I haven't posted in a while cause I liked doing big posts on Tumblr. Been working on a new series of proxies using updated versions of an older frame of mine and a public-domain/stock-owned trained generator. The idea is focusing on what I am actually good at which is graphic design and art editing. Personally, I like the results. We have an Art Nouveau-inspired set, we got a Kaiju 80's anime set...

Hell we even got a set of lands inspired by the gameboy! So, this is *not* real pixel art. This is the part of the card I find interesting, the most. It is the result of a pretty complex script I wrote for Photoshop that takes a (rather poorly done) AI pixel art (in full 32 colors) that is about 8 times the size of this, uses an algorithm to try to correct for common pixel art errors, then resizes it (dithering patterned) to the right size for the GB (but a bit wider), rescales it again (NN) to 4x size, applies color filtering to the GB 4 colors, then adds in a faux pixel gird (its not perfect). I edit it before the grid for mistakes/errors. That image (below) is filtered onto the screen of the token PSD. The land as a whole was made in Illustrator, and Photoshop, and used Firefly (I have a commercial license) for the stock image pixel art.

Also doing some tokens :) Been a busy last two months of work. This shouldn't be a surprise but most AI "art" is really poorly composed and riddled with errors. A lot of them I can edit, paint over, etc, but there's a lot I simply cannot. But it is also obvious which stuff I did earlier and which I did recently; as Ive gone at it It has gotten so much easier to do larger re-paints and edits. So I'm hopeful.

So I finally got thru most of my nearly 9,000 card collection organized by color. A Dakkon binder for the rares, the MTG one for the foils, and a tribal dragon cover portfolio on the way which my Dragons will be moved to. A Garruk box for my 5 color Dragon and Sliver decks. I got box full of repeat spam that I was refunded for, and a stack my favorite creature types that I expect to put in a binder ... Now what? I do have a couple things still coming ... 🏹 ⚔️ 🐲 🐉 🔥 ⚡ 🤠 ☠️ 🧛 🧝 🧚 🧙 🦄 D&D Guild Of Fantasy Art www.facebook.com/blackbladeofdragonhead Games, Guns& Dragons www.facebook.com/dragonsandtanks #mtg #magicthegathering #mtgproxy #mtglegacy #mtgcube #mtgmodern #oldschoolmtg #mtgvintage #mtgcommunity #mtgedh #mtgcommander #edh #mtgcustom #custommtg #mtgaddicts #mtgtokens #elderdragonhighlander #mtgoldschool #mtgart #mtgstandard #mtgdaily #mtgcard #mtgtrades #mtgcollection #mtglife #magicthegathering #magicthegatherincards #mtg #forgottenrealms https://www.instagram.com/p/CSdQN59s2jl/?utm_medium=tumblr

Fwooowwsh!! Here goes part of a new release of my Animated Tokens!! ‘Animated cards’ to collect and bring to your card/board game tables! (mainly Magic, but there should be other uses).

Current WIPs

Some of the Work in Progress(es) that I am progressing work on (lol) for upcoming magic content. Much more time is spent working on the frames, layout, and UX because my time has been freed up with art editing (versus art illustration). Some proxies >:) Want to ideally do a few sets, conceptually thinking an 80s anime kaiju set (like a secret lair? I guess) and then unique "commander pack" sets that are little collections of cards (with the commander) relevant to a specific commander, like Atraxa (or Vilis is my other post). The Sheoldred here, conceptually, would be some sort of promo given out when I ship anything this year, but it's not satisfactory of a design yet for me.

Also have more tokens wrapped up, but those are less fancy aren't they?

Been using Adobe Firefly as the Art base for the card illustrations (everything besides the base art is made from scratch by me, since my focus is being a graphic designer and art director). This has been going well, but requires a lot of repainting, which at first seemed daunting, but now is getting pretty straight forward.

No one looks at my tumblr any way so who cares if I post this here.
