In the new Magic: the Gathering set, called Dark Ascension, for the first time they have included double-sided cards, representing creatures that have the ability to transform into a different and usually much more terrifying version of themselves. In my case, I was asked to paint a trapper who's nursing a bite-wound from...something. What he becomes (after that sun's done setting) is this guy:
Ravager of the Fells, 12 x 16 in., oil on masonite
well done!
ReplyDeletelooking good
these are great Chris- wuv em!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cool concept and awesome execution, man. These pieces are great!
ReplyDeleteLove that top piece. I hope one day my paintings sell enough to begin collecting other peoples works.
ReplyDeletelove the warm light in the first one! don't forget to show "Mikaeus, the Unhallowed", looking awesome!
ReplyDeleteWhen paired together, that sunset lighting on the first piece becomes all the more ominous. Great job on both man!
ReplyDeleteHaven't checked your blog in a while and SWEET JESUS look at all the updatey goodness. Gotta echo Matt Stewart's comment about the sunlight, awesome stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteJust awesome!

ReplyDeleteDear Chris,
ReplyDeleteI came here looking for the author of this art, and I need to say you thanks a lot for making the best art I've seen in years on Magic.
I love the world of lycans and you did a really good job with this one, I hope it becomes someday wallpaper of the week... Do you have any High-Quality picture file to share? :)
Cheers.
Jose.
Jose - Thanks! Unfortunately I'm not allowed to share larger versions of any of these pieces, it's in our contract. Sorry about that.
ReplyDeleteOh :( well never mind, I'll start to fight against Wizards to make one wallpaper of the week with this guy :P
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Jose.
best painting of the set, that color scheme is brilliantly simple
ReplyDeleteMy favorite art of the set, and of any set in a long time! Glad to know that not everything has gone digital
