[QUOTE="Wolv0rine, post: 4236636, member: 9045"] And Christianity stole the concept lock-stock-and-barrel from Gnosticism ([i]and no, that's not a "religious topic", it's a historically accurate throw-away line, not meant to be responded to, just thrown in there because of what it's responding to, mods[/i]), then filtered it through the art of the dark & middle ages. Yes I agree that Angels can and [b]should[/b] come if different types and forms (although for the sake of using the word Angel, I think wings and at least a semi-humanoid appearance is warranted). I do NOT get why they don't have legs.. did the artist hired not like drawing legs? It doesn't help that I find the art very, very badly done in any technical form. It looks like they gave the artist 1 day to do the art, and he just pumped out hat he could manage. Having been in that situation, that's about the quality that I'd expect from a HUGE rush job. If the artist had more than 2 days to do the illustration, he wasn't good enough to have gotten the job in my opinion. Now the trolls, the trolls are turning out to look rather interesting. Have they not shown the new look for ogres yet or have I missed it or forgotten it? Be very interested to see what they're doing. [/QUOTE]
