Lower right hand corner.

It's a daily top 10, or something.
 
I wish that more western artists would branch out and create very whimsical, vibrant images like a lot of the ones posted in this thread.

I feel that, generally, what we do over here (US) is made more generic due to a fixation on creating something that emulates what we perceive as "real" instead of embracing colorful fantasies.

Though it could be that I'm looking at the wrong stuff.
 
It's something I noticed as well.

WRPGs are especially guilty of this. I can't decide if the influence of D&D is just that pervasive or if D&D itself is a symptom of whatever is shackling western art.

Yeah, I agree. Of course there are exceptions here and there, but it's for the most part something the west has been associated with in terms of art. Also one of the reasons I play very few western games.
 
That tree...

Looks kind of gross.

Like a wrinkly old arm.
 
I never knew LSD was so popular in Japan.

It's more a symptom I would say. Early D&D art is a lot more vibrant and cartoony than what came later.

Thinking about it, it probably traces more back to everyone wanking to be Frank Frazetta.

EDIT: Oh, autocorrect. I'll leave your typo in the previous sentence intact.

Are you a member? You have to be a member to view full size pictures. Just click on the picture when on a picture page, and it will bring up the full res version.
