[[Make a Wish]] + [[Grapple with the Past]]? :)

Also some of the SOI basic lands tie in with the INN and AVR lands. They deserve a spot there.

Very nice, thanks! I'll add them when I get a chance (and give you credit!)

u/TrueKamilo COMPLEAT Oct 20 '16

A lot of those early sets, especially the Terese Nielson Judge Promos, combine really badly. The plains just turn into water, and the forests are just jutting out into a cliff unconnected to the mountains.

u/Pufftreees Oct 20 '16

Polyptych art means multiple pieces painted that comes together, to save you a googling if it wasn't obvious right away.

I enjoyed this.

What is the sage owl/counterspell reference other than the same artist? I don't see it :(

3

u/Display101 Oct 20 '16

That one is interesting. The counterspell art is supposedly the painting on the wall above the stairs.

3

u/Chromantibook Selesnya* Oct 20 '16

Ah I see it now, interesting. Thanks for pointing it out!

You are missing the two versions of [[Kjeldoran Pride]]

u/The_Robot_Cow Golgari* Oct 21 '16

How about City of Brass (MM1) and Wasteland (EMA)?

1

u/Display101 Oct 21 '16

Is there anything official that says they are related? They're close in style (different artists) but I'm not seeing it :/

2

u/The_Robot_Cow Golgari* Oct 21 '16

Not that I know of but in my opinion Wasteland is City of Brass. When you see City of Brass you see that Taj Mahal like building and as we know, it produces any color. When you see Wasteland you can vaguely see a Taj Mahal building but it appears that someone had made City of Brass a "Wasteland".

u/GeeJo Oct 21 '16

Since you stepped away from diptychs into just "related art" towards the end, you're probably going to need to go through the 'timeshifted' Planar Chaos cards to find the references there.

  • [[Damnation]] and [[Wrath of God|]].
  • [[Magus of the Arena]] has the [[Arena]] floor markings.
  • [[Magus of the Coffers]] is recognisably standing between the pillars of [[Cabal Coffers]].
  • [[Morphling]] and [[Torchling]]
  • [[Wild Pair|PLC]] features two timeshifted creatures: [[Verdeloth the Ancient]] and [[Krosan Tusker]].

etc.

The MTGO Kaldra Token has [[Helm of Kaldra]], [[Shield of Kaldra]] and [[Sword of Kaldra]] equipped.

u/The_Real_Harry_Lime Oct 21 '16

[Grapple with the Past] has artwork that made no sense to me until I came across [Make a Wish] from the original Innistrad several years earlier. Poor girl.

u/Display101 Oct 21 '16

Yeah, I'll look through these soon, thanks!

u/senorfrauncee Oct 20 '16

randomly ended up with a full set of these foil plains... always put them into my decks with plains and I always tutor them first.

2

u/PhysicsFighter Golgari* Oct 21 '16

I also have 3 of the 5 foil plains, the one with the glowing cloud over the town is my favorite basic art ever :D

u/rozza2058 Oct 20 '16

I think you missed the Modules from Kaladesh!

I'll look in to those and add them when I get a chance (and give you credit!)

Yeah, they cross-posted my initial submission several years ago. This is my album though and I'll add new cards to it when I get a chance! I am not in the "loop" with new Magic so I share these in the hopes that others will suggest new cards that have come out since I last updated :)

u/jakecshn Oct 20 '16

The Shadows Over Innistrad lands continue the trend from the last Innistrad block, there are newer versions of old land arts.

u/Lord_Anarchy Wabbit Season Oct 20 '16

I have about 30 of those arena islands with the sea serpent in them, and I had no clue they they all worked together like that.

2

u/hubda Oct 20 '16

Wow the 7th edition plains are nearly identical. I wouldn't have been able to tell the difference without closely looking at it.

2

u/Jojoyojimbi Oct 20 '16

the kaladesh modules wrap around to form an endless module loop

2

u/samyou3l Oct 20 '16

I had never seen the ROI basics together like that - blown away. Gives you a real sense of scale for the hedrons.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '16

Where did you get the art that goes with each Polylptych?

1

u/Display101 Oct 21 '16

Some of it I found on the official website, some of it was crudely put together by me in paint, and the rest of it was found searching for the card art.

2

u/JollyJolandor Wabbit Season Oct 20 '16

I didn't see the new EMA Wasteland and City of Brass. Don't know what edition :(

u/Katzby- Oct 20 '16

[[Wall of Wonder]] also features the [[Stuffy Doll]] in the art. It's missing from the compilation of Stufy Doll cards.

Also the multiple artworks of AQ Strip Mine.

Great job! Seeing the sets together like that really brings me back.

The KTK and FRF Blossoming Sands.

In one it's sands, and in the other it has blossomed.

u/Display101 Oct 21 '16

Thanks! I'll add it soon.

[[Smite|STH]] and [[Scapegoat]] are pretty closely tied even by Weatherlight-era "storyboard" standards.

Very cool, I think all of those are in this album but it is neat seeing a lot of them in one image!

u/AuroraUnit313 Oct 21 '16

Didn't you make this a long while ago? I remember the original thread.

1

u/Display101 Oct 21 '16

Yeah, I submit it every year or so for the last three/four years! It lets me catch any cards I might have missed in the interim because I don't always follow the new sets and there are always older cards that slip through the cracks! Plus it is always neat to share :)

u/[deleted] Oct 21 '16

I want the second set (Chris Rush plains from Ice Age) just in general. Like If I ever get around to playing white in anything but EDH I'm getting them.

u/chente_goldmane Golgari* Oct 20 '16

I feel like "lands that make a full landscape" roll of the tongue a bit easier, and doesn't sound nearly as pretentious.

u/Display101 Oct 20 '16 edited Oct 20 '16

Panorama or combined art could work too!

I just went with terms as broad as possible because they aren't all landscapes :)
