#wizardsofthecoast
1000 follower thank you contest!
I’m happy to know that so many of you enjoy what I’m doing. Even if about half is unused bots, lol. As a way to show my appreciation, I wanted to give someone the chance to get a free magic card art alteration (digital) to use however you’d like.
Here’s how it’s going to work:
All you have to do is reblog this post, saying the card you want, and the kind of art you want for it. You don’t have to be following me for the contest, but you do have to reblog while commenting. Just commenting won’t be enough.
Rules:
It has to be Safe for work.
To keep things on brand, it has to be magic related. Things like grand abolisher but from Tarkir. A phyrexian commander alt. Anything magic related. Wanting a commander alt with Darth Vader will be disqualified.
Comment with your idea.
How the winner is picked:
Out of all the reblogs, I’ll be picking 20 users who comment with my favourite ideas and from those 20 I will be randomly drawing to pick the actual winner.
CONTEST ENDS: August 22, 2019 and the winner will be picked within the following week.
I’m excited to see what you all want! If you sadly don’t get the art I will do similar contests on my other social media locations once I hit the same kind of numbers.
Hey everyone! I know that when I post the art it takes a while to post the blog post that goes with it, so I’d like to thank you all for your patience. This is, of course, a hardened scales for my Ghave commander deck. My idea to get the “scale” effect for Ghave was thinking of artichokes. And I tried to make the harden effect look like metapod’s hardening in pokemon.
I’d love to hear if you guys have ideas for the kind of flavor text I should use for this card.
Oh one final thing, I’m like… 7 followers away from hitting 1000 followers. So expect the next post to be about a contest to get a free alt like this.
Card: Harden Scales
Commander: Ghave, Guru of Spores
Gishath, Sun’s Avatar
Ok folks! I’m finally done with the backlog of commissions and can start posting some of the other stuff I’ve been working on this week. Which will let me start posting just the art again.
The person wanted a skeleton gishath for the actual card, plus a custom card they designed. The custom card is RBG so I think the art fits the custom card a little more then gishath.
Marchesa, the Black Rose
I’m so happy to share this one! The person who wanted it had such a vision and goal I was so happy to bring it to life for them.
I started doing these altered arts for this very reason. Making a commander deck feel more like a story and not be restricted to only cards printed from specific sets. I truly hope they play the hell out of a marchesa phyrexian deck.
Ok. Now I’m gunna post my own personal art soon now that I’m out of commisions.
Animar, Soul of Elements
Hey everyone! I’m back again showing off my next commission I was asked for. They wanted animar and we decided to go with an Emrakul feel this time around. I had so much fun with this one. I can’t thank them enough for coming to me.
Getting these requests has really helped with being able to actually call these pieces finished. I have 1 more commission in the works and after that I’ll start sharing my own personal art again as the single image posts.
Adeliz, the Cinder Wind
Another commish I’d like to share! People really want the eldrazi stuff it seems…
This was neat for me because it was a commander I would never have done for myself personally. It’s not even for an eldrazi themed commander deck if I understood the request right. Just that they really like the eldrazi lol.
I got more I can show soon too. Plus I’m really trying to finish some of my own stuff. I have a kaladesh Sensei’s Divining top coming up and an azorius consecrated sphinx.
Also I’m super close to having 1000 followers! That means a lot to me. Maybe I’ll do something special like a free alt art for someone.. anywho have a good one!
Vial Smasher the Feirce and Thrasios, Triton Hero
Hey guys, sorry for the long absence. I haven’t gotten around to finishing any personal card arts this year so far.
This was actually a commission. The first one I’ve ever excepted. These two partner commanders where what they used for an eldrazi commander deck and wanted them to fit the eldrazi flavour. I had so much fun with the vial smasher but didn’t feel I got thrasios to the same level, but still enough to call complete
I don’t know if this means I’m going to start opening up to commissions or not.. anyone’s more then welcome to ask. But I have to feel confident enough in task and excited enough in the content in order to feel ok doing such a thing.
Happy Spooktober, everyone!

Hakon, Iconic Skald. Picked this up at my local game store and painted it with only minor waiting time sitting on my hobby table. He was a fun paint! Really focused on the shadows and refining the lines between each thing on the mini with shades and highlights. As always, progress pictures at the end. Follow me for more painting adventures!⠀

Three pretty solid days of effort went into this Dragonborn, and he was worth every second. Model is Tazythas, Dragonfolk Rogue by @reaperminiatures. I like to find references for the stuff I paint, just to know what the little baubles are and how other people paint them, but there was not a single one out there for this guy. I picked him up as a new release from my local game store a few weeks ago (although I think he’s from Bones IV?) and was really intimidated to begin. He luckily came in a lot of pieces; his head, wings, tail, and arms were all not part of the body, which was great. I can’t imagine painting all his little crevices with the model glued together. He actually came with a bunch of options for his arms, everything from meat to double swords and a tankard. Pretty cool mini! ⠀
⠀
I didn’t prime this guy because I’ve had a lot of issues lately with my rattle can primer, and hand priming intimidated me with so many details. It worked out though; the factory prime was good on him and I had no issues. In handling him, I had issues rubbing paint off (there were too many pieces to stick on to something else to hold), so I ended up varnishing him four or so times between details. I tried a new process where a gloss varnish is painted on, which when dry makes shades fall only into recesses and not linger on flat surfaces. It worked, but I don’t know how important that was for something this small. I don’t know that I would do it again unless a specific situation arose where it would be useful. Overall though, an extremely fun mini that I’m proud to show off :) As always, progress pictures at the end. Follow me for more painting adventures!⠀

Drow (Dark) Elf Priestess, the third and final of my Drow trio. I enjoyed these three so much; great sculpts, great poses, fun to paint. This Drow was approached like the other two, with the exception that I received my magnifying lamp in the mail about 75% of the way through this one. Game changer! I can’t wait to crisp things up going forward :)⠀

Drow (Dark) Elf Warrior, part 2 of 3 of my Drow trio. Worked on #milliput and shading on the cloak, bringing the red out to the vibrant shade I wanted. I did the face and bases for this mini and the third one (upcoming) at the same time, which was great because the hardest part of the work was done by the time I moved on. As always, progress pictures at the end. Follow me for more painting adventures!⠀

Timber wolves! This is one of the rare minis I bought to use in my campaigns, and they were fun and quick projects. I got to try out some wet blending on the multicolored wolf, going from tan to orange to grey to black. I wish I had gotten a picture, but it looked a MESS before I went over it all with a wash of Nuln oil, which brought it all together a lot more than I expected. Progress pictures at the end, as always. :)

Female Human monk. Man, this was a fail, but in the interest of posterity and improvement I’m posting it anyway. I worked on skin shading, which worked out well until the dreaded enemy…EYES. I lost count how many times I did the eyes for this mini. I was determined to have an iris and a pupil, and it was not in the cards. I’ve gotten really good at thinning my paints, but it didn’t matter for this mini. By the time I was satisfied (enough) with the eyes, the face was so gooped with layers of trial and error all the shading and definition was gone. You live and learn - no more Wizkids humanoids for me for now. Onwards! As usual, progress pictures at the end :)⠀

Drow Elf Elite. This was an extremely rewarding paint job; I worked on shading for the cloak and the skin for probably half the work time on this model. Reaper is so much more enjoyable to paint for humanoid minis in my opinion, at least for beginners. What I originally didn’t like about the style (accentuated eyes, features) is exactly what is great about painting it. The eyes and cheeks welcomed the shading, as well as the cloak. Love the texture! This was also my first finished mini using #milliput on the base. I will get better at working it, ha. As always, progress photos at the end.⠀
