Last day of RC Antwerp! Here’s a terrible picture of a fun commission I got this weekend. I still have (some) tokens left, if you are around come and say hi!

Since I ran out of 2/2 Birds I had to get creative.

RC Antwerp day 2 has already started! Forgot to post something yesterday, but I’d probably had been a picture of my token display, you get the idea. So today here’s a custom token I did yesterday 🦉

Egg has been a token that many Magic The Gathering players have asked me about over the last few events, so it's finally here! And while I did the regular egg token why not making the dinosaur egg as well? Almost the same illustration for almost the same token.

What perfect album came out when you were 16?
2004 brought some amazing albums that I defo didn't listened until later.
The same year were also released Converge's You Fail Me, MCR's Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, MF DOOM's MM.. FOOD and Ulver's Teachings in Silence.

Another old token to bring back with the new design after a while of being out of stock. After Antwerp I’ll take some time to expand the range of tokens after some crazy months :)

So this week I finally gathered the courage to fight Malenia in my first ER's playthrough (which is also my first FromSoft game). I've struggled a lot with this game so I was prepared for an impossible challenge. But somehow I beat her in my second try and it felt very easy? I don't understand.

This was the original illustration I did for the BG Insect token. When I updated the design of my tokens I couldn't find it, so I had to paint another one. The other day while looking for something else I found it! So I did a few changes and now it's G inset haha.

RC Antwerp is just over a week away! Sadly I didn’t have time to make proper Munitions tokens, but at least I made this one! I’ll also have 4 slots to make custom ones. If you want to make sure to get yours dm me!

Metal tokens!
I did some metal tokens for the last couple of events and since people seemed to like then I expanded the range a bit. I also made a more elaborate frame so they look a bit fancier 😁

"Arboreal Aberration" is the latest illustration I've done for my personal project. It's being a slow process, but at least I'm happy with what I've done so far.

I always thought that OG Ravnica multicoloured cards looked better than more modern editions and I assumed it was because I liked the art direction more. But now that I’m working in a Ravnica themed battlebox I realised the OG Ravnica frame is lighter than later editions’ ones!

My mom has compiled all my grandma's best/most popular recipes in a cookbook, with (very emotional) preludes by my uncles. I wanted to collaborate too, so I did a few illustrations (one for each section). These are most of them.
This is one of the most beautiful projects I've ever been involved.

Next stop: Antwerp! RC Antwerp is (likely) going to be my last event of the year. Belgium is a very special country for me, so I’m really excited to do an event there for the first time.
As it’s now tradition here’s the food token I’ve made for Belgium.
Who am I seeing there?

I’ve been following @tomgauld.bsky.social ‘s work for many many years and it was amazing to get to listen to him talking about his work and his new book “Physics for Cats” here in Barcelona.
I think Terry loves his portrait.

Still recovering from Liverpool, but there's no time to waste and I need to do a restock of tokens for Antwerp. Slowly I'm expanding the range of foil tokens available, which I use as an excuse to make some "improvements" to the original illustrations that no one else will notice.

Some treats I brought from Liverpool.
Counterbalance and Sylvan Library are for the 100DRS Cube, Krark-Clan Shaman for Pauper and Overgrown Tomb just because I didn’t have one in old frame :)
