I disagree; her cards are some of my favorites. The runners she drew have=
more
personality than most of the others. I especially like Ajax.

And I don't like Karl Waller much. I kind of like The Preacher, but I =
hate
Domino and Cherry Bomb.

So, yeah, it's a matter of opinion. I just had to get mine in, so they =
wouldn't
be too influenced by yours! :)

Other artists I like:
Paul Bonner (Cannonball, Knuckles, Stomper, Wishbone...). He does good
metahumans.

Tom Baxa (Grandfather Bones, Razorback, Titan). He also does good =
metahumans.

John Matson - did he draw anyone besides Reaper? Reaper is my favorite
character.

Joel Biske - I really like Red Widow, but I don't know of anything else =
he did.

Jeff Laubenstein (Orion, Bam-Bam, Jack Skater). I think his stuff =
captures the
feel really well. And I really like Orion.

Artists I hate:
Therese Nielsen (Shasta, Tinkerbell). I just hate those two pictures. I =
think
real female shadowrunners would look more like Viper or Nightshade, not =
like
some ridiculous male fantasy.
