Title: Ideas for a magic painting?
Post by: Akroma on February 13, 2014, 03:54:50 PM
I want to do a magic theme painting to my room.
I need some ideas for a 16x20 canvas size, I'm using acrylic paints.

Let's here some!

Hmmm that would take some time, and a lot more paint lol I may consider it if no one comes up with something better (I'm not the greatest painter but I get by haha).

Omg! I would need a bigger canvas for art such as that! It would need totals up more than 16x20 of my wall! Lol that's a great one though maybe I could sketch it on this blank playing mat.

Urza's and Mishra's final battle.

Of course Mishra with the Phyerixian augments.

Maybe not 1 but 5 paintings, all depicting the essence of each color of mana.

I like this idea! You could even go nuts and do a color for each wall - white on the ceiling.

Incorporate the door into the blue wall somehow :P

With your own selection of which creatures represent each color!!
For black you could have people losing their minds, rotting corpses, people siphoning power off of others, and people clawing their way for power!  You know, for kids!

If I was aloud to paint the walls I would! I'm renting so I can't, I mean I might if I paint over it when we move but I would cry! Lol maybe one day when I own a home I could turn our office into a magics room!

Not the battle, the OUTCOME.
Amd I think it would be most accurate if I was holding Urza's heart above my head, with him dead at my feet.

Sorry but an exploded wannabe planeswalker is not the victor.

You were destroyed by your brother.

Don't worry, though, Urza regretted it for a millennia.
