Duke Nukem and 2K Games have released an officially commissioned portrait  to announce his return as the self proclaimed “King Of Shooters” as well as celebrate the marriage of Prince William and Catherine Middleton, and is named “Untitled: I’m So Awesome, I Don’t Even Need To Name It”!

2K Games and Duke Nukem proudly present the portrait ‘Untitled: I’m So Awesome, I Don’t Even Need To Name It’, an oil-on-board portrait celebrating the forthcoming release of Duke Nukem Forever (and the Royal Wedding). The specially commissioned piece was painstakingly crafted by renowned portrait artist Frank Frid and took a record 350 man hours to create. It was painted in a single sitting.

The portrait will be unveiled to the public prior to the Royal Wedding before moving to a more permanent exhibition space as part of the Duke Nukem Forever launch celebrations. 2K Games is also creating a limited run of 200 signed prints that will be partly used to raise money for charity.

“As usual, I look awesome,” said Duke of the 35” x 23” masterpiece. “I’m clearly the Royal story everyone should be talking about this week.”

Duke Nukem Forever will be released on 10th June in the UK so be prepared to play as his “Royal Awesomeness”. In the meantime enjoy the portrait!
