We're envisioning a new era of population in the upcoming months... So much iterations of the same creature tokens will happen... So, let's put an unique token on the table!
Your challenge
Take a creature token or a non-token card and alter it to be a creature token with a custom artwork. (NOTE: The custom artwork could be partial. So it will not be necessary to change the whole original artwork.) It must be a creature token for a real token-maker card (for example, you may alter an original Llanowar Elves card to be a Llanowar Elves token for Llanowar Mentor, a new artwork for a Drake token from M13 (Talrand's), or turn that useless common depicting a zombie into a Zombie Token for Vile Rebirth. You may even blank a card entirely and make a creature token with all brand new (frame, artwork, etc)!
Your reward
The contest winner determined by poll will be rewarded with a digital trophy above his avatar and announced on mtgsalvation home.
More information, rules and restrictions - please read carefully!
General rules
The work you submit must be something you created for this contest and nothing you pulled from your portfolio.
If you take someone else's artwork as reference, please provide the source.
Keep in mind your entry should be work safe, i.e. no naked boobies or other stuff of that kind
Silent submission: Do not post your work here. Instead send it by pm to both adunakhor and Blackbull. All entries will be revealed when the polls are up.
Deadline for this contest is 31 October
Contest specific rules
When submitting your work, please leave clear for wich card the token you made is.
The card you choose should make sense flavour-wise, e.g. painting an Ooze and defining it as a Human Soldier token wouldn't make it.
Addendum
When submitting your entry, please make sure your pic/scan has a width of 300 pixel. If you can`t do it, no problem, but it would help a lot to make entries more comparable.
This may be the wrong place to ask this, but would an 'alteration' like the one below be allowed for this contest?
This card image is derived from the TV series Inuyasha.
It is not really altered, since no part of the original is visible. The "Beast" and "3/3" are just cut and pasted from the actual card, so no cleaver alterations exist there either.
Please let me know, as I have an overabundance of hand drawn tokens that I use for my decks.

Shots from entries shouldn't be touched, except may be for a bright or contrast adjustment (wich actually would be preferable to avoid in order to respect fidelity.) Since the way the token looks in real isn't that one, that entry wouldn't be allowed. If you painted it over a real card, that's fine, but please avoid editing the image by adding digital elements.
EDIT: Actually, while removing these additions you made, what's left isn't a token of anything, but a manga drawing over a totally blanqued card, with zero mtg references. May be if you modify the entry in order to make it recognizable as a creature token... The way it actually is, it wouldn't be acceptable neither.
