Art with a story. Real people in a place, wearing real (fantasy) clothes. Love it.

Needs moar buckles.

Needs moar buckles.

Quiet, you fool! They'll hear you!!

 

[Snapdragyn]

Aren't they all a bit overdressed for adventurers?

This straight up makes me misty.

Sensibly clothed and everything something is not right.

Sensibly clothed and everything something is not right.

Clearly a supernatural cold has descended, forcing them to don every article of clothing they possess and huddle around the fire to survive.

In the next scene they are attacked by winter wolves and all die horribly, unable to fight effectively while weighed down by such massive volumes of armor. If only they had been properly half-naked, some few might have survived. Oh, the hum... elv... half... dwarv... oh, the being-anity!

• Adventurers by a fire? Awesome!
• That grey-haired Elf is talking, even though the other Elf, Halfling, and Dwarf are trying to sleep. The (human?) in the bottom-left is clearly annoyed. The (human?) between the two Elves is just ignoring him in the hopes that he'll shut up.
• They're all really close to that fire. I guess that's what happens when you don't bring blankets.
• With all the previews incoming, maybe we should combine them into one superthread? Or, like, a Starter Set Previews thread, a PHB Previews thread, etc.? @Morrus?

 

[Thaumaturge]

Won't someone please think of the cosplayers?

That is a very nice piece. I still have mixed, leaning negative feelings for the torn paper look, but the art is wonderful.
