With all this talk last week about how much people dislike this or that artist
I thought I'd flip the question around.

What bit of art inside a Shadowrun book do people like most?

My favorite pic is on page 15 of Magic in The Shadows.

In any book, gee I don't know that's tough...but in MITS...page 103...she
moves me...haha, actually I like the picture on page 35 and the other one
on page 97...I totally plan on having a group of crazy dwarf magician
squatters in the pullyup barrens...

Laubenstein's color illustrations from SR1.
All the archetype pix, esp. Decker, Elf Decker, and Samurai.
I really like the gang/tribe pix from the Seattle's Finest, etc. section!

Can't really say which one I think is the best but there is one (in
which book I can't recall right now) picture that made me laugh alot
when I saw it ... It is not the picture in itself but some text in
the background "Debbie Does Trolls" :) yihha .. auch ... Think it is
in the Underworld Sourcebook ... somewhere in the end. Well that
fancied the sick and twisted humour of my players and myself atleast
..

I find that I usually like to look at the graffiti and signs in the
background than looking the pictures themself. I find it much more
amuzing.

I enjoyed the pic in Underworld where the nervous looking doc is
elling some lungs to
a guy in a suit... very nice... Also all the Mike Jackson pics ever...
he's the man

I said it before, and I'll say it again; anything done by Tim Bradstreet. I
loved his stuff for SR2, and I don't know if he's done anything else for
FASA.

That's a good one.

My votes are for: any Timothy Bradstreet pics (check out some of the 1st ed.
adventures too).

That one pic in Corporate Security of the Rigger jacked into the building.
(I think it was Nielson). The art wasn't overly fantastic (his normal work)
but the concept behind it was pretty cool.

And, as much as Laubenstein may be dissed, I really liked his color pic in
Tir Na Nog.

I think it was SR2, but his Totem poles in the Shamanic magic section
were cool.
