Wait, you give Vallejo, Royo, and Bell as examples of art that shows something more believable? lord-of-shadow Send a noteboard - 08/02/2010 08:00:53 PM
Maybe I've been looking at the wrong pieces from those artists, but all three of them seem to specialize in naked barbarian chicks, occasionally being molested by some grotesque demon. I'd take shallow, marketing-driven art over their erotic, hyper-sexualized Conan The Barbarian schlock any day of the week.

And I don't mind the new D&D art-style as much as most of you seem to. But that seems to boil down to pure taste, so there's not much to argue about there.

Is it just me or is contemporary fantasy art crap? - 08/02/2010 02:37:40 AM 1003 Views
You might get a better response with this on the sci-fi/fantasy board. *NM* - 08/02/2010 06:50:24 AM 291 Views

I don't know if it's crap, but I'm not sure I like it either - 08/02/2010 05:33:49 PM 722 Views
First, D&D 4.0 is marketed at WoW players. - 08/02/2010 07:44:47 PM 909 Views

Don't knock the naked barbarian chicks - 10/02/2010 02:18:09 PM 644 Views
Yes. I had an old Kull edition just like that - 10/02/2010 01:59:28 AM 633 Views
As far as D&D is concerned, yes. - 10/02/2010 12:53:46 AM 684 Views
