[QUOTE="The Green Adam, post: 3535956, member: 50821"] Mutants and Masterminds Exalted As an artist and someone who is very visual I tend to be very disappointed in the artwork used in most American RPGs, especially considering the talent available. The two games mentioned above are not the only ones to use quality illustrations but they use the most impressive work consistantly. I tend to do searches for art on deviantart and other similar sites when I run a campaign and I come across young artists who just blow me away and I think, "Why is no one using this person's stuff?" I'm also a bit spoiled by the art in many japanese RPGs (ever see a copy of the japanese edition of Traveller? A-MAZE-ING!) and the work of the artist in my own group (several of whom are professional illustrators and cartoonist. You know how you really start playing in High School and College? Well I went to the High School of Art and Design and the School of Visual Arts in NY. [B]Everyone[/B] was that guy in your school who could draw really well). [/QUOTE]
