I think he looks like a clown.

Rudolf the red-nosed dragonborn?

LOL! I admit, he is a a 'lil bit funny!

My sneaking suspicion is that Lee Moyer just does proportions badly (halfling or not - all his humans are screwed up, so the halfling point is moot). Too bad if 4E will contain much of this, IMO.

You could be right, but he does have a good eye for detail. At the very least, we can say goodbye to Mialee as the iconic Elf -winces-. These new elves look amazing.

On a side note... I never really understood the whole "Dwarf Gundam Armor" debate until now... I always thought that the posters complaining about that on some boards were referring to some of the ornate, geometric samurai-style helmets on some of the dwarves (which would make them look Gundam-like, since Gundams are supposed to look like giant robotic samurai), but they really do have a dwarf decked out like a Gundam Mk-II in a sketch. Awesome.

the dwarves' geometric style is a good idea. but they took it a bit too far for my taste

Well, I don't think the second picture is any good either, but I wouldn't use a single bad picture as justification for condemning the whole style. It really works in a lot of other images. This is a great image that shows off the geometric styling being used very well, and I really like the geometric armor designs in this image (lets ignore the Gundam Armor in that image for now).

Does that dragonborn look to anybody else like he needs some kind of bite attack? His teeth and jaw structure seem to kind of suggest it.

He might get it. They were really pimping the racial feats for a while as a means of doing things like upgrading your eladrin with more eladrin-ness (eladrinity?), and your tiefling with more tiefling-ness, so maybe dragonborn will have that option as a feat choice.

We need words for all of those qualities. I like eladrinity. Tieflingness, though, should maybe just be Tief. "That guy can stick his hand in a fire and not get burned, he's got a lot of tief in him." "He's really tiefy." I think this could be a boundless source of amusement.

Tieflike?

Tieflike?

Tieftastic.
