I really like the artwork for Gargoyle Castle. I was a little worried because a) Gargoyle Castle is my favorite card in M10, and b) I looked through Gatherer and was unimpressed by Paul Bonner's other artwork, but the Castle turned out really great. I didn't like the art for Guardian Seraph (also by Bonner), because you have to look closely to see where the wings end and the background begins, but Gargoyle Castle turned out simple, detailed, and elegant, a piece I might have expected from Greg Staples or Rob Alexander, two of my favorite artists. I figured there would be a token card for it, but it's also nice to have confirmation of that too.
Seems to be a trend towards a little too much detail in card art that honestly, is really too small scale for it.
I like all three, but Rahn's and Bonner's suffer from being shrunk down to size. They lose all the clever details and it's hard to tell what's going on. The side turrets fade into the dark main spire, the detail on the gargoyle heads and wings is lost, the terrain CGI is almost wasted on such a small card - indeed I didn't know it was there until I saw the full size pic.
Grave is pretty good, but it's by no means my favorite art.
I'm just happy the Gargoyle flies. There's been some dispute about that. With conformation it flies, I can definitely say I'm picking up a couple play sets.

I don't have any hard numbers on this, but I'm targeted more often than a black guy driving a beat-up sedan with a broken tail-light and no license plate, and Cy's well aware of that.

Obviously?
And Sleep is officially a let down. I really wanted that to be an Instant so bad, but I guess it'll have to work as a Sorcery.
I just pre-ordered 8 Gargoyle Castles and the art makes me happy enough that if they end up as junk rares, at least I'll have cool looking cards.

...It's funny cause it's true. BTW, anyone Noticed the Ball Lightning Pic on Starcitygames?
What about the picture at SCG? It's been there for a while and I haven't noticed anything weird about it.

I like all 3 of these arts though. Good stuff.
It may not be a reference per se, but it's quite similar to one of the druids (Malfurion I think?) being inside the Emerald Dream.
