Hey, everyone's mentioned it in their reviews, and it was the first thing that popped out to me when I got it, so I thought I'd start a threat on it.
I LOVE the artwork. Much of it has a style that seems very fluid and conveys what my image of Shadowrun's Europe should be. Very dark, very gritty, and with a touch of subtle yet powerful magic. My favorite pieces were on p9, p75, p86, p91, p102, p127, p174, p221, p235, and the full-page on the Tir nA nOg section. I especially love the picture on p86...it just looks so friggin' cool... There were a lot of images that seemed to be almost abstract in the fact that they seemed to be nothing more than black smudges (the full-page for the Allied German States is the biggest offender), but there was so much good artwork that it was hardly noticed. Personally, though, I can't stand the style of art that was used on p231 and the full-page for the Scandinavian Union. There were a few of these pictures in DotSW and I hated them then too. Maybe it's the fact that everyone in those pictures seems to have the complexion of a 14 year old boy living above a Crisco factory, I don't know... Seriously though, I LOVED that picture on p86...anyone know which artist that was? I'd love to get hold of a print or poster of that... The Abstruse One |
