Seen about half of them already, but their larger quality is certainly nice. The close-up of the bleeding woman is the one that most caught my eye, aside from the angel of course. She really reminds me of Elspeth. O.o

Second art looks like a PW to me, they did say there'd be more than one planeswalker in RoE (acording to seds). Maybe an ally PW? Or something else, kinda a wild guess. He just seems to have the same art-style of a PW and looks charismatic and whatnot.
EDIT: Is that Gideon? I'm not familiar with the book.

The rumors all but confirm him as Gideon, a white planeswalker from The Purifying Fire, he really likes order, justice, balance, blah, blah, blah. And he told Chandra about Zendikar and said he would follow her after he cleaned up what Chandra did at the end of the book, he seemed pretty angry by this turn of events so I don't know if he'll be out for revenge of another attempt at making friends with Chandra.

I haven't changed by signature since Mirrodin Besieged spoilers started!

Sweetness, I've been looking forward to the new white walker. Ajani just ain't doing it for me anymore and never had the money for Elspeth.
BTW, is it just me or is there something wrong with that angel art?
A: her wings seem off-center, like she was pasted on top of them.
B: her hair seems like it's too far off to one side, and her left calf was pained for @*($&@.
As beautiful as it was at first glance, it now looks real bad.

So what colours would Gideon be? I've never read any othe the books, is why good or bad?
Mono-white. Part of an interplanar organization that works to spread law and order across the multiverse. Has some history with Chandra. Very idealistic, but decent at heart.
Yeah, looks like Gideon has beat up the Eldrazi. So Chandra, Jace, Sorin, Nissa, Sarkhan and this Gideon guy are all on Zendikar by the end of the block, unless one of them dies or something.
I find image #4 to be stunning. I wonder if it will be used at all, or if it is just concept art. Although she reminds me of Elspeth, their armors have distinct differences.
Also, the white lines in the background of Sarkhan's picture is an outline of a dragon. I did not notice that at first.
Notes on what we already know:
1 is obviously Sarkhan. 2 from what we know is Gideon. 6 and 14 are obviously Eldrazi; 5 and 11 are more ambiguous, though the Eldrazi does appear to be the focus of the piece in 11. I'd guess probably yes on 11, no on 5? 7 appears to also show Gideon; is that a slain Eldrazi at his feet? 8 obviously shows Jace; he looks to be unsummoning that Eldrazi, though that's probably not the only possible interpretation. 10 we know is Drana, 12 we know is Kozilek. 13 is maybe something like Balance? Perhaps this is what MaRo was hinting at on Twitter? Well, that's speculation; in truth, however suggestive the scales may be, the card looks more like a creature (though we can't rule out a creature with a Balance effect). 15 we know is a Mountain. 16 and 17 are box art and hence are probably not cards at all. 4 is possibly an artifact?
Holy ☺☺☺☺, forget power creep. Art creep is where it's at.
I have to remember all of these cards especially Drana, the Angel with scales and the bleeding women over the necklace since I want at least one of them in regular and one in foil.
Just, I can't wait. I don't care how crappy some of these cards will turn out to be I just love the art.

Another pic of Gideon on #7, eh?

I have exactly the same impression. It's like one of the prettiest Magic cuties that I have seen so far. Must get foils!!!
Also, the white lines in the background of Sarkhan's picture is an outline of a dragon. I did not notice that at first.
My current trade thread.
It's nice to have wallpaper sized versions of these artworks and the Pic of the Bleeding Elspeth (It looks like her, let's face it)
I love these, and it's nice to have the master of Planeswalker Art do the next white one!
