What is your favorite basic land art?
>in b4 THAT mountain
>a desert is a plains
>>54510221
It's going to be whatever John Avon did for Unstable... I can already tell.
>>54510253
In a world full of robots that don't need to grow food and can control the weather? It basically is. Just a nice orderly sandbox at a nice temperature.
>>54510221
How is that a plain?
>>54510221
That one, no joke. I snatch them up every time I see them.
Alara had some really great basics.
>>54510221
These. The fact that they exist almost makes me want to buy them for sheer cringe factor when I play them... there's also a Jace the Mind Sculptor like this.
Strap yourself in boys, and find me something cringeworthy... there's also good stuff too, like Altered Full-Arts:

I always really liked the Ravnica lands. Something about the combination of colors and architecture really appeals to me.

>"In geography, a plain is a flat, sweeping landmass that generally does not change much in elevation.

Jesus Christ. I can't imagine the mindset that somebody would have to get themself into, which would allow them to sleeve these and bring them to a LGS.
>>54510367
Really beautiful. Anybody got the island that just looks like Lady Fingers/Lost/Lord of the Flies/Castaway island?
>>54510581
I love running these in my Teysa deck. The ravnica lands are almost all great.
The foil version of this looks absurdly good.
Love me some Avon.
>>54510280
Has that art been spoiled yet?
>>54512271
>Lady Fingers
wha
Outside of full-art lands this one. It's referenced in the art for the blue Leyline of Anticipation.
I'd like this in full-art, or better yet the old land frames. I'm not much for most old borders, but the pre-modern land frames and text boxes just work for me, especially when foiled.
Lorwyn megablock lands in general are pretty great, but the forest in the top right is probably my favorite.
I love this island. So wonderfully... odd.
>>54512695
>art direction will never be as good as it was lorwyn and before
Just kill me now. I'm so tired of everything looking like a shitty fantasy paperback.
>>54512766
Onslaught and Odyssey basics are perfect. Best frame, best art.
>>54510585
>Jesus Christ. I can't imagine the mindset that somebody would have to get themself into, which would allow them to sleeve these and bring them to a LGS.
The kind of neckbeard who just doesn't give a shit anymore. They have a body pillow and a sex toy modeled after their waifu.
They're the 'that guy' in all those threads.

>>54510251
What mountain?
>>54512336
No, apparently there's some big surprise behind it, something they were going to do in Unhinged, but chickened out on, then decided to do it this time around.
Speculating on what that is...
1) We know they're going to be Full Art Lands done by John Avon, they're definitely going to take advantage of his level of detail and realism.
2) Something that they didn't consider back in 2004, but are definitely doing now.
My speculation, in all honesty? Tasteful, Panoramic, Landscape Nudes/pinups, like Pic-related, but full body.
>>54510221
As somewhat of a newfag what are some nice looking swamps?
I want them to have that feeling of death or decay without just being a gray blob or building with the brightness turned down.
Pic related.
>>54514121
Unhinged and Unglued Swamps are nice. I had a friend who was buying unwanted boxes of Unhinged for £30 each (because they're largely unplayable). The guy made a tidy profit just re-selling the lands.
>>54512695
didn't they do something similar in scars of mirrodin?
>>54514159
I remember Unhinged boxes being as low as $20 at one point. There was a big online retailer that was giving them away with large enough orders.
>>54512801
>Uncle Istvan isn't legendary
>somewhere out there is a forest full of crazy uncles with hatchets
also for a hermit he can really keep his hair and beard in good shape
First foil land I ever got, so it has a special place in my heart. Personally though, I find most of the lands to be awesome.
Zendikar 1s edition > innistrad 1s edition > Lorwyn > Alara > other
Pink mountains. Bought them because a complete set was super cheap on Ebay and matched the pink sleeves I got on clearance at my FLGS.
>>54510221
He olde basics are the best.
>>54516054
my oldest mtg card is an island so old, the tap symbol is still T
>>54516054
TAP TO ADD (B) TO YOUR MANA POOL
>>54515974
Urza lands are gorgeous.
>>54512797
These are also top-tier.
>>54512750
I still have a fat stack of these sitting in my land box. They're pretty neat.
>>54514163
Zendikar and I think Kamigawa too.
I probably could've chose a better forest, but I really wanted to include time spiral because I love its overall look so much.
>>54519083
That Swamp is my favorite Swamp.
best mountain coming through
>>54519083
I'm really not a fan of the time spiral lands. They're all too dark and come across as really same-y. They're not nice to look at, and their aesthetic is flat and lifeless (kind of the point, but still).
>>54519192
Real best mountain, stopping by
>>54516054
I agree with you my fedora friend
>>54519519
The entire Kamigawa cycle of lands is excellent. I have a set of foil Kamigawa mountains that I treasure.
>>54510377
>Mfw female sjw in my lgs is always complaining
10/10 buying right now
I also really dig the Amonkhet full arts.

>The cards don't even appear them
you are self publishing yourself in the wrong way
>>54512695
These were great. I've always had a soft spot for the flower and lilypad swamps.
>>54512695
Why don't they do shit like this anymore.
>>54514121
Look at the time spiral block.
>>54521131
Because they stopped commissioning good artists or putting effort into art direction when they realized they could get away with low-effort generic digital artwork.
I don't play magic, but this is neat.
Rebecca Guay Plains.
>>54522563
God I hope the lands for the next commander set look this nice.
If I use basic lands in constructed decks I always use Odyssey lands. The plains is my favourite though I think, it almost looks like a watercolor.
>>54512336
Mah nigga of impeccable taste. Shout out to all the Alara lands though, they're great flavor.
>>54510221
Its a John Avon but not a full art. The razor grass from original Mirrodin.
>>54521174
Kaladesh basic lands were preety good though. Much better than the average recent.
>>54510377
>korra is black mana
somehow that's the bit that offends me
Invasion forest 347
>>54523237
That would look really painful to move around in.
>>54523444
This is an image board you know. You could have easily posted the image instead of looking up the number.
>>54526410
It's okay if you're a robot.
>>54519300
The dark and lifeless look can work well for setting the theme of certain decks. Especially if you were splashing the color into a zombie deck or something. It's the same deal with Innistrad lands (which are pretty great IMO).
>>54522526
>We heard that you guys wanted us to reprint wasteland, so here are some waste lands.
>you can tap them to make anus mana.
>>54526763
I really liked the Innistrad lands, and I think they capture that dark, moody feel. I even like Urza swamps for the same effect.
Something about the Time Spiral lands just doesn't click.[/opinion]

That doesn't sound like an SJW man, that sounds like a normal person with modern sensibilities towards human decency.

my favorite land art of all time is this forest by alan pollack
>>54527677
If you think my tasteless nude r34 land alters are tacky then you are the enemy.
>>54512750
I wanted to get foil of these but they're nowhere. Made me sad.
>>54510377
Do the real cards have the pussies on the pussies, or is just for etsy?
>>54528238
Completely uncensored. Even on Etsy you can view the full art.
>>54528323
Show me the link, i don't find em
>>54528346
the artist is sakimichan i'm 99% sure. maybe search for her? no idea how etsy works though, just recognize the work.
