[QUOTE="Dyne, post: 3643988, member: 27202"] Well, medieval art/fashion varies widely depending on the region and time period. Lumping them all together is sort of like lumping together all the various styles and fashions of today and calling it "Modern Art". In general, I prefer D&D to have more of a medieval feel than a modern one, but that would still be limited to my viewpoint of medieval. I would probably use more flowing robes and knightly armor than frilly sleeves, and architecture would be heavily gothic. It wouldn't look [i]exactly[/i] like Medieval Europe, but more like what I would want Medieval Europe to look like. That's pretty much what Medieval Fantasy means. If you want an idea of the type of styles I enjoy, look at the Lord of the Rings and Conan. I don't believe you will find any frills there. Have I said the art in D&D was crap? I apologize if I gave that impression, it was definitely not my intention. I think some of the elements of 3e art are ridiculous and overdone, but I wouldn't want to insult people that enjoy those styles. Though, it would be nice if people like me were thrown a bone every once in awhile. [/QUOTE]
