Description Disney princesses are often depicted with an army of adorable forest critters. And, like them, our lovely Somberwald Sage here has perfected her relationship with nature to the point of commanding teeming legions of obedient forest vermin. Difference is, she’s not afraid to use them to their true potential.

If, for example, she were Sleeping Beauty: She would have launched wave after wave of adorable singing animals against Maleficent’s castle. Then, with the castle as a stronghold, wage a campaign of conquering that puts the ancient Ceasar’s to shame.

For Magic the Gathering. Copyright Wizards of the Coast. Art directed by Jeremy Jarvis.

These are crazy awesome! Your artwork rose up while playing the game.
I don't usually focus on the art but yours was something I could actually rest my eyes on.
Very nice, thank you.

stevenoirproduction [2012-05-26 20:36:20 +0000 UTC]

This is spectacular. I don't know MAGIC, THE GATHERING. I mean, I know what it is. But is the character design yours? She is beautiful, and the animals are amazing, but what sticks out for me are the textures of her costume. The corset is fantastic, as are the gauntlets, and the cape is out of this world. The tattered edges, and the fringed hood... After you see them, you think, Of course! But I've never actually seen a cape quite like that.

Cogmancer [2012-05-26 19:43:13 +0000 UTC]

the lighting is well done, and I love the attention to detail. It took me a little bit to realize that her hair was red and not the dreadlock looking pieces of her cloak hood hanging down. The picture seems a little bit too busy with having all three animals in one picture, but it doesn't change how cool the design is

I LOVE the layout you did, with her pulling the hood from her face as the owl lands. Your attention to detail is awesome - the tattered edges of her cloak and the design on her (I'm not sure of the correct name) the leather perch/brace for her owl.
Is this traditional work? Either way, I'd definitely add this to my collection of wall-art =]
