[QUOTE="Neo, post: 553320, member: 4139"] Well I got tome of horros just prior to Christmas and although I wouldn;t say the art was wonderful, it was good enough for the most part, certainly not on par with the Lockwood dragon pictures from MM1 maybe but good enough. The only art gripes I had were in relation ot a few of my old favourite creatures, namely the Shadow Demon and Phantom Stalker both of which were originally in the D&D cartoon as well as the Fiend folios appearing as they did in the cartoon yet in the ToH they look radially different which was disappointing. then theres the Cave Fisher, which just doesn't look frightening anymore. And the Cambion the old picture of these from the 2nd Edition Monstrous Compendium inserts was a real gem, but the picture in ToH looks totally different and uninspiring. but these are just a few I found annoying, there were some real gems I felt in the art department also like the Disenchanter, the Dracolisk, theOinodaemon, Orcus, Cloud, Mist and Faerie Dragons etc. As such on the whole I think what you get art-wise is pretyt much the same as you get with any other Monster book released too date a mixed barrel of fish, with some good some bad.... On the whole I really liked the book. [/QUOTE]
