Hey Issar,

This thread was inspired by the original eq artwork. A always tried to guess what class went with each race. Some seem easy, others aren't so obvious. I've also yet to see a giant goblin
Yeah, I totally did that too. Keith Parkinson was an amazing artist and really put together some great pieces for EQ. He created the original box art way before the game was complete, so I'm guessing the descriptions that McQuaid and team provided were pretty lose at the time. I always figured that the two giants were actually representative of an ogre and a troll, corresponding with the Dark Elf necro that's featured in the middle. That would be them attempting to represent the light and dark factions in the game, but I could be way off.

In any event, if you enjoy the box art I would recommend checking out Keith Parkinson's work. My favorite non-EQ piece that he did is called North Watch.
