Crest for Mu Tau Gamma Fraternity

Well, it seems I have fallen behind posting here for a bit, so time to show some arts! As usual, I've been working on random tokens I/friends use or are in standard currently. Myself and Dr. Jeebus run Worm Harvest, a spell that can make a large number of little worms. In order to keep track of how many are the field, I took one for the team and drew these up.
Next token, I decided to draw a humanoid creature since most of my work shown thus far have been a bit monstrous. That's when I drew up Tart the ooze gal. Made her complexion pink like gum, set her in a nice crystal cavern and slapped her on a token. Since I already had an ooze token I changed the hue on the slime and scenery to match it. 
While working on the third token, I went from liking it to really enjoying the end result. The card this token belongs to is Spawnwrithe, an elemental snake mass that creates copies of itself when it deals combat damage to another player.  For a card that can make an army from itself, I figured it was worth making a token instead of buying multiple copies of the card. I used a very cartoony style on this but did a fair amount of work on the coloring/shading on everything. Aside from the art work, I was given a suggestion to expand the frame on the token card. Comparing it to the first couple posted with it, I will change the layout for future works, as well as prior ones eventually.
The most important piece I worked on lately was the logo for MTG Bro Deals. My friend, Dr Jeebus started the site to be similar to a magic fraternity of sorts and needs some designs to promote the site. I created this and now it is spread across the world in sticker form. Its a traditional design with banner and crown. The symbols on the crest are commonly seen on standard crests, though they were paired up with the appropriate ideal each color represents. Overall, this piece came out quite well and is being enjoyed by many people. It's a good feeling.
The only thing left here is the doodle for a morph card sleeve. The morph creature, which I refer to as morphlins, are face down cards that can be flipped over to reveal what was hiding inside. The idea is that a sleeve with an image of this on the back would give you something to see and provide stats such as power and toughness. That's the next little project I have lined up, though I'll have plenty of more tokens ahead as well. Until then, enjoy my odd whimsy!
