High Quality (HQ) art status -- tracking and discussion

This thread is designed to help us track which cards do not have high quality artwork in the CW, so that if anyone wants to help us find the art, they can.

Also, you can post here if you a card where the artwork that is of low quality.

If you decide to scan art for us, 300 DPI or higher is considered high quality.

The list below includes cards that are not HQ. All other cards in those sets have been confirmed to be of high quality.

This is a work in progress. I will add sets as I have time to go through the art in the CW.

Please feel free to comment with questions or links to missing HQ art.

The names in parenthesis are the artists (where known).

Dragons of Tarkir
Scion of Ugin -- need full card art (not text)

COMPLETE: AER, AKH, BFZ, C12, C13, C14, C15, C16, C17, EMN, FRF, HOD, KLD, KTK, OGW, ORI, SOI, THS, XLN, RIX, DOM, M19, GRN, ANA (Arena), PGP1, RNA

More sets to be added . . .

NOTES:
- The cards only contain a single expansion, so I am checking the cards based on the expansion listed in the code. So, a set might be marked complete above, but a card from it may still have LQ because it was reprinted or is a reprint. The listings here should match what you see when you use the Expansion column in the deck builder.
- I am not checking these based on a technical spec, but rather I am eyeballing them. I am looking through the cards in the deck builder. It's possible that some I think are HQ are actually LQ, but it may not be apparent to the eye. If you see any marked as complete that are actually appearing LQ to you, please let me know.

Vexing Scuttler is an official Magic Duels card, so I attached the original TDX file.

There's already a project to collect high quality artwork for every card. It's even here on this very website. I'm on my phone, or else I'd link you. Go up to board index and check pictures.

Either way, the CW itself will not have any particularly easy to use method of collecting just the hq art outside of being used in the game. At a certai threshold, Wizards will object and force it to be removed like they did with mtgimage.com. If someone wants to take the art from the CW and host it separately in an easy to use way, that's up to them. But it won't be hosted as part of the CW to avoid take down notices.

As far as a place to upload it: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id= ... lpYUE12cUk

Just upload them and post here that you've done so. That said, as they're converted, they'll also be removed from there.

I believe this is the link that Xander is referring to: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=12336

I'll still be going through the sets to determine which ones we need HQ art for in the original post. I expect to go through a few more sets this morning.
