Title: Suggestions on drawing/painting
Post by: Deebiia on November 06, 2013, 06:22:22 PM
I am going to be working on a huge project over the next month, if not longer, of a sketch-- which is gonna turn into a large painting (dimensions are 2.1m(7 feet) long x 0.6-0.8m(3-ish feet) tall)-- of two planeswalkers in the background with associated creatures related to that planeswalker fighting against the other planeswalkers creatures. I would REALLY like to have Garruk as one of the planeswalkers, but I'm not sure who else to do. If anyone has any suggestions of what/who to draw and explain the look of it a bit that would be awesome. It doesn't NEED to be Garruk, he is just my favorite.. Well him and Nissa.

I'd say Liliana bc they are enemies flavor wise (I think)

I could do Liliana. What creatures are predominantly in black/decks that use her?

Liliana is specters, spirits, skeletons and zombies.

{Garruk Wildspeaker} vs {Liliana Vess} is good and is one of the more common match ups, for sure. But if you're putting a rad amount of effort into a massive painting, go with something visually spectacular colour wise! Garruk and Lili would most likely be a palette of greens, browns, blacks and purples on the whole if sticking to flavour aesthetic. Where as if you went with someone like {Koth of the Hammer}, you could have huge splashes of vibrant eye catching colour and big huge rock elementals, lizards/dragons and red beasts vs Garruk's balloths, hydras, and green beasts.

But definitely stick with Garruk. That dude is a boss.

I would say garruk vs jace.  Not because jace is overhyped, but because you could do some really amazing looking things with jace's mind ability.

I agree ^^

That's a good idea. With jace focus on him using like mind phantoms and stuff. You could even have one of garruks monsters with pure blue eyes to show that it's being mind controlled

Jace versus Chandra would be eye catching and honestly visually stunning. All the colours, and all the things you could do...

But he says garruk has to be one of them.

Maby a three-some?... ;)
Ewwwww lol :P
If so Jace vs. Garruk would contrast colours really nicely. (Dark green, brown, etc versus bright blue)

Agreed. If Garruck is one Liliana has to be the other. Beasts Vs. Undead

Garruk doesn't NEED to be one. He is just my favorite planeswalker. I've never used/seen Karn really I do know Bolas and that would look pretty sweet.

Edit: Found this pic of Karn while doin' a bit of research on who I should draw. http://www.crowsnbones.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Art-By-Jason-Chan-search-for-karn.jpg He looks freakin awesome!

Edit2: Just read up on Karn... Wow..

Go for it. I'm surprised no one moved it there before now.
