It looks like today I'm going to have more than the normal amount of Paizo art. Oh, well. They've done some good stuff. Or commissioned some good stuff, more accurately.
A Wayne Reynolds piece where some of the iconics are fighting a bunch of demons and stuff. If I remember correctly, this is Mythic Adventures; the ultra-high level stuff. I think? EDIT: No, it's one of the Wrath of the Righteous covers. But that adventure path was the one that specifically highlighted Mythic Adventures content, so that makes sense why I got them mixed up.
A very skinny gnoll. Technically, it's actually Yeenoghu from a 3e era publication. But he's the patron demon-lord of gnolls and looks like a gnoll himself. There was much better 4e art of him, for what it's worth.
Although I don't remember where I got this, I think I can recognize Master Chief when I see him. Unless it's just derivative of Master Chief, which isn't impossible.
Two versions of the same illustration; orcs in New Paizo. Not a bad piece. These orcs are much more ape-like in many ways than most of their prior illustrations.
Paizo iconics again. Cribbed from the blog, I think.
And again. I know Paizo is proud of their inclusiveness, but in reality, what they do is favor pictures of "tough", unfeminine and unlikable adventure gals. It's a shame that their art is ruined by the use of so many of these iconics, which end up being the weakest link in much of their art.
Yet another.
I don't remember what this is from, but it sure is weird. It begs for some explanation.
Another tough nature girl and her kitty. Sigh.
Pretty classic imagery here, although updated to a "dungeonpunk" aesthetic, as it's often derogatorily (yet curiously accurately) called.
One of my favorite of the wrap-around Eberron covers.
