Blog Entries: 1  |  Artwork in the 4th ed. Chaos dex Is it me or is the artwork lacking? There are a few pieces that I like, but most suck. In my opinion, the 3rd ed. art was much better. One that really sticks in my craw, the pic of Oblits in the 4th. I loved the one in the 3rd, but the new one is of what looks to be the older Oblits, and it stinks. What's your opinion?

| I have the same feellings myself, they are lacking that certain...something the 3rd ed. had. The pictures of the cult champions were jaw dropping.

Blog Entries: 4 | Some of the artwork is nice, but that's more the smaller, meaningless pieces. The large ones could use a tune up I suppose, but the Cult champions surfaced in full colour in the Liber Chaotica books and might show up again in the Daemon Codex.

| I didnt think the art was that bad but then again I'm pretty easygoing and dont really have anything against GW right now when everyone else seems to have some sort of beef with them. Baron

| I think it is just GW doing what they do best.....Making a lack luster product and overcharging them. I have no "beef" with GW personally because i cant afford meats after i go to the store.......LOL
