Do You Like The Cover of the New Conan RPG?

[crazy_cat]

No. Don't like the colours or teh way the Conan figure is shown.

I don't care for it. The yellow doesn't work for me if it needed to be kept. Perhaps a brownish purple or something. But overall I don't like the piece.

I can't vote, because I love the cover's content, but those colors...

I feel like it's some sort of test for color blindness, but I'm not sure if I tested positive or not.

It looks better than the ruleset.


I like the scene , but not the colors or depiction of Conan. He seems a bit ordinary.

No. The body proportions look off. Conan is absurdly chiseled and... wide, with skinny legs. Like groo. Something odd about her too.... like her breasts are to low or something. I dunno. It just feels off.

Compared to the artistic legacy of Conan portrayals this seems like a pale imitation.

On balance, yes. While I might prefer some more technical proficiency for a piece of cover art, I like the composition, I like the fact that it's clearly aimed at inspiring the imagination of young men, and I like the fact that it's not afraid of skin, muscle, and testosterone. I wish more recent roleplaying art had similar focus.

I also really appreciate the use of color and lighting. It's very character focused. These are the heroes. This is their tale that's being told. Compare that to the WOTC's recent PHB, where the player characters are hapless victims about to be pummeled by the real subject of the painting; the giant.

So yeah, I dig.

No, I would take any issue of the old Marvel Comics Conan covers ( that reminded me of Brom quality) anyday (under Petersen Publishing).
