Hi Charlequin
As requested, I have sent you the 29 Full Art HQ pics of the original Art, just one is missing: Mind's Eye from David Gaillet. Let me know if you need anything else. Take Care.

dragsamou, could I get those pictures, please?
The latest images for Manalink will be here.
The latest Manalink installation directory will be here. Well, not quite, anymore. Check the latest patches.

Do you need all of them, or just specific ones, ? You can find all of them on my website in the index of the Masterpiece Series Cards but in reduced sizes. Please PM me. Thanks

@charlequin, Will the Kaladesh Inventions be released in 300DPI?
I couldn't find them in the Mega folder.

Yep. I have a bunch of bookkeeping to do in getting them properly named and organized before they go up on MEGA so I just hadn't gotten to that yet. Should be in the next couple days.ohforf wrote:@charlequin, Will the Kaladesh Inventions be released in 300DPI?

The Zendikar Expeditions have also been color corrected to fall in a much closer band of color and brightness:
Updated versions are on MEGA now.

Aaaaaand that's the whole set. As with some previous large promo sets, let me know if anything seems funky -- these are from multiple sources, and I corrected them based on the WotC images but it's always possible I missed something.

Great work! My only grief here is that in most Inventions card the name of the artist disappears due to the foil effect What's the reason for that? Photographic process or scanner can't pick the foil up?

There are a few different foil processes that WotC typically uses for cards. Out of these, the Kaladesh Inventions use a normal foil (which scans okay) for the illustrations and text boxes, but the FTV method for the copper border, piping, and bottom text. I'm not sure of how exactly it works, but the FTV foiling causes vertical bands of either darker or lighter color.tempest wrote:Great work!

For various reasons I didn't want to try to eliminate this completely from the actual card and frame portions, but I have multiple source images for all these cards so I could possibly touch up the bottom text.

Do you know if there is a judge reward card named Grindstone this year?
I play xmage and in the clent's JR set there is this card but I checked all over the internet and found that this card is not a judge card.
Thank you and sorry for my not good English.

There are (as there have been for most recent years) eight cards in the Judge Gift series for 2016. So far we know what five of them are: Mana Drain, Azusa Lost but Seeking, Command Tower, and the two here. The other three aren't confirmed yet. However: there was at least one claim (before this last batch was revealed) that Defense of the Heart and Grindstone would be judge promos this year, and there's a new illustration for the card in Duels 2014, the same place we first saw the current Defense of the Heart illustration:tkz196 wrote:Do you know if there is a judge reward card named Grindstone this year?

So basically, my conclusion here is that one of the three remaining slots for 2016 is probably Grindstone, but we haven't seen it yet and I don't know when we will.

I also went back and redid the SDCC 2016 images to have more accurate colors and remove foil artifacts as much as possible:
