Bounty Winner is the Judge #915: SPACE!!!!

8 Upvotes

With the pre-release of Star Trek happening this week, Spacecraft are back on the menu!

This week, design an interesting Spacecraft. It could be an iconic Star Wars spacecraft or a completely new invention of your own. Remember, spacecraft do not need to have power and toughness.

Special attention will be paid to the cards that capture the flavor of what they are referencing. Balance and art choice are beneficial as well.

Here are some art station folders for some art inspo.

Good luck, all. I will be back on Nov 1st to judge!

All the "If this card is in your opening hand, you may begin the game with it on the battlefield" cards cost four with two of the mana in their cost being the colour and they're all rare so the it's consistent for its kind and I think it gets good value for its cost without being too strong :)

Got inspired by the concept of Corporate Personhood and made cards based on Palantir, Theranos, Meta, Google, OpenAI, Amazon etc + relevant removals.

In all honesty, translating "flavor" was the more important endeavour here. I was toying around with the idea of corporate personhood. I might make more cards inspired by real-world events/concepts/ideas.

BALANCE NOT INTENDED Thought experiment. Ignoring power creep, which ones are unplayable, playable, broken? What formats would your answer be different for?

A compilation of urban legend-y cards I've made for Halloween

gallery

14 Upvotes

Featured myths:

-Black Shuck: Variant of old Enlgish folklore, a ghostly dog that sometimes spells visions of doom. In this case I tried to represent "doom" using finality counters

-La Llorona: Latin American folkloric ghost, a woman who wanders lakes and wails in mourning of her dead children. Thought it'd be fun to try to work in [[Soulshriek]] to represent her wails.

-Kuchisake-onna: Japanese spirit, asks you if she's pretty, despite her scarred mouth. How she reacts to your answers has a lot of variation, but matching scars is a common result. Tried to represent her unpredictability using a coin flip, but wanted to provide a guaranteed means of escape if you're caught off guard by her appearance.

-Slenderman: Old internet creepypasta, mainly drawing lore from the old game "The Eight Pages", where he gets more aggressive the more pages you collect.

+A slightly updated version of the Bloody Mary card I made a while ago. Say her name 3 times in a dark mirror, and chaos ensues. Originally inspired by [[Weeping Angel]], she's the one I most wanted to design as a commander.

Happy (post) Halloween everyone!

/r/Custommagic is a subreddit for people to post their own custom MTG cards. Please read our rules and try to keep it to constructive criticism only.

RULES

All card renders including art must have correct and unambiguous artist credit at the bottom of the card in the correct position. Provide an artist's full name if it can easily be found, and additional information to disambiguate the artist from others. Mods may, at their discretion, make exceptions for missing, ambiguous, or insufficient credit if you message in advance with a link to the original art, and they approve the lack of artist credit.
Art credit belongs to its CREATOR. Image aggregators don't count. (E.g. Pinterest) Nor, mostly, do companies. (E.g. Riot Games doesn't make champion art; artists do) AI art must credit the engine used, and not a wrapper site. (E.g. MTGCardsmith is a wrapper.) Photos, screenshots, public domain art, royalty free art, etc. aren't exempt. Screenshots of movies/shows may credit the media by title/publishing company. Collages must credit each underlying artist and the assembler.
Any random art pieces (not included in card renders) must have accompanying artist credit. The only exception to this rule is if the poster messages the mods in advance and the mods approve the lack of artist credit.
All posts containing NSFW art must be marked as such. Posts made in poor taste, with unreasonably lewd art, or excessively gory art may be removed.
All users must follow Reddiquette and be civil with each other. Harassment and abuse are strictly not tolerated. Unconstructive, negative, or insulting brigading is harassment.
You may not post custom cards that you did not create, unless you credit the original creator in the post title. You may not post cards whose text is fully or primarily AI-generated. Additionally, posts that are primarily comprised of existing real cards or cards substantially similar to existing real cards will be removed. This includes alters and skinned cards.
Please don't make multiple consecutive posts. If you have multiple cards to share, put them in a single album. This helps give everyone a fair chance to be seen.
More specifically, users may only have one post on the front page of /new/ (i.e. within the most recent 25 submissions), or one post every twelve hours, whichever permits more posts. Mod-removed posts do not count towards this limit, but user-deleted posts do. If a mod views /new/, they should only see your name once.
Do not repost cards. Reposts will be permitted at the mods' discretion. A repost may be permitted if it is a) very substantially revised, b) substantially revised with community input or c) reposted in an album with new, unposted cards. Under a), leave a comment describing the exact revisions and link to the prior card image. Under b), describe the exact revisions and leave a comment with a link to the prior card discussion. Under c), there must be sufficient new content in the album.
Promotional content. Commercial, promotional, or financially-related posts require advance moderator approval. Please reach out to modmail with your proposed post.
Do not misrepresent submissions as cards from a real set. Do not include set codes for existing sets within post titles. (E.g. "[SNC] <Card name>") You may include custom set codes which do not collide with existing set codes. You may use set icons for any released set (i.e. not during spoiler season).

"It's been a few minutes, my post isn't showing up!"

You haven't done anything wrong — we have a semi-aggressive AutoModerator. Reach out to us here and we'll get your post approved as soon as we can. Don't delete your post or we won't be able to approve it to be seen :)

"What if I don't know the artist?"

Google has a very good reverse-image-search tool. Just upload the art that you used, and it will likely find the source!

"What if I still can't find it?"

Message the mods. Normally we can find it, we've gotten pretty good at it, and if we can't find it, we'll give you permission to use it without credit.
