I realize that I didn't get everyone here, but I tried to pick a good selection of artists. Who do you like? Any illustrations/paintings in particular that make you "ooh" and "aah"?
My favorite pen/inker is Prescott. My style is very similar to his and comic book illustrator Ed McGuiness'. He gets my vote. Favorite illos in SR art: "Nuked Mage Test" MitS, p.51 (funniest) "Grand Melee" CC, p.87 (best combat) "Carnage" MM, p.73 (coolest) |

You mean there's art in SR?
*ducks to avoid the avalanche of complaints* sorry, couldn't resist. I'm usually too busy frantically trying to find a rule to look at art. I do know there's some good ones in there, but I'd have to reread every single page in every single book to be able to tell you what was good. |

How.... DARE you not include Tim Bradstreet.
His art's the only good thing in NAN vol. 1. |

Oh, yeah. I agree with fist: Baxa's work looks like muddled shit. Larry MacDougall's work looks like grey-toned shit.

I wish the vote was specified to interior art.
I love Prescott's work, but Paul Bonner's covers are AWESOME!!!! It's a shame he's not getting more love. |

Personally, I think there should be two polls, one for color art and one for the black and white line art.

Personally, I think there should be an option for the Aztlan sourcebook. ROCKETHORSE!!1 is in a class all its own.

He doesn't do art for Shadowrun anymore, but he was the friggen best. His art was the most "realistic" portrayal of what I imagined the Shadowrun world to be when I picked it up so many years ago. Tim Freakin Bradstreet.
And his cover for the old Vampires Player guuide, Super Hot. :nuyen: :nuyen: :nuyen: |

Yeah, Bradstreet rocked. I also really like Djurdjvic (sp?), whose style is really cool, if totally different from Bradstreets. Dunno why - his stuff just catches me with the atmospherics, I guess.

Yeah Tim Bradstreets "Combat Zone"(I think with the Three sammies leaning on the Mini Van) has to be my Favorite Picture in all of Shadowrun 2 , but from Artists that are still doing SR stuff ... Its gotta be a Tie between Prescott and Bergting , they both have some awsome art |

Yep, that picture is my favourite work of him too. In ED i love Jeff Laubenstein, but i think his work doesn't fit so well in the SR-universe, so i voted Tim Bradstreet (aka "one of the others...").
And who is Mark Zug? |

I like Bradstreet's stuff so much, half of my Shadowrun T-Shirt collection has his stuff on it.

Guys & gals,
Major apologies. I really should have included Bradstreet. My bad. He deserves to be on the list. :( <start the flogging> |

He did most of the archetype color plates in SR3. The one vote for him is mine, mainly because the Weapon Specialist is one of my favorite pieces of SR art, and Bradstreet wasn't listed. I hate most of Prescott's work, but the recent stuff I've seen has been better. Less goofy and cartoony, less OMG BOOBIES! |

Yes, that is a good piece. Nice background detail on that one. |

The way I see it, he was, but his name was horribly misspelled as: *One of the many other artists not listed here* |

Bradstreet or Prescott.
Some of my favorite Prescott stuff is from the Sketchbook Selections which can be found here. Very cool tribal stuff. I'd love to see some work like that illustrating some of the urban tribal elements of Shadowrun. Or maybe even Shadows of Africa... :D |

Funny, I was thinking it reminded me of Starbuck on the new Battlestar Galactica... but then I remembered that seeing their artistic vision of Starbuck was WAY after I saw the picture in SR3. So I guess it's the other way around. :) |
