Zooooom!

My weekend of SCG coverage and completing commissions continues. Nice little EDH pair:

Pimp Bears Gonna Pimp

Few random commissions I've finished up this weekend.

Density of Detail

Part of what attracts me to altering is the tedium of it; achieving precise, miniscule features. Some alters are about creating a particular density of detail (look at that, it's the title). It's alters like these that, when executed well, can really deliver awe from the viewer. Essentially that's what I'm going for in every alter I produce. I want to make cards that hold the viewer's gaze for longer than a few seconds. I want them to wonder how I went about composing the work.

Recently Adam Styborski, writer for DailyMTG and GatheringMagic.com, asked me to recreate a panel from the Doomsday/Superman Saga. Sitting down this evening, I quickly realized that there was a challenge on my hands. Hope you like it Adam!

If I Only Had a Brain

3-D rendered images are hard, so I'm pleased with the way this pair came out. Another great idea commissioned at SCG Cinci.

It's Not Easy Being Red?

Neat little pair commissioned at SCG Cinci.


In other news I decided to not attend SCG Pittsburgh. As tempting as it is, the time's better spent clearing out my queue before Gen Con next week. It's going to be an insane four days filled with games, good food, and awesome people. Hope to see you there!

You Call Him Doctor Jones, Doll

I always try to fit characters thematically with the cards they're going on. Most of the time, it's the people bringing me commissions that have the best ideas. That holds true with this one for sure.


This gold paint is a little addictive...

Pick a Card, Any Card

A new set of business cards came in the mail yesterday. I'll have some on me for SCG Pittsburg (hopefully attending) and Gen Con. Come say hi and ask for one.
