MTGinktober crams in Day 27, "Snack," starring Sarulf, Realm Eater; Mishra, Excavation Prodigy; Urza, Powerstone Prodigy; Saheeli, Sublime Artificer; and Silver Myr! 

 Ah! We did it!  We've drawn every kind of Magic card--Real, Unreal, and Test, after wondering if such a thing were even possible, and now we've also hit all lifespans of cards--old, new, and now: previewed (day-of, to boot), but not-yet-printed.  I had sorta speculated an Inktober might coincide with a preview season at the modern release rate, and indeed this has happened--during that very same Inktober, no less.  It's funny they mentioned they wanted to embrace 90s vibes with their haircuts, and it turns out Mishra has a Z-like do and Urza has classic, 90s movie-villain kid hair.

 Fun Facts: I woke up and a bunch of Brothers' War previews went up, so I made an executive decision to ditch what I was planning to use for this composition (Lil'iana and Saheeli studying on Sarulf while Silver Myr and/or Azami brought them snacks) and went with a study break of sorts, where everyone grabs food and magically becomes an expert at whatever subject is giving anyone trouble--definitely nostalgic for those homework jam sessions at Yale.  Anyway, this is Saheeli's third MTGinktober appearance and Silver Myr's second.  

 Easter Eggs: Silver Myr and Sarulf are remnants of the old concept, but the Myr is also a shout-out to a fan who likes whenever I draw Myr, and Silver Myr's my favorite of the Kev Walker original mana Myr, so it all worked out.  The scrolls are inspired by those in Azami's art.  Some of the scrawling comes from The Mirari Conjecture.  Since Donato painted the bros, the food, aside from the Pocky come from his food token--made sure to keep the chocolate far from Sarulf, though.
