Stirge Art

[Mal Malenkirk]

It's better drawn, but I feel the face of the new stirge is too anthropomorphized. It looks as if it's about to to talk!

It's a freaking giant mosquito! It should appear emotionless. This looks more like an imp of some sort.

I'm thinking they should have gone with more insectoid eyes. His current eyes make him look far too intelligent.

Maybe stirges drink intelligent creatures' blood because they like the screams better

Seconded.

Also, new stirge reminds me of

Body is great, lots of detail, but the face is way too expressive. It reminds me of the Junk dealer Anakin Skywalker worked for on Tatooine. (just like the pic in the post before mine - I could not see the pic when I first posted)

Maybe it's a goblinoid werestirge.

It looks like Tony DiTerlizzi drew the new version. Or someone mimicking his new style.

Actually it makes me think of an imp.

The quality is good

The mouth, which it really should not have, has too much a frown making the proboscis look like a giant schnoz.

As others have said, the eyes look too sentient.

The nipper-claws look like they will give good hold on the victim. Vitally important when trying to explain to a player why it is so hard to tear the thing off.

The bottom right wing has too much of a hand shape.

The belly looks like it has a giant cloaca like opening, I kinda hope it has some vulger blood-crapping ability if annoyed while feeing.

Yea, probably my least favorite art I've seen out of 4E. I mean, its basically a minor annoyance and totally unimportant in the grand scheme of things... BUT WHY, dear God WHY does it have a mouth? I mean its a freaking bloodsucking mosquito-o-death. Simply removing the pupils and mouth would make that a good picture.
