MTGinktober barks at Day 21, "Bad Dog," starring Trostani, Selesnya's Voice and Ruff, Underdog Champ!

Man, just can't get out of this cycle of being unable to sleep, and then I'm exhausted during the day and have to scramble to get the drawing done.  But I also had to dogsit today, oddly enough, and this hound gets jumpy and needs attention later in the day (used to sleep all day...), so that's time lost making sure this dog isn't tearing up the joint.

Fun Facts:  If we count Trostani as three characters, it seems illustrations involving dogs tend to have a lot of characters.  This is also our first test card illustration--I tried to match the original artist Seth Conley's strokes in the hatching.  With this, it seems I've hit every kind of Magic card--"real," "UnReal," and now Test Card.  I have no intention of doing Universe Beyond stuff, those are absolutely not real Magic cards.

 
Easter Eggs: The background is a fusion of all (three!) Trostanis' backgrounds--our Chippy anchor of course,  with branches and animals strewn about, plus tree trunks from Chase Stone's and Sidharth Chaturvedi's versions.
