The illustrations look decent enough, and I'd like to recommend it to friends if it's still in print.<br /><br />(I have the Pandaemonium books, but they're rare, and don't look good scanned anyway.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135815543912646655.post-42909169899847479162010-04-25T00:53:09.239-04:002010-04-25T00:53:09.239-04:00Over on the Atlus USA forum, I believe I brought u...Over on the Atlus USA forum, I believe I brought up the re-use of older designs when some of the first shots and magazine scans of SMT SJ were making the rounds. <br /><br />I am personally most fond of KK's designs from the 32-bit era.

No complaints though, as that might have been his most creative era.Eirikrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12708584583156602408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135815543912646655.post-3025207400883668352010-04-24T08:38:06.764-04:002010-04-24T08:38:06.764-04:00Been playing Strange Journey, and sometimes it'...Been playing Strange Journey, and sometimes it's pretty visible how artwork changed along the way (in this case, since Devil Survivor you could see some new artwork here and there for the demons). Compare, for instance, the old and the new Pictures of Louis Cypher/Lucifer from SMT I & II with the most recent ones (pretty much since P3).<br />Love the blog, keep up the good work!Senakanoreply@blogger.com
