- Frank Ippolito shows us his amazing Lich King armor that he made for Blizzard's Hearthstone Knights of the Frozen Throne expansion. This project allowed Frank and his team to take cosplay to a new level, combining clay sculpting, large-scale 3d printing, smoke effects, and chroming to make our jaws drop. Just look at that Frostmourne sword!

Nice costume, thanks!
You should make Kael'thas Sunstrider too
Your Arthas is far too skinny and that ruin all the effect of the costume. However good one, but pls chose someone more heavy to waer it.
How much for you to make it again and sell it to me?
"My son. The day you were born, the very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name, Steve."
Ionut Gugeanu Good one
Tomi Todorov Jesus just imagine the Lich King's actuall name was "Steve" Jesus I couldn't take him serious for one second
Or Keith...
Lich kings actual name is Arathas.
@@dwswarrior1338 So here's the joke.
And here's you. The joke flew right over your head.
Didn't know The Lich King's name was Steve. He sounds like a nice guy.
XD
Well, his full name is "The Lich King Arthas Steven Menethil, Crown Prince of Lordaeron and Knight of the Silver Hand". But, today, he just wanted to be called "Steve"... you know... just one of the guys... just hanging out at Tested.
Yeah he is a pretty cool guy when you get to know him
Jeremiah Johnson
Man, that name must suck to fill out at the DMV, or read out to someone on the phone. At least he's a relaxed guy.
He's misunderstood.
Did someone forgot to feed that sword? because by the looks of it *Frostmourne hungers*
Kuma Bear looks more like frostmourne vapes.
You have not done ICC yet have you?

@kuma 4 likes more to 666! so close!
"This is more like it."
I can just picture a scooby doo episode where they unmask the Lich King and it turns out to be Blizzard employee Steve.
That needs to happen
or ben brode, laughing as the helm is removed off of his head
HAHAHAH
And Steve would've gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddling kids.....
Those meddling LFR heroes!
When he starts to talk at 3:42
When you hear that voice coming from that suit, it's like something straight out of Family Guy or something
So many great cosplays over the years, but you can't trump Blizzard at their own game. Props to all the fantastic detailing you guys did, _and to Steve and his mighty, towering physique._
Waiting for that full functional DVa mech.
PFFF.. Fully functional raptorion suit!
Overtrash
Trash Fortress
Trash Fortress because it doesn't have broken hitboxes and is not full of casuals
1. Open console and look at hitboxes, all fine
2. Casuals everywhere
excellent model. now ya'll need to make one for Hafthor Julius Bjornsson to wear!! (also, a Darth Malgus outfit for Brian Shaw would make for an epic duo!)
"Six five." Imagine if Arthas just had a normal voice like that. "Hey guys, it's me, Arthas."
"I'm like... succeeding you or something dad. Oh wait, brb, getting Facetimed!"
He's not buff enough. Looks more like an Arturito rather than an Arthas.
yeah, my thoughts exactly. the chest looks kinda flat. needs more pecs but other than that badass!
he's just lack of farming, not fat enough tho
Shoulders don't look broad enough. Kind of a skinny LK.
More like Artrina
why dont you show us your armor creation then?
That was fun to see. I like the fact that Frank is all about the Team and showed some of the process involved in bringing together something as impressive as this. I'd love to see it in an elevator, smoke and all.
the the Great and Powerful Lich King... Steve.
I wish they showed how they handled the eyes. I presume the eyes on the helm aren't aligned with the wearer's, as that seems to generally be the case with big costumes, but still, it'd be nice to see where everything is relative to Steve.
Agreed
I'd think he's seeing through the nose hole, and you can see his chin through the helmet in a couple shots
I'm glad this came up in my recommended tab, that's badass
"The Villains have the best gear!"- D.Vader
Thats sick. i know somebody created the actual sword too with metal i think but this is also cool especially with it not being so heavy and the smoke emitting like frost just like in game. I always thought The Lich King was the coolest looking villain id ever seen. I legit just wanted to be on his side in WoW and never leave the starting zone as a DK
That costume is awesome! Huge props (pun intended), to the crew who made that.
love how you can see how into it he is. Not into cosplaying but i appreciate the passion!
