[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5852392, member: 92511"] A little?! That's a good six to eight inches higher than they need to [should] be. Um, no. While you are correct, I've never played it. But that is completely irrelevant in a discussion, as I thought this thread was, about the art. The STYLE, the ART, the DESIGN of WoW, I find entirely awful. Elves to Trolls to armor and weapons. Hate it. Thus... What[I] I hope this isn't 5e...(art that screams "not this, not this!")=[/I]for me, WoW. Which...wasn't even an original point of mine, thought I was talking about elf ears?... [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/new-horizons-upcoming-edition-d-d/319134-i-hope-isnt-5e-art-screams-not-not-post5852314.html[URL=http://www.enworld.org/forum/misc.php?do=dbtech_usertag_hash&hash=post5852314%22%5D%5Bquote%3Dshidaku]#post5852314"][/URL] My idea is neither exaggerated nor twisted, thank you. I have seen more than my share of WoW images, screen-captures, design schematics for all manner of things in the game. We're talking about the art here (to call it "art" outright might be stretching)...and what's bad/hope is not presented in 5e. I think I am completely justified, no matter how misguided you find my taste, in saying WoW is not the direction of imagery 5e should take. So we agree on that, then. Good. This makes sense. I do enjoy me some being purposefully obtuse. Hmmm. I don't think ridiculously elongated ears (and yes, 6 to 8 inches off/over the head are ridiculous, imho) are going to differentiate your typical elf from a pointy-eared human who lives in a tree. Gonna take a bit more than that in the flavor and crunch. For the art, completely not necessary. [/QUOTE]
