D&D General [ART THREAD]Your Personal Favorite D&D Art For a Monster

[Reynard]

I've been flipping through my old 3e books and saw this image of Mephistopheles, it's one of my favourite images of him as I find it is the exemplar for the scheming devil archetype.

I had to check some of his other art to make sure the signature was the same, but yes, yes it is. I don't think I ever realised. I quite like his artwork.

I find the way the Cat Lord (one of the animal lords) has evolved in art/appearance over time to be fascinating. The 1st edition Monster Manual II had a unique take on the Cat Lord, while the new Monster Manual definitely is more "anthropomorphic cat".

I like both, to be honest, although the 2025 Cat Lord is definitely "cuter".

Eww.

Eww.

Understandable! I personally don't mind a slightly cuter look for some monsters, but I also get the appeal of having the Master Cat be not cuddly lol

DiTerlizzi's Cat Lord! I can't believe I forgot about this classic piece
