One of our regulars at the artwork forums sugested a great idea in the Past Themes and Future Suggestions thread and, since we're a pretty listening crew, we decided to turn his proposal into a real contest! Please, feel free to go and suggest themes for the monthly contests in the aforementioned thread. We love to have as much participation from the community as possible. (Thanks, Trancebam!)
Are you asking yourself wich task we have for you this month? Check this out:
Your challenge:
Choose any one card that have not been printed in any Ravnica block before and make a brand new artwork for it. Of course you can't choose any card, but one that could fit any of the Ravnica Guilds's ideology and flavor. Also, the piece you create must display a distinctive element from the guild you'll be orienting the artwork to, such as a guild symbol, or a well known character from the guild. For example, You may create a new artwork for Unstable Mutation, depicting a simic mage (provided with the proper guild badge) executing an experiment; or make a new artwork for Centaur Glade, depicting Emmara recruitting a centaur faction. Possibilities are vast. Imagination is your best ally.
- Colors: Please, respect the colors of the guild you chose. If you chose to create a boros artwork piece, please don't make it for a card such as Necropotence. You know what I mean.
- Card choice: If you feel dubious about your card choice being or being not proper for your guild, please contact me or adunakhor for some guidance. We are here to help you and make your contest experience as fruitful as possible.
- Make sure to leave clear wich guild have you chocen while sending your entry.
Your reward
The contest winner determined by poll will be rewarded with a digital trophy above his avatar and announced on mtgsalvation home.
More information, rules and restrictions - please read carefully!

How Could You Be So Heartless? (Heartless Hidetsugu)
Hello. Would it be possible to give one art as submission, and other arts just for bonus, that wouldn't count in pools, please ?
Well, in case you have a second artwork piece you would like to share with the community, I would suggest you to share it somewere else, such as in a new thread made for that purpouse, or even here. We would not display pieces that aren't entries in a poll OP unless these are part of a mural/series to were the official entry belongs. Even so, we would try to avoid that if possible (having two pieces in the poll would give you more chances of catching the viewer's eyes, wich could probably lead into that person to vote for you for over any other entrant that would have sent just one piece.) You may even show it in the poll thread as a separate post. It's up to you.
I hope you understand the "why" of the "no".
