[QUOTE="Wik, post: 3056602, member: 40177"] Yes, yes, YES. When I first came to EN World, one of my first posts was about how the art and "feel" of D&D has changed over the editions. It more or less turned into an edition war, which wasn't what I was going at at all. Those old D&D images often conveyed a scene, sure, but there was definate amount of humanism that just isn't there as often anymore (sure, the character's human... but he's wearing mecha armour and carrying a sword the size of new york state). I went nuts over seeing Dragon #310, simply because of the Larry Elmore cover. Seriously, that's what I was looking forward to. I even mentioned it to my girlfriend ("That's nice, dear. Leave me alone"). Looking at all these old-school images of dragon art is making me seriously wistful. For, as much as Dragon is a great reference (and about the only d20 product I'm faithful to), the art's just not the same as it once was.... *** I kinda want to dig out my dragons right now, so I can list off my favourite images. The one with the shadowrunner is kinda cool. And I wish I could remember some of the Elmore covers I love so much. I really need to dig those up... [/QUOTE]
