First, Yay for using the unaltered version of the picture of Seoni and Valeros being ambushed on page 25.. always annoyed that Seven Swords altered it to try to hide Seoni doing martial arts. :P

Second, page 36.. did I miss this pic in one of the modules or books, what's it from originally?

Hmm this forum is filling up... I think I'll bump this in hopes of an answer from another fan. ;)

Interesting fact, about the picture in D2... Why was this altered in the first place?

Wow, nice eye for detail you've got there. Both versions look cool, but I agree, why was there a need to change it?

This picture was originally from Rise of the Runelord Part 6: The Spires of Xin-Shalast on page 43.

I heard it was a 'Sharon Stone'-style wardrobe malfunction....

Actually, D2 has the *original* version, which was finished before Seoni's look had been finalized. We had the artist update the image, but it wasn't able to make the final product, so you get to see it for the first time in the Alpha.


Who is the artist? I like that style, it is not so exaggerated and comic-style like others (not that I don´t like comics, but this style is just what I want to see for this).

James Davis tells me it's Imaginary Friends Studios.

Judging from the art I would hazard a guess and say that it is from D3 The Demon Within.

Thanks for the info Gentlegiant. Should pass that onto the Pathfinder wiki people.

Could very well be... we'll know soon enough. :-)

Sure... erm, I'll let my people get in touch with their people... or if someone could do that, I haven't exactly seen anything about a wiki, but then I haven't looked either. :-D
