365 card set

NILgravity · March 2015

I noticed I was slowing down in my painting and drawing a few months ago so as a way to force my creativity to flow I made it my new years resolution to create a new MTG card everyday of 2015 with original art. Sometimes getting the mechanics of the card takes more time than the painting. Check them out I think I'm doing some interesting things http://mtgcardsmith.com/user/NILgravity#.VPxeQF36Wf4

I Love the art and the effort you put into them. Sometimes the mechanics confuse me, but when you get old your brain gets all mushy n stuff. Still, the whole thing will be amazing once you finally get it all together!
I love the art on this one a lot

So keep up the great work!

NILgravity · March 2015

Thanks. sometimes I come up with a mechanic and I can't figure out how to word it or make it work the way I want. So when I'm done I'll put out edited versions of the cards. I'm already making them in MTG set editor

I really enjoy your art a lot and it's awesome, you've inspired me to begin posting some of my artwork on cards, although I haven't yet. Some of the wording on your cards is wrong, if you want any help with wording you can just ask me proper wording and I'd be happy to help you bring your ideas and artwork into your cards.

NILgravity · March 2015

If you post it in the comments I'll make changes to the final version of the card. It's just hard to do it daily and have the wording right.

Polanety · March 2015

Sure, sure! The wording is hard to get right, if you look at my old cards, they are a complete disaster! Keep up your interesting ideas and awesome paintings!

I'm also trying to make it a complete set (or two ~180 card sets) so I want some balance too.

Corwinnn · March 2015

Up to 85!

Memnarchitect · March 2015

Yeah, I can get pretty OCD about templating and wording.
I try to keep quiet about minor inconsistencies, but I tend to say something if the functionality of the card is fundamentally flawed, especially if I'm otherwise interested in what the card is trying to do. I'm usually providing such critique to clarify to other readers of the card what should happen, and explain how do do what-have-you in future.

I'm always glad to look over a wording for someone; just ask. It lets me know you're open to it, and I'm not going to come across as overly fussy.
(That goes for any 'smith, too.)

No offence but an enchantment cannot be a monk.Nice job though.

NILgravity · April 2015

It would be a tribal enchantment. So I should have labeled it as such. @Memnarchitect feel free to critique any of my cards I'm making them in MTG set editor as the "final" version so it'll be helpful for me to fix the bugs.

Memnarchitect · April 2015

@nogalbink
@NILgravity

Also, it doesn't apply in this case, but you could have an enchantment creature with the Monk creature type.

nogalbink · April 2015

You are right @Memnarchitect.

NILgravity · April 2015

Two days ago I hit 100 cards!

Corwinnn · April 2015

I was on vacation! Missed it! WooHoo!! Congrats!! 265 to go!!

NILgravity · April 2015

If you noticed my lack of cards I was in a medical study and didn't have a scanner until today. I did do a painting everyday though so I'll be posting them all today

Corwinnn · April 2015

I DID notice, hope everything is okay, and you were just there to check out the pretty nurses.

izawesome · May 2015

@NILgravity I made a card with my own art with my computers pain but the art isn't good enough, but it looked really good on paper. Do you have tips on how I could get my pictures on paper to my computer

Corwinnn · May 2015

Scanner!

NILgravity · May 2015

@Corwinn I was having an opium patch tested on me. But we were on a blocker so none of the fun stuff was experienced lol

NILgravity · May 2015

@izawesome A scanner (which are only $50 new and most libraries have them or a copy machine that scans if you plug a thumb drive in) then use an image editing program like Gimp. I usually don't touch up the ones on here but my scanner blows out the colors sometimes so I'll play with it to make it look more like the painting. Also these are supposed to be warmups so I try not to spend too much time on them.

*CHALLENGE*
I need to work on my character designs so for the next 13 days I'll be taking suggestions for two official MTG creatures for me to mash up into one For example I just made this http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/ragwing-crow#.VWFbhvlViko a mash up of StormCrow and Wingrattle Scarecrow (spread the word @Corwinn)

This is supposed to be a character design challenge. Gryphons are not interesting in that regard.

NILgravity · May 2015

I used the random Generator instead for today but I think I know how to mash up your two griffens now http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/hazing-imp#.VWQA50_BzGc

Corwinnn · May 2015

I'm looking for two cards now!

I wanted to start you off easy, but you asked for something more challenging!
