that jump into the Open Beta in March will have a chance to be selected and painted into their own scene as a Diablo hero battling Lilith’s evil. Each will then receive a video of Adam painting them into the art. To opt-in to the sweepstakes and read the full promotion rules, head over to here.”

“Behold a masterpiece of evil”
I can only imagine the conversation between Blizzard marketing and the church to get this over the line.
How you approach a real cathedral in France with this kind of demonic imagery I have no idea!
Colour me impressed.
Check out the behind the scenes of the project below.
