my favorite Elmore cheesecake



Elmore's not one of my faves, but something about the combination of swordbabe plus little weird dude both in front of a landscape begging to be explored just works for me.

    You got to love the low-levelishness of the dude in the first picture carrying around a frying pan. That's a real adventurer!

    Met Larry Elmore at Comicpalooza in Houston, TX. He is a really friendly guy who does not mind chatting with people. He really seems to enjoy life.

    Big Elmore fan and I too have met him on several occaisions (mostly past Gen Cons). Made him laugh once.

    Really nice, really friendly and just one heck of a damn good artist.

    One of the things I like about Elmore is that his women, while often impractically dressed, at least look like real women and not grotesquely over-proportioned racks of T&A on tiny waists.

    Also, that chick in the first picture has some nicely toned arm muscles. She actually looks like she's be competent in a fight.

    I always figured the little guy in the upper painting was a gnome. That's how I picture them looking, anyway.

    I'm gonna go ahead and say the guy in the lower picture is a xvart, making this the best xvart illustration to date. Nice work, Larry.

    I think that lower picture was on the "Fantasy Hero Companion" from Hero Games. I really liked it the first time I saw it.

    Word verification "hotte" :) LOL

    I also enjoy Elmore's landscapes. They make me say, "Ooh! I want to go over there, up along that treeline, over hills and into that valley!"

    "...the combination of swordbabe plus little weird dude...."

    Now there's a phrase you don't hear every day. Well, at least I don't.

    And I second what Erin said.
