I read through the Game Design Process article, and saw its section on Graphic Bible. I feel like mood boards should also be in there. I was wondering what other sections designers/artists like to have.

Sections for an Art Bible?
As a 3D modeler I want complete, approved, signed and stamped reference sheets. Noting worst than learning you will have to remodel a building because some one wanted more natural lighting.
Also cropped images, of key assets. It takes a lot of time to model a armour set, only a few seconds to cut out the boots if that is all you want.
If the game has a system where the color of something (clothes, pets, mounts, houses) is determined by (dye, paint, or genes), then this kind of system absolutely needs its own section. Cant tell you how many times I've seen a kludged, broken system where they didn't establish the full range of colors, number of colors, number of textures, number of body parts or clothing article types, etc. early on in the design.
