Almost didn't realize this is a 3D render

The pristine alpha Tutor was a bit of a giveaway. That card would have seen serious use back in the day!

Also, no "Deckmaster" on the back of the card deck

Holy macaroni I didn't see that missing from my texture.... Good catch

Very true. I can scuff them up, but I want to look at the ideal not the reality.

I assumed it was just a stack of fresh proxies

Whoa. What was the tell tale? I still can’t find one and I’ve done a decent number of renderings before

Nhojj_Whyte t1_j5n02cu wrote

I might be biased now that I know that it's a render, but something about the mug and it's contents... idk, just doesn't strike me as a liquid, too pristine maybe. Just a mirrored surface trying to look like black coffee or something.

yParticle t1_j5n1hg6 wrote

A couple of bubbles along the edge, perhaps?

3

Nhojj_Whyte t1_j5n2b0q wrote

Yeah, something. I don't do much pouring of coffee into ceramic mugs, and never this black, but I'd think you could see some small bubbles, foam at the edge, and it's not that HD but maybe even condensation or steam around it. It's just too perfect imo

jibjabmikey t1_j5nd15d wrote

I see what you mean. Well OP, you did good nonetheless. Cinema 4D? 3D Studio Max?

SpikedSynapse OP t1_j5o9f5x wrote

I used blender for this one I have recently moved away from C4D cause they've hamstrung the modding/plug-in community. Still learning Cycles

jibjabmikey t1_j6f6pse wrote

Nice. Yeah Blender has been making huge strides.

Tifereth4 t1_j5phklk wrote

Black coffee usually has a spots of oil from the brew process on the surface. Could be one way of adding that extra "touch." Otherwise overall fantastic render!! I do renders for landscapes and love to see them in other fields...especially ones I've gone into the deep end and spent billions of dollars in. I am both a MTG player of 20 years and mech keyboard hobbyist/enthusiast. RIP wallet.

I always have trouble identifying one thing in photos like this. I usually get the vibe that it’s just “off” like an uncanny valley type thing. Others have mentioned the condition of the face-up card, but I personally think that the lighting/glare on the upper left corner of the keeb strikes me as artificial when I look closely

Gleem_ t1_j5ocn9y wrote

I've been playing mtg for around 20 years and you don't often see a stack of absolutely perfect condition cards like that. Even if you literally just opened them from a pack there's going to be a little bit of wear on them.

If an Elder scrolls set ever comes out, I'm in.

SpikedSynapse OP t1_j5kev24 wrote

I think clackeys has done some work with them. I am pretty sure it was an artisan. Ask in their discord and they might have info.

Memeboius t1_j5mfmp7 wrote

Thanks for the info! I didn't think it would be a thing tbh.

SpikedSynapse OP t1_j5k2ae7 wrote

With Neon Dynasty delivering we wanted everyone to get a second chance at getting in on Classic Magic. The new IFK quality is excellent.

Go to clackeys.com to join in!

The board is the Sela70 which should be in GB soon.

MooseCadets t1_j5k9y7w wrote

These are awesome! Would this mean there is a chance for non-classic (I guess modern?) Magic set?

I have been chatting with the mother of machines... we will see what she approves ;)

I sold playsets of each dual land at around $10 each. 😭

mrouija213 t1_j5mdri6 wrote

I felt bad as a kid buying revised dual lands for $15/ea. Fast forward to now and I feel like high school me was a much better investor than adult me...

vim_for_life t1_j5lz2cv wrote

I think I have 1-2 if they're from 4th edition? Been a LONG time since I've pulled those cards out..

yParticle t1_j5m4zb6 wrote

I may have been the dude who bought them from you at a tourney. They got pretty worn before getting resold.

Ahh it is what it is, I avoid looking up what my old collection was worth to avoid that pain. :D

If it makes you feel better many many years ago I sold my (unpowered) Oath deck for 600.

Those symboles are trademarks is this officially licenced by Hasbro/WotC?

Is there an Option to ship to Germany? Perhaps I am just not seeing it?

SpikedSynapse OP t1_j5kw0xr wrote

Im afraid not, our license limits us to North America.

I hear sneaker people use forwarding services to get geo locked sneakers.

Thanks. I will use our US Office. Someone of my company has to bring it over than.

Any updates on the Terror Below and Art Nouveau sets? Art Nouveau was ETD Q2 2022 lol

2

SpikedSynapse OP t1_j5midru wrote

Yeah Terror Below is fully color matched and awaiting production. Art Nouveau has been produced and should be shipping out soon. COVID lockdowns in China really hurt MWs production.

ChakaZG t1_j5mwd5o wrote

That Magic font instantly reminds me of Morrowind, and seeing it on a keyboard makes me unreasonably moist.

2

Cloakedbug t1_j5nfpdn wrote

God the font here is so damn ugly. It just does not translate well at all from the card style. Just one of the worst aesthetic sets I’ve seen on here, and a blatant cash grab partnering with a terrible company (WotC) as well.

Hope to see a phyrexian set someday, I would be on that so fast you’d blink and miss it.

Stahp! You're making me want this set.
Also, You need a sweaty glass leaving condensation rings on the mat

apotrope t1_j5l1gvg wrote

If it's any consolation I do this for any brand that's been tainted by the poor behavior of it's owner. Harry Potter for example. Your board looks nice, but I firmly believe that to truly fix culture problems that the answer is to erase things from the culture. Ideally, Harry Potter, MtG, and D&D would all be culturally isolated to the point where no one remembers them in a few generations. The same goes for all modern Republican ideas.

Nevermind that I am a fan of the game and have been working on this since well before the 25th Anniversary BS and the OGL BS.
