Pretty sure that the humans in Grixis were intended to be vaguely Central Asian. Both of Sarkhan's arts depict him as Asian (especially Sarkhan the Mad).
that being,
Sarkhan isnt from Alara though, he planeswalked there and revered Jund.
I love chandra's pose in this art.
Heck, I love just about every PW in this art. They all have great definition and the artist did a fantastic job characterising them through the art. DO WANT
seriously why is BOTH tezz's arms BOTH etherium, as well as his chest, and WHY is he so old?
garruk has little green flaoting specs all around him?
also sorin just ate someone right before the picture. the reason why i know that is he literally has blood on theright side of his face trailing down. also he looks like hes about to whip his sword out and shank someone.
finally there is something in between elspeth and nissa, and if its a staff then why does it look like there is a staff right behind elspeth then?
Let's see if I can do this properly... y-you know... without any infractions and such...
Here is the image directly from the artist's DA page-
( Left to right. ) Group one:
Tezzeret, Sarkhan Vol, Karn, Elssy, Nissa.
Group three:
Kiora Atua, Koth, Liliana Vess, Ajani Goldmane.
Notes:
• Thing behind Elssy; Sarkhan's staff.
• Garruk's glitter; probably green mana.
• Tezz has become aged by Bolas' procedures, and only one arm is eth.

Nissa finally looks like the arrogant, crazy chick that she is...
And Gideon appears to be wearing jeans under the leg armor.
On Sorin: we know he is vampire, no dripping blood to prove it. As a sophisticated ancient Vampire, I am sure he carries a handkerchief in the pocket? Did mama vampire taught him no manner?

"On top of that, if you ever manage to T2 Lead the Stampede, fill your hand, and pitch two Vengevines on your cleanup phase, the sky rains kittens wearing tophats, each carrying a sock full of quarters. True story."
i thought up a really cool art piece such as this for all 2 powered creatures in magic
Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

I'll agree to this. One of the biggest reasons I like MTG is because of the crazy awesome art.
This... this... is 3D attempted garbage.
Edit: Also, does Ajani look pretty werewolf-esque to anyone besides me?
I think you should voice your opinions to the artist. They might appreciate the constructive criticism.
Edit:
Dude, this is no frickin' Last Supper painting. You're waay over-analysing it. Seriously, it's just a promotional poster to advertise a product from a commercial company*.
Really guys, stop watching The Da Vinci Code.

I'm sure the artist would appreciate hearing that as well.

I would have already done it if wizards wouldn't sue me over it :\
Why is nobody telling me where are the tattoos of Liliana? She looks so young too.
Her tattoos glow when she's fired up for spell-castin', they don't appear when she's at rest. The age and ethnicity of planeswalkers are up to the artist to a certain degree.
Gideon gathered some allies, and they all met up at Equilor for a group shot.
Anyway, I think it's more likely that Kiora is Blue/Green now, what with the whole color grouping thing going on. Did anyone notice her outfit? It's made pretty much entirely of aquatic stuff, like clam shells, crab carapaces, and seaweed or something. That's one of the things I always liked about Magic's merfolk, their outfits were pretty creative.
And yeah, we need more non-human walkers. I mean, we do have a Merfolk (well, soon), a Cat, a Dragon, a Golem, an Elf, and a Vampire (well, he barely counts to me). But there are 10 humans, counting Venser...:crying::argh:
well the blur of racial identities is no longer. Sarkhan is asian. Tezz is Jamaican. Lilliana is southern america hispanic and Koth is Definitely a black guy. Elspeth is looking good though. and do i sea that Merfolk PW hiding over there?
^^^
why magic players are stereo typed....
Ah. I never noticed that he showed so much skin. I was mostly confused by the left eye/winking.

Absolutely love the look of Gideon, Chandra, and the Merfolk in this.
Some of the others I'm not gaga over, but overall it's pretty amazing.

While the background might just be rocks and fog, doesn't it remind anyone of something else?
