true to form bazaar proxy:


Occult Trisphere


Serum Powder = Memory Jar

The details are obscure, but thats suposed to be memories of Stinkweed Imp, Ichorid, Nether Shadow, and Golgari Gravetroll flowing out of the jar.

I work like 8-10hrs/day now, so have little time for drawing, but I managed to make a few lately. Id be making more if not for 90% of the ppl who write to me card requests failing to ever getting around to sending payment.

Time Bomb Walk


Mox Blood Diamond


minimalist mountain

this was inspired by the cool stylized islands posted here some time ago. unfortunately, the scanner I use tends to throw weird highlights all over flat black ink, bc the background of the card looks totally black in person.

Ancestral Pit Spawn

This was for my friend Josh Smith, who owns something like 1000 pit spawns. this is the continuation of pit spawn based power series that started 2 yrs ago w this black lotus:

well of course. which means, when the payment is not sent, the work is never started. which is why I havnt been making hardly any cards lately.

Nice pic on the time walk, but why oh why did you choose that horribly frame to put that lovely picture on?

you dont like the future sight frame? I thought Time Spiral block time warping theme was apropriate for Time Walk.
I like uniquely framed cards. Mouth to Mouth from unhinged is one of my favoritely designed cards

I hate every frame except for the original Wink
Although i've kinda got used to the 8th ed. frame by now...
Oh and i have a general dislike for textless cards, although it's okay for basic lands and tokens.

I don't like them either, i just got used to them, so they don't bother me much anymore....Really like the old ones (BETA -> Onslaught Frames) they just seem more like "Magic"...While 8th look more childish i suppose.

I actually love the unhinged style, and love the unglued basic land frames. The Time Spiral frame was pretty good as well.

Bob and Owl hiding from massacre in a cave. this is inside joke about why I run Cave of Koilos over Scrubland in my 5c fish deck.

Grim Lavamancers

this was an experiment where I just used paint markers w no erasing (except for text). the left card was the first try, and turned out pretty well, so I did more elaborate alteration on the right card.

All of these proxies are great.  Sorrow's Path is clever.

I really like those frames.  It's fresh and looks more like a poker card with the CC on the left.  They seem like a great medium to work with.

Nice work there vroman, especially the imperial recruiter. I also like the whole frame or unique frame artwork as it really draws the attention to the art itself. The mishra's workshops are amazing, even if they are white bordered. *shudder*

OMG, your Bridge from Below is so much worse than printed!  Nobody plays cards in Vintage that cost 4 or more unless they win the game or are an artifact!  What were you thinking?
