Ah; another MacDougal fan. I've been wowed by his art since I bought GURPS
Witch World way back when.
I like Prescott too. Macdougal's my favorite but Prescott has a certain
strange style that fits SR very well. Wouldn't want to see him do my
Champions book though. :)

Actually I've been very impressed with Shadowrun Art in the more recent
books.

On to Elmore though. He's a very good painter. But... every single one of
his women looks like the same person. I've been told it's his wife. he needs
to get more models though.
