Something that has stood out to me about some of the artwork for D3 equipment has been that they remind me quite a bit of some of the art from Final Fantasy XII. Some of the hand to hand Monk weapons remind me of FFIX weapons but I couldn't find any examples online. I have a concept art book but I don't have a scanner.

Also the helmets

Does anyone else see it? A lot of the curves and angles are really similar. I would even wonder if some of the same artists worked on both games but that would be weird.
