Description
Katanas, kimonos, and a tattooed and evil beauty. These are a few of my favorite things.I can't really comment on who this character is, so until further notice: She's exactly who you want her to be. That's right. Close your eyes and go there.

hmm...hot asian chick. malicious looking tattoos. possible cursed ebony blade of sorrow, evil dark spectral vapors flowing around her, ominously unnatural green eyes shining with fell power.....I wonder if I can ask her out? does she like manga?

I would. You've got nothing to lose. Maybe your immortal soul. But really, who uses those things nowadays?

I love your tattoos and general body paint and markings, they add so much character to your... characters. Lovely painting

The first thing that comes to mind is: "Liliana Vess: Japanese Edition."
Maybe that's because I'm not familiar with Legend of the Five Rings. Oh well, it's still a wonderful piece. Your attention to detail is amazing, as always.

Nicely done.
Glad this for L5R - I briefly wondered if MTG was going back to Kamigawa real soon or something!

I kinda hope they do, if for nothing else than the artwork.

This is just insane. The details, the chosen colors... Yes, it makes her dark, mysterious and sexy.
Amazing job. Love it.

Wow, so amazing. Colours are really beautiful.
But her tattoo make me think about a spider.

Thank you! The spider feel is intentional. She's a Spider Clan samurai, for the game Legend of the Five Rings.

Love the way the light catches her back muscles and the background colors. Really nice.

I'm just boggling at the lighting and little details in this. Every time I think I'm done, I find something else I hadn't noticed yet!

I get my fair share of MtG cards too. I think the art director pays attention to the fans/forums, but I'm not so sure he wanders around my gallery. Maybe I should send this along, with a "Hey! Gimme more cards!"

got a friend who's intrested in doing cards.. how does one get in touch with the art director??? ^^

Email probably works, though I imagine not super well. You have to figure he gets tons of inquiring artist emails every day.
The best way would be to go to a convention, or some other place where you can talk in person. Wizards of the Coast usually has portfolio reviews going all day at conventions, at fifteen minute intervals. So it's not actually that hard to get dedicated time with the art director.
