...just kidding! Though I'll admit the change in art was a bit jarring.
Still, I think the new rat art works better for the Working Rat than it does the Talkative Rattus Faber, whom I've always considered more of a naive, pudgy city rat than a hungry L.B. bandit. By the same token, it makes more sense for the Disposed Chief to use the new, lean chief art while the clearly more successful regular Chief uses the heavier build. I know it's probably your intent to use the new art with the old to differentiate the rats better, but until then, I'll just have to deal with the fact that my property manager has really let himself go.

As I mentioned in the art thread... the stylised rats with their scrawny bodies and giant heads don't quite fit the tone - not while the trend in most other art has been toward realism. They're fine pictures, in an ugly-cute way, but I thought the old ones gave a better sense of the L.B.s as believable magic creatures!
