Mr. Toser, sir. (tug of the forelock with a bow to avoid the reverence of your gaze)
What did I do wrong to be edited? I humbly accept that it's all my fault and will be ready for a good thrashing in a public square of your choosing.

My packs for this set arrived this morning and I have to say I am very, very pleased with the collection of sketches I pulled. I think I can honestly say that I don't think there is bad one amongst them but more than a few really good one Smile So many thanks to Elaine and Tony Perna for pulling the whole thing together and to the artists involved for producing such outstanding work. Here are my pulls in the order I found them:

Chris Meeks, Jason Sobol, Sanna 'U'
Sam Agro, Rhiannon Owens, Hanie Mohd


Anthony Tan, Christopher Uminga, Achilleas Kokkinakis
Mel Uran, Francois Chartier, Eric McConnell


Tony Perna, Amy Pronovost, Lynne Anderson
John Monserrat, Ed Cherniga, Stefanie Battalene


Jason A Saldajero, Richard Cox, Elaine Perna
Juri H Chinchilla, Ingrid Hardy, Ted Dastick Jr

The artist for the middle card of your unknowns is Irma 'Aimo' Ahmed. The first artist could be Jason Saldajeno but a clearer shot of the signature would help. No idea about the card on the right.

I also think it's Saldajeno and can't see the right.

Received my set yesterday, #197/203. As always, phenomenal base-set artwork! And the sticker card is very cool. Smile

No redemption cards in this package but I won't complain one bit as I pulled this sketch from my box:

ISIS by Edward Cherniga. Big Grin

Beauty! Clap

And speaking of beautiful things, I got the Windigo frosted card in this box. For anyone who got multiple sets and might have a spare set of frosted cards for trade, please drop me a line (or see my post in the Trades section.)

Congratulations, Tony and Elaine, for another gorgeous set! Metal

I am very impressed with Perna Studios, the quality of this set is 2nd to none. Besides the 12 sketches I also got the Meghan Hetrick lenticular card.
The scans dont do these cards justice, the colors are so vibrant. I cant say enough about the Alcorn-Hender Zeus sketch, its a masterpiece.

Munin by Jason Sobol, Ammit by Kate Bradley, ? by Elaine Perna
? by Samanth Johnson, Hermes by Mathew Fletcher, Thor by Sam Argo




Chimera VS. Bellerophon by Babisu Kourtis, Medusa by Danielle Graunsaull, Drayad by Sanna U
Cupid/Pysche by Lynn Anderson, Poseidon by Stacey Kardash, Zeus by Soni Alcorn-Hender

My cards have arrived in Australia (shortly after I left unfortunately, so at this stage I only have the scan done my non-card partner who thinks we are all crazy). It's an amazing collection - including my first every Tony Perna pull, which is wacky when you consider how much comic stuff I break.

Samantha Johnson - Valkyrie
Tony Perna - Iya (a storm entity) - since my collection is supposed to be focussed on weather and skies, this will fit very nicely as well and Tony's amazing line-work really adds to the sense of chaos
Edward Cherniga - Hathor - I was not intending to collect Hathor, but this is too beautiful to let go and she was a sky goddess (which is emphasised in this sketch)
Ted Dastick Jr - Nidhogg
Mel Uran-Takasugi - Harpies
Lynne Anderson - Epona
Ingrid Hardy, Wadjet
Eric McConnell, Quetzalcoatl
Chris Meeks, Zeus
Achilleas Kokkinakis, Hera
Nestor Celario, Loki
Rhiannon Owena, Water Nymph

Updated for identifications Smile




I am stunned by the quality and diversity of this break. I can't wait for the cards to get here so I can drool over them (properly protected of course). Absolutely awesome work by all the artists. And thanks to Tony and Elaine for pulling it all together.

I'm pretty sure your mystery artist on the bottom row is Nestor Celario. It is very similar in style to another couple of sketches I have seen by that artist in this set. Also, like the others, it's part of a multi-panel scene. Good luck on finding the other pieces.

Well done on finding the Cherniga Hathor. I would have loved to have found that sketch instead of the Seth I did come across. Much more in keeping with my collection and the one of his that I would most liked to have found. I don't suppose you'd consider trading ?

You got another great selection of sketches which again demonstrate just how amazing this release from Elaine and Tony has been. Have we really got to wait until October for their next set ? Smile

WOW Tangent, what a great collection of sketches you pulled! Eek

Great job finding the Cherniga - that's three found so far on this board. Smile
I'm pretty sure your Zeus is by the Glebe boys. And you got Ted's Nidhogg! That was one of my favorites!

And Kevin, your Cherniga is incredible. Even if you aren't collecting that character. Wink
