Hello card slingers!
While we’re working hard here on the 14th full set for Legends of Norrath (currently set for release on April 17, 2012), I thought I would share some of the behind the scenes fun of watching really awesome card art come in from our talented artists around the world.

Taken By The Anarchs – Ryan Barger
This could also be called “Balebri’s Really Bad Day”. This is a flashback piece, and an important part of the overall storyline in Fall of the Estarim, where she is carted off to an unknown fate by the Anarch dragons. How this incident affects her is the central theme to this set. In the piece itself, we wanted to reflect how massive a dragon is and how helpless Balebri is at this point.

Soolinur the Assassin by Joe Wilson
Dragons have been a big theme in the several-set Anarch storyline. Soolinur is the first adversary your party encounters at Veeshan’s Peak. The plaintive cries of Balebri can be heard throughout the caverns, and this is what leads Our Heroes to battle this formidable dragon opponent.

Engraved Great Helm by Erich Schreiner
A great game is marked by great stuff. The Engraved Great Helm is an awesome relic owned by the wealthy, Estarim family. Erich added wonderful detail making this helm beautiful and dangerous, and obviously of immense value. And who doesn’t love really spiky hats?

Buccaneer of Agony – Kerem Beyit
Harrrr! Nuff said!
Ok, Kerem is one of our favorite artists and adds such a clean quality to his characters. There’s a strong, ferocious quality to this warrior of the seas.

Burnish by Conceptopolis
This is such a beautiful piece we wanted to make sure you could see it at a larger size to appreciate the fine detail. This is a very soft moment of a warrior preparing for a battle. The shield is pristinely detailed and the warrior takes great pride in its upkeep.

Master of Alteration by Ben Wooten
This is one of our favorite pieces of the set. In the art notes, all we asked Ben to do was show a wizard turning a rabbit into a dragon. What we got back had us laughing for 20 minutes. Not only do we see a marvelous character in the wizard, but the fact that he left the buck teeth and whiskers on the dragon just makes this a wonderful piece. Maybe our wizard friend isn’t as adept as he believes.
