The Corwinnn Files #4

edited October 2021 in Contests and Challenges


My love of music has recently be reignited for the first time since this whole Pandemic started. I'm very excited to exposing you to musicians and songs that I love and that I think might spark some card ideas!

That's where the Challenge begins. Below you'll find a link to the FOURTH of The Corwinnn Files. It's a playlist with 10 songs.

Your challenge is to select a song from the 10 songs in the playlist, and make a card that YOU think represents that song. You can use any artwork that you think fits your card. You are welcome to name the card after the song, but you do not have to name the card after the name of the song from the playlist, you can name it anything you feel suits the song, the card and/or the connection you feel they have to each other.

When you post your card, be sure to include a link and let me know what song from the playlist it represents, unless you feel confident it's obvious.

Example Card
Noche Acosador

Rules:
Limit 10 entries. One entry per song. 
MTGCardsmith cards are required, but you can submit from other sources as long as the image links to the MTGCS version.
Un-cards are acceptable as long as they fit the song.
New cards only!
Songs from the playlist only!

End Date: 10/21/21

Prizes:
First place gets 5 favorites and an official MTGCS Playmat.
Second place gets 3 favorites.
Third Place gets 2 favorites.
Honorable mentions get 1 favorite.

    Unicorns and princesses and all that.
  • CorwinnnCorwinnn
    @Jadefire, when you said you were making a card, I was secretly hoping for a Unicorn!

    Piece of Your Heart by Meduza

  • JadefireJadefire
    @Corwinnn LOL, I think that was the one given out of this song set.
  • CorwinnnCorwinnn
    @Jadefire - Yeah, it is somewhat specific and yet not specific at the same time!

    Alright! Sorry for the extended delay! Since I'm running short on time here are the final results!
    Honorable Mentions ; @Ranshi, @Revan and @jpastor

    Third Place!
    Hollow Admiration by @cadstar369
    Song: Who Do You Want To Be by Oingo Boingo

    Great feel for the song on this. I love the idea that this is an Enchantment that allows the enchanted creature the opportunity to change who it wants to be. Nicely done!

    Hollow Admiration

    Second Place!!
    Fiery Pursuit by @Jadefire
    Song: Dividing By Zero by The Offspring

    This song had the most entries and was the toughest to judge because they were all solid entries. This card, for me, was visually evocative of the video and mechanically inspired to fit the bill. Good job!

    Fiery Pursuit

    First Place!!!
    Regal Sunhorn by @Jadefire
    Song: The Unicorn Song by Agnes

    Well, well, well. I was just hoping for some fluffy unicorns to enjoy, but this one would be something to put in a deck and play with. What can I say, but I love it!

    Thank you to all who entered!

    HM's please let me know the card you want favored.
    cadstar369 - You have two favorites to pick.
    Jadefire - Looks like you have eight coming your way, plus a Playmat!

    Be on the lookout for another Corwinnn Files coming soon!

    Thanks for hosting another one of these so soon @Corwinnn!  It was another great selection of music for inspiration.
