🔥 FINAL DAY! 🔥
This is it — the last chance to back our MTG campaign! 👉👉 bit.ly/421MqB4

I absolutely adore the design of the Hero token by @aleksibriclot.bsky.social

(from his current KS campaign)

Did you find yesterday's riddle? If you did, you can use the answer to figure out what the theme for our next Kickstarter will be! (It will be a long time from now, but we're already planning) 😎

And some more!! Real ink on real paper!!

I had a blast creating the tokens for this booster pack! So here's a little game for real MTG fans... can you figure out this riddle? There's a hint in the illustration of all the tokens...🧐

Throwback to my card Chandra's Phoenix! 🐦‍🔥 Drawing this card was such a crazy experience, I drew it when I was much younger, in front of a live audience, far away from home on a broken a computer...

I had so much fun working on these playmats! I wanted each one to feel like you’re stepping into that character’s world. Available now on Kickstarter! 👉👉 bit.ly/421MqB4

👀 Can you guess which iconic Magic: the Gathering card’s illustration is hidden in these pictures?

This is the final playmat reveal before my Kickstarter launches tomorrow!

✨ You can already check out the full (WIP) version on the Coming Soon page: bit.ly/41RTqSg

And this is the original poster I’m referring to :

"""The army"", my latest token available soon on my upcoming Kickstarter campaign, is actually a rework of a poster I did for a French fantasy book festival! The theme was ""Unconventional"", so I wanted to challenge the perception of fantasy elves and stray from the tropes! bit.ly/421MqB4%22

Game playmat with the illustration of the Thoughtseize illustration from Aleksi Briclot for Magic The Gathering A faery is casting a spell on the ear of what appears to be an elf.

I have received the first sample for the Thoughtseize playmat (with extended art).

Another Magic: the Gathering token done for my upcoming Kickstarter campaign! Behold **Spirit**, traditionally illustrated using water, ink, coarse salt… and a touch of paint for those eerie eyes!
May his moonlit gaze follow you through dreams *and* nightmares. 👺

What do you think?

I think that at this really early step I was focusing on disturbing and impressive look. One step at the the time! :)

It was all about exploration and so in this first step I was mainly focusing on the shapes, silhouettes and look but not too much on the scale. I knew it was about giant creatures but adding depth and scale would come later.

Some pages of my sketchbooks with Concept Art I made for Magic: the Gathering.
Eldrazi and elves for Return to Zendikar and my thumbnails and first comp for my Secret Lair Drop : Artist series. This one was so much fun to work on!

Concept Art for Red Guardian in the movie Thunderbolts*.
Played by @davidharbour. I was dealing with a darker vibe on this proposal, less red and more dark following the tone of the movie. Less Santa Claus and more Spec Ops. This was exploration!
-----------------------

Concept art for Ghost in Thunderbolts*
I’ve started from her previous look and was exploring a more Blackwood vibe following her dramatic evolution as well as the tone of the movie.

Here's another upcoming Magic: The Gathering token! It will be one of the ten tokens available at the launch of my Kickstarter campaign: bit.ly/41RTqSg
