Love the Art Choices

[drskull]

I know you've used public domain art, but I absolutely love the choices you've made.

I think that the art in the more recent D&D incarnations has been one of my biggest gripes. They all seem sort of Japano-Bondage-Weirdo-Fantastic.

You've used actual Medieval style illustrations. That does a lot for me. It puts one in the correct mindset, that there's a Medieval-style world with creepy monsters around the edges.

I totally agree. A sort of Victorian imagining of the Medieval...a la Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe.

Yes that's it exactly! Ivanhoe, and Howard Pyle's King Arthur, very Victorian. It makes me want to play a Paladin for the first time in ages.

Thanks! Glad you like it

I'll post my vote in favour of the art used. The book not only has well placed art but is designed in an easy to read format. Good work.

Would you believe the whole thing was laid out using Microsoft Word 2007?

No. I'll pretend in my mind it's Openoffice or InDesign for my own sanity. ;D
