The picture you're using for Saint Kargoth is cool... but it looks more like Abis Maul than the traditional Kargoth (who looks something like this).

There is a half-way decent pic of him in Dungeon 150 (since you have to fight him), but Paizo never released the supplemental PDF for that issue. Possibly due to the licensing issues.

I've been adding artwork to many of the entries. If you know of a perfect picture online that works for an entity (and is not stealing from some one without their permission) feel free to suggest and point me toward the piece in question with a link (not a pic) in this thread.

Never cared for those girly boy angels that were so popular with artists back in the day, so Mike and Gabe didn't make the cut.

And for some reason Wayne Reynolds thought it was appropriate to break Malcanthet's neck before he drew her, so his pick didn't get in either.

And finally, I felt Red Shroud should not be quite so tall, so I tried to find a more appropriate picture. The other ones were all excellent and have been incorporated.

This is the only image of him I've ever seen with a bow. I was hoping to find you an image of him on his Alternate World phantom steed, but I've never seen him depicted mounted.

Other than the world's worst picture of Titivilus, all of these pictures work great, Phaedros. Truly, I wish the Tome of Horrors had an online gallery...their pic of Titivilus is pretty much perfect. And their Moloch isn't bad either.

Myth, I messaged Taurina to see if she is willing to let me put her artwork up on the site. If she is favorably disposed, it will go up.

Hey Myth, Taurina said I could use the pic, so it is up in the entry. She has a really extensive website with a lot of fey themed pics. Really nice work.

I've updated the blocks with more pictures. Nearly every devil has a picture now. Planetars and fallen planetars seem to be a particular sticking point, since I have trouble finding good pictures of them.

I poured through pic after pic on the net. It is HARD to find a feminine pit fiend.


These were the runners up. They don't look pit fiendish enough.

You definitely made the right choice. The other two look like they would work as an imp and a fallen, respectively, though. Well, if you can get the latter to stop twinkling.

I've seen something that was definitely intended as a female pit fiend before. The one you picked was definitely better, though.

That picture is by Azazel1944, a Chinese artist best known for his erotic Warcraft paintings (all softcore, but obviously NSFW).

Gwynharwyf, Bogromar and Tetradarian have new art. Apollyon is fixed so you can see his image.

You haven't been looking on the right websites, and dear God, I wish I did not know that.

If you've got a suggestion for art work for an AW entity, post it as a link in this thread. Keep in mind, I'm more likely to accept pics of entities with no artwork yet than change those that do have some.

I have to admit, it's interesting you used that for Pearza. I expected Baalzephon or Zimmimar to get something like that, given their GoH descriptions listed them as the humanoid/erinyes-like ones, not Pearza, who'd definitely totally pit-fiend by description.

Any particular reason for making the researcher the hot one, Kain?

Why would anything from GoH influence your thoughts concerning Alternate World?

Because there is some carryover.

From what I have seen, the so-called carryover stems from both GoH and AW using 2e flavor.
