Huh? By Foglio brothers, do you mean Phil and Kaja? Cause if so, Kaja's not Phil's brother, she's his wife Or are there other Foglio fantasy artists out there that I am unaware of?

old vs new from the looks of the results. Flashy vs tradional

Larry all the way. His art has inspired more heros and villians for me than any other artist's.

/agree

I'll have to vote Elmore since my favorite isn't there.

Out of those here, definately WAR. Sam Wood is my favorite, though. Although he does have a few bad pieces here and there throughout the books. His orc picture in Savage Species where the orc is being shown the no dogs, no orcs picture (not that he's looking at it) is a particularly bad one. His glabrezu is pretty lame too, especially compared to WAR's in DoF.

Lockwood is great at dragons, but not as good at anything else, IMO, as SW. And WAR draws like Marc Silvestri. Every time I see his stuff, if reminds me of late 80s X-Men.

Out of these Todd Lockwood, but my real favorite is Richard Sardinha.

I'm not really into fists thrice the time of a head and arms twice the time of the chest. WAR is a talented artist, and when he wants, he got the proportions right (his pic of Hathor in Deities & Demigods is excellent), but usually, he just make the same picture over and over and over again, a big, ridiculously hulking, shambling, misshappen monster, with feet that could fit in no known type of shoes, lunging forward with its jaws wide open.

Pretty much smack on why I hate Wayne Reynolds. That is, I hate his art. He's probably a nice guy . I would add that he puts in way too many little lines mostly in his B&W art to add texture and get in these obscure little details. There's so much filled in that I find myself getting tired just trying to digest the picture.