My son, the day you were born the very forest of Lordaeron whispered the name... Arthas
Steve*
/w Arthas
Steve
just wait some day a emo girl gonna walk op to him, and rip of he's helmet and tear it in 2 pieces
Haha!
More like 5 lol
1:36
"and it makes these durable lightweight parts"
Cosplayer: That's my cue to jiggle. Let the jiggling commence
"Father... Is it... Over?"
At long last. No king rules forever steve.
"I see... Only a little bit because of these LED's and fabric eye covers"
Absolutly awesome! One last detail is missing: the Lich King voice! ^^
"Let them come... Frostmourne hungers"
I've always wondered if something like this can be made on commission. Wonderful job 👍
now he just needs a choir to follow him round singing his theme
When your nerdboner is so strong that you need to almost crouch for the whole interview
wow this is amazing
lich King was my favorite expansion from wow just on difficulty where you really need to know your shit and pay attention
these guys did a great job
It's funny watching Norm hold Frostmourne in a grab-able position as if he was trying to hand it off & the Lich King just stands there looking at him.
Beautiful work, I'm loving these latest tested videos.
What an awesome crew. love the results!!! thanks for sharing in this behind the scenes of the lITCH KIING suit
5 weeks god damn that's impressive
I don't play WoW, but that is a dang impressive build. Good job, guys!
This would be dope to have in your house like a suit of armor
Yeah, you can wear it while you wonder why you're still a virgin.
Adam Savage could never build a costume this cool!!!!
i cant take my eyes off it, it's beyond badass
You're not messing around. Amazing piece of work.
I definitely want to see a Lich on catwalk!
Can't wait till *this* movie comes out.
Look at that product placement on the right. Good job guys.
the Blizzards its ganna love that you make the Lich King Armor
I guess soon we'll be seeing Adam Savage incognito as The Lich King :D
My son, the day you were born the very forest of Lordaeron whispered the name...Adam
One day I hope to have the money and equipment to do all this, the mold making looks amazing
Don't forget time.
Chloe doesmakeup you look very talented and artistic I bet you can get there one day (:
That is the coolest thing every. And in 5 weeks? That's nuts!!
Oh Mah god! Im fan of the LICH KING i want to forge an armor like that!
Even the frostmourne!!
and dont forget to feed the frostmourne "Frostmourne Hungers"
Frostrmourne is hunger
Tame him with soul
Let them come. Frostmourne hungers
This Lich King is so chill
"he is a big guy"
4 u
So cool that a small indie company like blizzard could get something as famous as tested to make a suit of armor for them.
*Imagine Dwajne Johnson in Arthas set*
With a voice box to give him that DK echo god I'd be terrified
Arthas isn't black tho :(
@@Aganie. his Samoan
I was thinking about Hafthor Bjornsson, the mountain.
OMGGGGGGGGGG
So many memories just went by! Awesome build!!!
2019 and F for the Crown of Lich King, Sylvannas destroyed the crown.
Wow. When seeing the hearthstone videos, I thought the eyes were just special effects done in post. Didn't know they were actually part of the costume. Very cool.
damn, that is a piece of art. Wish I could wear it sometime haha
Very cool costume. Hopefully they do proper tear and wear for textile parts too. Now they look too neat and new. Awesome job!
That's super sick. Can't wait for Knights of the Frozen Throne. ^.^.
15 people 5 weeks and they made this beauty! Such dedication...where can I apply!!!
😧 By all that is holy and the light! I so wish this could be bought in a retail environment...
there was this guy at Elfia ( A Dutch cosplay con) who also had a suit like this. it was glorious.
I just want that shelf of silicone...
to make some giant jugs?
Uh, no. Because it's expensive...creeps.
😂
Gypsum o... k...
