This is the current art shown on Magic Online's splash screen. Odds are, since we know Glorious Anthem is it's old artwork, (see here) we can assume this is the artwork for Serra Angel.

Ignorance may be bliss, but the ignorant are still stupid.
Who's the artist? I wouldn't mind buying a print of that one.

Forgive me father, I did an original sin, I poked a badger with a spoon.
Yes, I like my coffee, hot and strong... Like I like my women: Hot and strong, with a spoon in them.
I think we already knew this (I know I did) but thanks any way.
Yeah, i especulated that for myself. Hopefully i will own a foil version of this one.
I still hope for any reprint of a tutor, or even brainstorm due to it's rotation out of extended.:rolleyes2: Thanks for sharing your info you guys, it's really nice to see people interested in 9th as much as i am.
urzassedatives: are you telling me to 'just stop'. just stop what?. huh?. Sorry for both what I didn't/haven't stop[ped], whatever that may be. But yeah, good pics, both. I think I prefer the 'muscled' one though.
Sorry, I thought you were being rediculous.
As for the newer versions of Serra, with the advent of the storyline and such, Serra no longer is short for Serrated, so the picture doesn't have to show a 'serrated' angel.
Sorry for my ignorance of the origin of the term Serra though.
The new pic is nice.

that picture is exactly 666 pixels wide is that the highest rez version available, does anyone have a higher quality one?
I looked around in the Magic Online files, and I updated the first post's image with the one straight from the .tga file. (yes, it is 666 px for the actual image at best-quality)
It's some nice artwork, But I hope not for Serra Angel.
I like the orginal better or that one that was posted by Shadow Lord which was going to be used by Unglued 2

Wow. I really, (really, really) like this art. The oldest one, while nice, has always gotten on my nerves, and the new one always(to me, anyway) looks like she's posing. In addition I figure that an a warrior angel should have darker art a la Avenging Angel. Besides the fact that this art is well done, I really like the colors, and really hope it's Serra's art in 9th. It has a sort of dark beauty.

just think of it as Ankh (you know... an Ankh) More Pork, Ian. That's how I remember it :tongue2: (without the e, anyway)
That's how to remember my name. Or, you could just read the Discworld Novels by Terry Pratchett. I recommend the second method.:)

At least it is a step forward from the 7th, 8th Serra, it might turn out nice on the card itself.
Nice artwork, although i tend to prefer my angels a bit less spikey and a lot more curvy(thats just my preference though).
The other artwork was indeed from the unglued 2 stuff that was never used, it was going to be for a card name Que Serra, Serra and have its ability based on the fact that back in those days a Serra Angel could almost guarentee you victory.
to me the style doesn't look new but it's not Terese Nielsen... look at eternal witness for example... it looks more like Carl Critchlow (form of the dragon, balthor the defiled, an ape 4 9th,...)

I keep thinking that its a dude, but then I see the breastplates and I suddenly go
The art is alright(better than the 7th,8th ver. IMO) but I'd rather prefer:
1. The Original Art (the one from Alpha-4th)
2. Serra Art from Inquest(awesome pic, I'll see if I can find it)
3. Rebacca Guay's Serra Art(why did it have to be for oversize cards only.....why?)
Edit: The Inquest pic: hubba hubba *drools*.....if they ever used that pic......:smileup:
clergy en-vec read the flavor text prior to looking at the picture...much worse then boros guildmage

Points to:
So.. yeah. Serra Angel all the way.. The pose looks sort of like it as well.
I guess there was something to Serrated eh? Also Serra was the planeswalker who created the aptly named "Serra's Realm".
Either way, the art is nice, although I do like posted by shadowlord, but I believe that was intended for unglued 2, then was scrapped.
Sorry, I thought you were being rediculous.

The new pic is nice.

Almost.
So do we know the artist yet?
Also, I don't get what you mean when you say e know Anthm is the old art. How do we know that?
I have no extendo-sig. Sorry, I'm just not vain enough to think someone will click on it.
The Glorius Anthem art from 8th is on the WW precon in 9th. Therefore, Glorius Anthem uses the same art and so this art cannot be for the Anthem.

After looking at it for a very long time, I would have to go for Greg Staples
