Bundle Up!

These look amazing! I can wait to have the book in my hands.

Paizo blog on the weekends? What sorcery is this!?!

I love the artwork though.

Those are some might fangs Imrijka has!

Sorcery by robot hands, methinks...And appropriate for this Reign of Winter! MWAH HAH HAH HAH!

...sorry, got a bit carried a way there. :D

The troll and the pixie are really well done! Beautiful stuff!

I like the human clothing...very reminiscent to what I have seen in Slavic Fantasy movies...works for me!! Both Dmitry's art style rock.

I'm sorry, what? All I heard was "Reign of Winter Player's Guide."

GIVE IT TO MEEEEE!!!

The troll and the pixie are really well done! Beautiful stuff!

That's an atomie, not a pixie! But I agree, they are beautiful stuff!

A veritable rogues' gallery in the first line-up. :-)

The artwork was really, really amazing stuff for this adventure. Sarah, her team, and the artists themselves brought their A-game to this AP.

Can't wait!

And amazing art, as ALWAYS.
(Last night I Liked the FB Pathfinder Art group - where had it been all my life?)

I want his gloves. :)

I'm hoping for a lot of Slavic inspired monsters this time around. If there is a more extensive PG coming out I look forward to it. But I have a little guide in People of the North which I really do appreciate. Thank you, Paizo!

So Adam what makes this such an eagerly anticipated release for you?

Is this east-coast blizzard just a giant Paizo marketing stunt?

So Adam what makes this such an eagerly anticipated release for you?

Well, despite hating the cold, I certainly love the subject matter of Baba Yaga and getting to tell cool stories with generous hints of folklore, so that's a big bonus, but main thing is that this is the first AP I've worked on from its birth to its release date. I was involved in the brainstorm and outline process and have really worked closely with Rob throughout its development process.

...but it's cool if y'all don't, too. I understand. ;)

Those are going to make some awesome pawns. :D

Congrats Adam, on your accomplishments thus far... I'm really stoked about this AP as well... Couldn't wait til SS was over with, to be honest with you. Looking forward to see what goodies you and the Paizo gang have in store for us.

I love the artwork, but I'm a bit confused by the troll. It doesn't really look like a Pathfinder troll so much with that big nose and lack of serious underbite.

It's bad enough that so many Paizo illustrations feature cleavage windows and stripper dresses, but do Lini and Feiya really need to walk around half-naked in the midst of a snowstorm...? It's weird that you guys still try to keep up with the cheesecake quotient of conventional fantasy art when you're getting everything else so right. (And the NPCs and Amrijka are just perfect!)

I'm certainly looking forward to the adventure path though! Sounds like an original approach.

Cool! The artwork of the Atomie is just what I want! Beautiful!

Also cool the Atomie gets some sweet love and attention! I love it when rare creatures get the artwork and cool enemy/ally role, that is something I sometimes wish was done differently, because Hill Giants, Goblins and Trolls (and other such famous creatures) always get the artwork in the AP's I wish the more rare creature that are used in the AP's get the artwork instead in the future.

In Shattered Star however things were really cool, Art of nighthags, Nuckelavee, Scylla, Bythos and Bogeyman, I really loved that! Hope to see that more often in the future, and less Hill Giant, Goblin and Troll art as I know what they look like now :P
I wanna know what for example Totenmakses, Quicklings and Vouivres look like when they are not in a "bad hair" day like on their current pictures.

And pictures really do something about the coolness and popularity of the creatures, because I never really liked Gug, Bythos and Erodaemons until I saw other artworks of them, the one of the Gug holding a Ghast for dinner for example made me change my mind on the creature entirely as the artwork made the creature look extremly feral and awesome, something I really missed on its Bestiary picture, so giving creatures more pictures may help making them favorites and awesome.

But anyway keep up the good work! As paizo still is the best art producer like EVER.

These look very good. I can't wait!

It's bad enough that so many Paizo illustrations feature cleavage windows and stripper dresses, but do Lini and Feiya really need to walk around half-naked in the midst of a snowstorm...?

I'm confused. Lini is half naked? OMG two inches on her arms are exposed!! Call the fashion police!

Feiya, I'll grant you.

Also,
Endure Elements

Lets Lini walk around naked if she wants.

The monsters look ALL naked! Shame, Paizo!

Liking Hestrig...hope she's a helpful NPC, like Ulf.

Soon, Decius, soon

Ah, Endure Elements, what a wonderful spell. There is also Cold Endurance and Improved Cold Endurance from Frostburn which is an older book but still good for this AP.

There is a similar Feat in the Inner Sea World Guide. I don't recall the name or the pre-reqs, but I know I remember reading it.

Obviously the Skimpy Armour mod was activated for this AP..Skyrim joke

Unfortunately, the iconics are always pictured in the one set of clothes they apparently own so people recognize them, just like Charlie Brown always wears that yellow shirt with the black zig-zag. Personally, I find this less jarring than the shot of Alahazra in spotless white robes and silly hat swabbing the deck on a pirate ship.

Can we get one of these art blogs for every product?

Not entirely so. People of the North has Kyra bundled up in furs for the cold weather.

Well, then ... yeah, that's stupid. Heck, even holiday Seoni wore fur-trimmed scraps of nothing.

Doesn't take away from my hearty approval of NPCs dressed appropriately for adventuring in the climate, though.

yeahm iconics in winter outfits would be cool. Certainly cooler than the almost offensivley revealing dresses.

I do enjoy swords of credible proportions, thanks Dmitry.

I've missed these art preview entries. :)

Glad to see Imrijka finally making it into the APs!

I really like that Atomie artwork.

Given this recent weather, the shoes on the humans look ridiculously comfortable right now...

Not entirely so. People of the North has Kyra bundled up in furs for the cold weather.

People of the North Kyra is awesome and looks warm enough to make readers envious this time of year.

Feiya is actually a witch from Irrisen though, so perhaps she's cold-weather acclimated. Also, magic.

I always figured they only wore one outfit because the first one's free at level 1; after that they waste gp that could be spent on other gear.
