SamuraiSpirit Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Ya know, I was just standing there looking at my 6E books on my bookshelf (top shelf, of course!) and I just had to share a thought... I really think that Steve and Co. have fried up some gold with the whole blue and yellow presentation/design thing It's a simple design, yes, but is it simplistick? no, I don't think so. I look at my books lined up on the shelf and damn if they don't look good. Very distinct and bright and eyecatching. Mind you, all I have at this point is 6E 1 and 2, the APG, MA, Champions and Champions Powers, but still. I think it's a very attractive, cohesive design and I'm really looking forward to the other two Core Books... Vehicles and Equipment Guide, if I'm not mistaken. Let me hasten to say though, that it's not just how pretty they look together on the shelf, either... the interior layout and most importantly *artwork* has taken substantial leaps and bounds forward from previous Hero products, which IMO have always been hit or miss. Champions Powers in particular looks fantastic on the inside. Really, really great art overall from front to back. Thanks for letting me ramble.

Rapier Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Re: A Comment on 6E Presentation Looking down my shelf, a LOT of spines show a great deal of black. 5ER wasn't necessarily hard to locate, but 6E is VERY, VERY easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Long Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Re: A Comment on 6E Presentation Glad to see our fiendish plan is working. Thanx for the kind words! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImperialOne Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Re: A Comment on 6E Presentation It must be a complementary color thing... The bright yellow on powder blue is very striking on the shelf compared to my other books. By the way, technically what is the precise shade of blue & yellow? Can I find them in a Crayola box of (64) crayons? What font and size are used? Thickness of paper? Color of stitching? Really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
