Default [Official] The Proxy Card Thread

This is thread for all the commonly asked for proxies. The first post will be updated as more and more proxies are contributed. If you have a set or know where a set is, link me to it via PM. I'd like to keep this thread nice and neat if possible.

*This thread IS NOT FOR THE WEAK OF HEART* Each small image below is a link to a large image, MWS sized [300 dpi], in foil AND non-foil [aren't i nice?] Your computer might melt due to the awesomeness.*

Not all of these are renders by me. [and thus some aren't that big] If you wish for me to create proxies then supply art or something and I'll get on that. I haven't decided whether or not i should include textless cards that have already been printed. I'm leaning to no. There's already large images for that -> CCGHQ Team

If you feel there is a card that deserves to be here because it's a commonly wanted proxy [Bazaar?] then post with a render, i'll add it or request a render. [see above.]

*Everyone, bow before Silvercut for he has shown me how to do linked thumbnails! All images below are now links to the full sized image. You can browse without the fear that your computer will melt from the stress. Only the awesomeness will do that now.*


Here is a complete list by card color/type of the cards within the spoilers below;

Lands
*Original Dual Lands (all 10)
Bazaar Of Baghdad
Mishra's Factory
Mishra's Workshop
Library of Alexandria
The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale

Artifact
Mox Pearl

Mox Jet

Mox Emerald
Black Lotus
Mana Crypt

My computer melted from the awesomeness! :-(

I should have heeded your warning oh great FKIH!

Really though, thanks! This was a great idea and I'm sure it'll be well used.

The resolution on my Mana Drain is sad, so I made this instead:

I could make a regular version as well if people want it...

EDIT: Fixed casting cost size

A common place to post frequently requested photoshop'd images. This is a very good idea. Each image should be labeled by name though so that they can be found easier with the search tool. Then it wouldn't matter whether or not the first post is continually updated.



[spoiler=Spoiler tags around]Big pictures![/spoiler]

Spoiler tags around:
Big pictures!


At the very least, it least makes navigation through a thread easier.

slivercut-- thanks... Didn't know the rules heh.

BTW-- Kaldra: If you check my vintage painting thread, you can grab high res versions of both my Time Walk and my Mana Drain to make hi-res cards of...

Time Walk especially, as there is no other good proxy art (which is what I am trying to paint now...) I prefer the textless Mana Drain myself anyway

I'll keep everyone posted on the in progress Sapphire art as well.

Erm-- This is for printable proxy art. Not really hand-made alters, though there is a thread for that already as well....

Check the spoiler;

Spoiler:

There are two ways, print them @ 300 dpi [photoshop makes this easy-ish, depends on your skill with it] onto normal paper, spray glue the back, then stick it to a card, or print it @ 300 dpi [the big ones, MWS scans works too], then tape a blanked card [erase the face away] onto the printout, then run it through the printer again, make sure the paper feeds the right way. This latter method only works with laser printers, but the first works with either laser or inkjet. The former method makes the card thicker, just so you know. People have used the latter method to attain foil cards as well. [simply erase a foil card and do the same thing] Don't use the foil image in the first post for a foil printout.


Would you suggest a card for the thread?
