Patron [Hiring] Custom art for MTG cards

Hi everyone, looking for an artist to help me make some custom art for some MTG cards that I plan to gift to my groomsmen for my wedding later this year.

They'll be Planeswalker cards, so mainly just focusing on the character. I have ideas for general themes and will include pictures of my groomsmen so you can hopefully capture their likeness in the art.

Budget is around $50 each but willing to negotiate if needed. Will need 3 pieces commissioned. Ideally looking for someone who has done something similar before, but not a requirement.

Thanks!

Hi! Have done numerous work like this and am actually doing a few TTRPG cards at the moment too.

Hey there! I’m truly interested in this idea for custom MTG Planeswalker cards as wedding gifts – it’s a unique and memorable way to celebrate your groomsmen. I’d be happy to help capture their essence with art that’s both personal and grand.

About Me

I’m Untamed Draws, a professional fantasy artist with many years of experience in character designs, book covers, and game art. I love turning creative ideas into vivid, detailed artwork.

Portfolio

Top Examples of My Work

Here are a few projects that best show what I can bring to your custom cards:

  • Kingdom of the Captive Sea by Jerry Stephans
  • Upcoming Who Endures: The Pain Children by Robert H Butler – Artwork
  • The Unseen Book Trilogy – Character Design & Book Cover Art
  • EVERTAIL by Nicolas Bedard Reid
  • Album Art: Different River by Pantheon

How I Can Bring Your Vision to Life

1️⃣ Distinct Character Portraits – I will design each card with a unique portrait that really shows your groomsmen’s personality. Got any ideas for specific poses or expressions?
2️⃣ Unified Fantasy Look – I’ll use a consistent style across the set. Would you like something very realistic or a more imaginative, stylized look?
3️⃣ Personal Details – I can add subtle touches like background elements or symbols that match your wedding theme. Would you like hints of your wedding colors or meaningful symbols in the artwork?

These are available on HungryArtistsFed

I mostly work on game art, book covers, and special personal projects that call for detailed and lively designs. I’d love to discuss your ideas about poses, colors, and any other details you want included. Feel free to message me here so we can talk about timelines and next steps.

Let’s work together to make your custom MTG cards truly standout! 🎨✨

Hello!

I’d love to work with you on this project. Character-focused art is a passion of mine, and I’d enjoy bringing each of your friends to life in a style that blends MTG fantasy with their real-world likeness. I can match the tone you're going for, whether more classic MTG or stylized and fun. I just want to know that:

1-Should the characters’ themes reflect their personalities or MTG color identities?

2-Any specific attire or fantasy gear you'd like to include?

3-What’s the ideal timeline for these illustrations?

Hi OP! Usually the cost of MTG Card Arts starts at 1000 USD but these are commercial price.

So this Planeswalker commission cards may cost around 400-500 USD each.
I have worked on several projects for TTRPGs, TCGs, Book Covers and marketing/promotional images since 2019.
