[QUOTE="doctorhook, post: 4896263, member: 58401"] Cool stuff! I like most of what I see, (in terms of both artwork and products), and this Official D&D "Heroscape" thing makes me curious about what the heck Heroscape is and how to play it -- it looks like it might be a cool way to introduce my younger cousins to D&D! I have one complaint though: the cover of [I]Player's Handbook Races: Dragonborn[/I] -- blech! I've seen this artist's work before IIRC, but not until seeing it on a cover did it look so bad to me! Cover art should be the best artwork from the book, IMHO. I think the "look" of Dragonborn still needs some polish, but I really liked the concept sketches by William O'Connor!

That's a picture of the same creature that appeared in the [I]Draconomicon[/I], but until now I had no idea what either creature in that picture was supposed to be -- I don't think that image was ever explained anywhere in that book, nor do I think it described Io physically.
