[QUOTE="Bran Blackbyrd, post: 1733934, member: 1710"] I'm pretty sure that people who worry too much about the iconics fall into that category. Seriously, why are some people so hung up on the iconics? Don't they have their own characters to play? The iconic characters don't even appear in the majority of the 3E artwork... I didn't realize so many fantasy books were illustrated... [IMG]http://www.cannet.com/~warlocke/temp/rolleyes.gif[/IMG] You DO realize that you're hardly ever going to have a situation where two people are going to agree on what a character from a book looks like, don't you? You state at one point that it would be nice if characters looked more medieval, then you say more like fantasy literature? Which is it, because I can assure you that these are two different things? The old art failed spectacularly on so many levels to do so many things, I don't see where this is even relevant. Before 3E, all wizards got to wear a robe and then choose between pointy hat or metal skullcap. That's so awesome, let's go back to that! :p The bottom line here is that the D&D art apparently doesn't fit your exact image of what it should look like and you wish it did. Good luck. There some other people in the world too. [/QUOTE]
