[Klaus]

Hate the art style, feels too much like they walked out of an episode of the Extreme Ghostbusters cartoon. I wish they would have just kept the Brom painting from Dungeon magazine

Maybe once i see the stats of the super devourer, I might like it more. Just a shame they did not use the Delraich's Magic card art for it. http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/7253/delraichkb5.jpg

Well, no fair. It's Brom, after all.

 

[Fallen Seraph]

Art by Dave Allsop
Foulspawn are deranged humanoids corrupted by contact with the Far Realm, a maddening and distant plane.

I'm just not feeling this one for some reason. I think dolgaunts (dolgrims = lame) would have made a better foulspawn than some of the ones shown here.

 

[HeavenShallBurn]

The Foulspawn are just lame. I mean they had a good idea at the basis, but the art is awful. It looks like it came out of a children's cartoon or a poorly illustrated comic. This is the Far Realms we're talking about, the home of Cthulu and Tsthaugwa and all those fellows. They can and should be much more horribly unnatural than these refugees from a Saturday morning cartoon.

Dolgaunts are awesome, yes. Having tentacles, being blind, and having leeches on their chest - they really grew on me. Like evil, skinned yogi cenobites.

These things definitely don't make me think of "Illithid's second cousin twice removed on the step-father's side" of the far realms, no.

Although the little guy on the far right with the four arms? I like him.

They look strangely.... Jolly.

Appropriate for creepy fae, or even some sort of Undead Harlequin, but Far Realm? No. Cthulu is not that kind of insanity.

 

[chaotix42]

From the MMV. Odd, the big skinless one and the four-armed dagger-wielder aren't in the MMV art gallery. They were in there too though.

I like them as Far Realm humanoids.

Agreed. When I read the description that they were Far Realm touched I looked again at the pic and thought maybe they had the wrong image inserted there. I agree they look more like twisted fae creatures with the elvish ears and the almost celtic-like patterns on the one on the left...

I suppose it's easy enough to change "Aberrant" to "Fey" in the type descriptions, for the few that are worth saving.

So far, these guys appear to be the Rast/Ravid/Phantom Fungus candidates in the MM -- we knew there'd be some...

Hey now!

Humanoids warped by the far realms are pretty interesting, as opposed to the PHantom Fungus. These guys' flaw is that their art sucks.
