[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 694342, member: 2067"] Do any of you who don't like anime art enjoy any console fantasy videogames? I call thee upon thy question! Since most fantasy videogames are rather heavily influenced by the anime style. But if there's little to no overlap, I just say to those of you who can't stand the anime look: :p A LOT of the art in the recent WotC books are slightly anime-ish, even. Something like the incarnate golem from the Savage Species art preview to me just screams "Hey, that's anime in 3d!" I think people get a bit too caught up in biases. I think you just need to produce art that's good. To the moon with style. I think Joe B's a bit overbiased. And so are many members of the board (of which I'm probably not excluded). But to me, style and substance are important, and whether it's rennaisence oils or medieval woodcarvings or anime spikey-hairs or whatever, as long as it looks good, I'm happy with it. [/QUOTE]
