Gnome Art Preview

[Arrive]

that's a great looking gnome!

i've often thought that a possible evolution for gnomes in the game would be to make them more of an elvish halfling... historically they're more related to dwarfs but somehow that just doesn't do it for them

This is what a Gnome should look like:

Ther 4E MM gnome is one of the few gnomes I don't feel need killing. Maybe because it is a gnome in gname only. Still, being a member of The Cult of the Anti-Gnome, I wait patiently for the day D&D is gnome free.

I have never liked fey, and I rarely use them in DnD. I do not see this changing because of 4th edition.

Well, whatever the heck that thing is, it sure isn't a gnome.

Nor is that abomination that Wayne Reynolds afflicted the world with a gnome -- its species name is "Kill On Sight."

Oh, yes, and while we're on the subject of the art previews, does anyone else think that the female cambion resembles Aunt Jemima?

He does look a bit like a tiefling. I can't tell if thats really supposed to be hair, or if gnomes have been crossbreeding with satyrs.

LOL. I was referring to the Tiefling and Gnome interview, where at the end the Tiefling kicks the Gnome's pet Francis off the screen.

I like it!
My gnomes are going to receive a makeover, real soon now. Very fey looking, not wild about the Harry Potter wand, tho.

I generally like Mimura's art, but this one is a miss for me.

Hey, I didn't know he was doing some of the art. I haven't been keeping up on the previews clearly.

Either way, he signed my GWB, so I'm good.

I took the picture and slapped a few pixels about to make it not only closer to the cartoon gnome (pale greenish skin), but maily to make the figure composition a bit more solid.
