Elementals (Perna Studios, 2017)
Got my package today, 12 packs and four sets. Also got the plain metal variant of the TY promo which was limited to 30. I also got a redemption for the metal spot foil set 18/20 in one of the four sets and the Earth metal chase and Lenticular chase in the twelve packs. Most importantly got these 16 sketches ( first four are from the sets ) :



Can Baran and Oliver Castaneda.



Alexis Hill and Sanna Umemoto.




Ted Dastick Jnr and Achilleas Kokkinakis.




Puis Calzada and Juri H Chinchilla.




Peejay Catacutan and Danielle Gransaul.




Craig Yeung and Gabrielle Bruer.





Benjamin Glendenning and Alcione Silva.





Ingrid Hardy and Anastasia Catris.

What a wonderful set Smile . Everything from the base cards to the spot foils and all the cards above are just perfect Clap . Take a well earned rest Tony and Elaine. I look forward to your next set this time next year.

My 12 packs arrived yesterday but I've been too busy admiring them to post them here before now Smile

My extras were a Meghan Hetrick Fire Elemental Lenticular Card, an Earth Metal Chase Card by Priscilla Petraites and a gorgeous Metal Art Card by Hanie Mohd. So I was a very happy bunny Dance

My sketches in the order I found them:

Alfret Le, Priscilla Petraites, Danielle Gransaull


Luro Hersal, Mick and Matt Glebe, Liz Chesterman


Jofel Cube, Anthony Tan, Kokkinakis Achilleas


Loren Bobbitt, Matthew Sutton, Danielle Ellison


And last but not least the Metal Art from Hanie Mohd


Another beautiful collection of cards from the Pernas that I am really happy with Smile

Finally uploaded my images to my website so I can post the break Smile This is a beautiful set, as expected with Perna Studios. In my 12 packs, I got 3 base sets and spot foil sets. Extra hits are: TY metal promo, redemption for set of metal spot foils, FMC Fire Metal Chase, Lenticular. Very happy. And, here's the sketches:

Danielle Gransuall (Traded) / Israel Arteaga / Achilleas Kokkinakis
Jason Saldajeno / Walter Rice / Peejay Catacutan




Anthony Tan / Puis Calzada / Andre Toma
Mel Uran / Liz Chesterman / Alfret Le



Definitely keeping the Uran (water), Kokkinakis (air) and Saldajeno (air). Though I've noticed I have a few Saldajeno keepers in previous sets, so I might yet keep the Le (air) instead. Favourite earth is the Chesterman. I'm also a big fan of the Rice, particularly the way the water forms the dragon/bird head.

Got my 2 sets yesterday. Even though I'm not really collecting anymore I had to have these Big Grin

Two sketch cards:

The one of the right should have a green hue to it, but my phone didn't pick that up.

A Fire Metal Chase card. This is rather cool, IMO.


Two inserts, SF3 and SF4, as well as a promo card (TY).

Very happy with what was in mine. Might try and find the rest of the inserts, not sure yet.

That Juri is fantastic Eek ( but then they all are Smile ) . I would recommend visiting the Perna Facebook page, lots of people on there who will help you out with missing inserts for the cost of postage Thumb Up .

I joined that page earlier today Big Grin
Thanks to the page I also found out who the artists were, lol. It's even better that the artists are members of the page Smile

I've had an expression of interest already on the Petraites sketch. I don't know yet, though. The other one, by Juri, I'll be keeping. So detailed and colourful. Reminds me of another card I have. I don't remember where I got it but it's one of my favourites.