That escalated so quickly x_x
Amazing! Please bring it out to DragonCon this year!
Oh my gosh. This is sooo gorgeous. I just had an idea. I would absolutely love to cosplay as the Lich King and visit kids whenever they have to go for surgeries. Just to cheer them up or help them be brave.
This looks fabulous.
Here's me doing my costumes on my own and it takes me over 8months for my builds...
Only thing missing on that armor was the dragon scale chainmail on the arms but considering the amount of time they had to make it all they did real well.
nice job! This looked fantastic in the commercial!
Well first of all, this armor costume is friggin unbeliavable! Incredible skills, indeed. But I would've loved if the eyes blinked every now and then, that little detail would bring it alive so much more, imo.
I figured out what felt kind of off for me. The Lich King was covered by his cape a little more. It went over his upper arms and connected under the pauldrons. The costume is amazing and there's no way I can do better. It's just, it felt like something was missing and after looking at pictures I think that was it.
More Frank and his shop please.
This is absolutely perfect! Ohmy
I just screamed! 2 of my favorite things combined!
Making the mail riveted would make jt look even better. Great work guys
Take my money!! I want the whole costume and sword!! :O
I see the Lich King has been busy spit shining his armor and weapon instead of feeding Frostmourne
Good god that is beautiful. Well done gents.
They did a great job on the armor, but the sword looks like one of those foam LARP replicas. For a nice Frostmourne, check out the one Man-At-Arms: Reforged made.
I'm in awe and this is a costume wow
They put more effort in this armor set than Blizzard has in any of their games for the past decade.
I always loved this armour.. Beautiful work.
It's absolutely beautiful. Excellent job.
Very nice, but guy is not bulky enough, rather looks like a lich queen or lich steve
I mean, if you want realism, Arthas's hand is big enough to smother his own face. Seriosuly go back and look at how absolutely gargantuan his hands are. In fact, just about everyone in WoW has massive hands and or feet by comparison. WHY they chose to make hands and feet completely out of sync with everythign else i have no idea, just look at blood elf, they are the most anatomically correct to humans (more so than humans actually) and you can tell their feet are fucking huge, even the girls.
there are no people that look like that lol
Maybe someone at Bilizzard had a foor fetish like Miyazaki
@@Kugrox Yeah, bloodelves anatomically correct to 2010's humans :D The guy from movie Sone Cold 1991 could be an almost anatomically correct Arthas, but hard to find someone like him nowdays :D
@@Kugrox Btw my main concern was his small shoulders and thin body, not his hands.
Ok now put that armor on the Mountain from GoT...
give him a full steel outfit and Frostmourne and physical casting for the live action movie is done!
Well done Tested on creating that. Looks amazing.
I thought that was CGI, it's so good.
When you are a death knight so you can hang out witch the Lich King and you find out he is actually a cool guy.
That is fucking amazing!
Some dry ice inserts on the legs with a slow leak would be nice. Give it that look like he is frosting the ground. Would probably last like 5 mins though.
More videos on the molding and casting? I can't wait.
Building cosplay armor for a living would be such an amazing job!
This is phenomenal!
2 words... this. is. awesome ! !
For the whole video I could not stop thinking about invincible song.
Just imagined the lich king saying:"quick help me get out of my armor! I have to pee!"
Frank is the element that makes videos with Norm watchable. Great Costume Guys!!! That is Awesome!!!
That is one awesome costume, amazing how heavy it 'looks' LOL. Thanks for sharing with us.
My son. The day you were born, the very forest of Lordaeron whispered the name, Arthas
Respect your work!
Now that’s so cool
We really need the arthas lich king back in wow these days. Pity Sylvannas decided to break the coolest thing about thelich knig in the shadowlands intro; the helmet.
Man I am doing my warlock now I do not want to weigh my shoulders because of the mats I used they will be SO heavy. Truck bed liner, Fing Awesome!
To bad the King did not slaughter them at the end. His frostmourne sword were begging for that!
