For those of you who don't know, the hero Kunkka is actually named after the artist Kendrick Lim (Kunkka) who painted the loading screens for the original DotA from version 6.49 on. He also did the promotional art of the new DotA 2 heroes that resembled DotA's load screens. Kunkka has also done some unofficial art of DotA 2 heroes which are quite stunning.

Here is the art he's done for DotA 2 along with the loading screens from the original DotA:
































I really hope Valve continues the tradition of having new art for loading screens every so often like the original DotA did. I was always really excited when the game was loading and there was a new load screen. This also would open up the opportunity for Valve to host art contests and incorporate the winner(s) art into the game! I of course would love for Kunkka to do art for DotA 2, but art contests are always fun. :)
