Gatecrash

Some new (well, newly released) Magic pieces to share today! Though the shock land was likely to be the most popular of the pieces (for card mechanic/playability reasons, not necessarily art related), I think that little guy on the end stole the show. Actually, I feel there isn't much higher a compliment that a Magic artist can be payed than to have their art used on a particularly weak card and yet have people still enjoy it. I don't know who invented the name "Fblthp", but well done.

"Stomping Ground", oil on illustration board, 11x15

"Deathcult Rogue", oil on illustration board, 11x15

"Serene Remembrance", oil/digital, 11x15

"Totally Lost", oil on illustration board, 11x15

These are gorgeous. They don't look like oil paintings at all. I don't know how you do it but great job haha.

Do you scan your paintings or photograph them?

I use the magic card of this illustration as a bookmark for my most challenging reads. Somehow it makes topics simpler.
