Do you like Wayne "WAR" Reynolds?

[Hjorimir]

He's no Michael Komarck or Todd Lockwood, but he has some pieces I enjoy. His style screams, "made for comic books" to me. I'd rather see him as an interior artist than on the covers.

Reynolds is da man!

He's a new favorite of mine. I like his stuff more than the Warhammer-esque stylings of some other pieces in the newer books. Liked WAR's stuff in the Osprey books he's illustrated, as well.

He's now a big favorite of mine, along with Keith Parkinson (RIP), Larry Elmore, and Frank Frazetta, to name a few.

Now, if they could get Angus McBride to do some D&D illustrations (Osprey, MERP)...

I especially love WAR's artwork, but I prefer abstract covers to artwork.

Count me as a big WAR fan. The battle scenes created for the inside splash pages of Eberron books are some of my favorite D&D related art ever.

 

[Wormwood]

Reynolds defines the ideal D&D experience for me---heroic, dynamic action.

4e is in fine hands.

I'd put myself squarely in the middle.

There's a ton of his stuff that is great and evokes a wonderful action.

But sometimes the poses just get a little too wild and the proportions TOO exaggerated.

My thoughts exactly.

Don't know if you're aware, but Angus McBride actually passed away recently...

I think they should use him the same way TLG uses Peter Bradley. As their "Identity". Especially since they used him for the Core 3. IT gives even further/higher "recognition factor" whenever the books are seen if not only the logo's are there, but the art style is recognized as well.

At least I like it that way.

... it evokes fantasy, wonder, and epic battles. It makes me want to play. I can't think of a better compliment, honestly.

MY thoughts exactly.
Here's another vote for "love it"!
