Well, the answer is probably there somewhere! I'll take a look.
Maybe a 3/3, maybe menace, something like that. 4 you just hit every game, so people will hold back a lot.
Like if you have 4 lands, this a 2 and a 3, are you evoking it?
That's amazing! I like it and i'll use it, but man, damnit Pinterest :P
Somehow it's nearly impossible to source anything there, and even any deep diving I did on this image only told me what your initial link did: It's from a game called Mobius Final Fantasy, which has an art team of like 10+...
Not all elementals have evoke though, just the reverse.
Alright, I sat my ass down and pounded these out. Turns out there's (mostly) a naming convention to lorwyn elementals. They're either described literally (Briarhorn, Offalsnout) or they're essentially Verb-Nouners (Mulldrifter, Shriekmaw...
Not all art out there is suitable for magic cards. I get that there's literally trillions of images on the internet, but like:
Digital or traditional painting
Level of Quality
Full background (Eg not this)
Medium to high light levels/Contrast (Eg: not this)
this is all independent of the...
Ah. I saw the "You build the cube" printing, didn't see the duel deck printing.
Also has anyone heard of this "You build the cube" thing? It's got like 173 cards in it according to scryfall
I'm not sure I can think of harder things to find art/names for.
Edit: I should elaborate here. Certain planes are harder to replicate the feel of than others. Zendikar's probably the easiest, it's almost literally pitched as "D&D World", and there's tons of D&D artwork out there for use, and...
Interesting stuff! Intrik is a bit much though, while I do have show dominance (shown above) it's far more Vendetta than Dark Banishing. There's something there though.
Impulseive Adventurer might be approaching the mulldrifter problem again. Even though it costs 1 to evoke, 4 is really...
Okay fine :P It was deffinitly a placeholder concept anyways, paired with art I'd been meaning to use.
However, you will pry the flavor neutral, evergreen sounding, not rediclious to say "Dig" from my cold dead hands.
Hows this look?
It doesn't, but I'm beginning to feel like it might just be something I have to deal with. People did compliment the costing on my evoke guys, mentioning specifically that they did feel more like spells.
I think that's down more to curve than how terrible I made the body. The difference between...
So I've got designs I like with both templates, but my brain keeps telling me this is too "custom magic" and that evoke probably is the way to go.
(Yes please just ignore the card on the right is probably magic's only samurai without bushido *take a number* moving on)
These cards are almost...
I'm on mobile here so it's hard to check my work, but is this something they only do with lands? (which I at least agree with from a design perspective. I'd look sideways at a cube where UG and RW were both supported archetypes, but one pair had more fixing than the other)
Like how many...
