I can draw better then that I wonder if they would hire me I've been drawing like every week since out of Highschool I would love for them to bring back something like the Firborg just some Giant clasees tha dwarf the humans.
Good to see the Dwarves will be among the Vikings. The teeth stuff doesn't make sense to me, too WARhammerish for my taste. Teeth and pointing stuff on armor, especially pointing upwards, is a really awful idea. The idea of armor (and goes for shields as well) is that you want the blow to skate off of you. Teeth/horns especially when they are pointing in the opposite direction a blow would be coming in are going to have a BAD effect on the person because it's absorbing (and hence the wearer it) the impact energy instead of deminishing the energy by allowing the weapon to skate off the person.
I think MJ needs to take the CSE artists to an http://www.markland.org/ event or two and ask those folks on their input on the armor and why it would or wouldn't work. I'm sure the folks there will lend MJ a helm, armor, and a sword for him to get a idea on what first person prospective on how things should work. Yes, I know this is a fantasy game set in a fantasy world, but there is a point where it can get "too silly" and cheapens the experience for the player, IMO.

maybe the point of bone armor is supposed to catch weapons, if a sword swung at that shield guy gets caught in that tangle of bone it would disarm him. Bone has a tendancy to bind objects that sheer into them alot like wood, so maybe the point isnt to deflet in all cases but to disarm?

And the feline in lower left
Who cares about a cat when there is a badass dwarf?
Already noticed and posted in clan forum, didn't want to flood everywhere
BTW I really hope they will be that square, dwarves shouldn' be slim (yeah i was a bit disapoint about dwarves in last bilbo, not enough fat)
Not so sure I like the Dwarf's look, will have to see more than concept artwork.
I do like the one with the net and trident. Throwing the net as CC would be much better IMO than just casting a spell.
I don't think thatis supposed to be a feline, I'm not reading it that way atleast.

Me neither. It's just an ugly female. I'm curious to know what class can use a net and a trident though. Scout?

Actually, the figure in the lower left reminds me of the Valkyn. I'm really intrigued by the net and trident!
*shakes head* Wait a second! I will NOT be lured by the filthy viking race, no matter how cool it looks!
