Who'd do the art for your campaign?

[Wee Jas]

Doc Midnight would do mine.

(Do I get extra xp for the plug?!)

No call for getting prickly, sir. I'm just saying I'm experiencing confusion. Like watching this exchange:

Man #1: Excuse me, sir, but what do pickles taste like?

Man #2: Oh, that's easy. They taste like chocolate.

It's a taste thing, and I'm not used to people saying pickles taste like chocolate. They clearly taste like peppermint.

Diaglo, im thoroughly frightened now

Tell me, I'm not the only one who remembers the Tom Wham stuff in 1edADnD

I apologize for my.. prickliness.

I don't revere my gaming, and don't think it would be served by any impressive art. It would probably bring down the art.

Add to that that I generally resent the amount of space wasted in rpg books dedicated to "art", I guess my desire to have fun with art for representing my campeign can be understood.

Oh, and if I HAD to pick a serious artist- I would go with the people who do the Red Star comic book. Their work uses a lot of computers, and they can create some powerful images.

It would be a toss up between Masamune Shirow (of Appleseed, Ghost in the Shell, etc. fame) and Ghislaine Barbe (the main illustrator for Dream Pod 9 and sometimes illustrator for Exalted).

Thanks for lead in. I have never seen this artist before

As for my campaign I would say a little Larry Elmore and a little Brian Froud would do the job

 

[Wolv0rine]

Oh this one's easy. I'm actually playing with a setting I'm hoping to get published when it's finished. And, bingo, I would/will illustrate it personally. So, ahh, ME!

It's the 'one choice' thing, because Whelan and Elmore would be fabulous too.

 

[Larry Fitz]

Michael Whelan is a friend of a friend, I get to see him a few times a year and I 've been to his house. I would choose him not only because he's brilliantly talented, but because from talking to him, I know he would understand what I'm saying and convey it in the pieces... no we have not tried to get him to do LI art because frankly he's not in our price range, though if we sold enough of Streets of Silver.....(perhaps you could each buy 15-20 copies, that would do it, then we could commision a cover for my latest project... )

He has a great series he's done of various characters from the Sherlock Holmes stories as andropomorphic bears that is wonderful in both the sensibility of it as art for children to appreciate and also the drama of the expression to have them convey a message to the more adult of us....

I've been thinking about this ever since this thread was first posted. I think I would pick Keith Parkinson.

Runners-up in no particular order:
The Hildebrant brothers
