The filigree girl and the abattoir are both astounding. I'm particularly shocked and impressed to see something so graphic in the game. It makes me actually excited for Grixis.
Media is not making me steal. But in a way is like the story of the very hot girl with the short skirt teasing the old sick guy with a history of rape.
The girl with the vines looks awesome. Also the one of the warrior women fighting off goblins looks cool too. I am excited more for the new set now more than ever.
Also I notest if you look up Planeswalkers on the site there is new art that looks awesome. It's the original 5 but do like the new art of some of them.
The very first two definatly look like mages that have activated abilities pertaining to their allied colors. The first one is Grixis and the second is Esper. All these look great.
The first two arts look like guildmages, almost. A (presumably) blue wizard with a white and a black orb that she's manipulating, as well as a black wizard/shaman manipulating both blue and red energies.
Also, it definitely looks like Bant is having some sort of obsession with charms/coins on it's human (and possibly angel) occupants.

So i take it we'll also be seeing new versions of chandra and jace considering the art????
As for Jace and Chandra, some of the arts are for the special product "Duel Decks: Jace vs. Chandra". As for the others, they are either from comics, or styleguide/sketch material, or some some promo poster arts. Some of them are yet unused, so we'll have to wait whether they're gonna use them anywhere.

Were it not for the lack of pointy ears, I'd think that Silhana Ledgewalker was coming back.
Don't forget that Assassins are supposed to be a relevant class.
The one with Chandra lashing out with a bunch of lines of fire... Could that be Blazing Salvo? I always thought that card was figgin awesome (the best Punisher card imho... though probably too similar to Lash Out), and as much as people hate the "punisher" mechanic, it IS very Jund (a little chaotic).
Otherwise, all of the art looks fantastic... Even the "meh" ones are pretty good, they just pale next to the absolutely stunning ones.
Jarvis certainly outdid himself on that amazing Knight.
didn't notice before, but those are definitely "bats" flying with Vein Drinker. So she probably DOES have some kind of ability involving them.
It would be nice to have Dryads back (one of my favorite creature types). Vine Dryad would be particularly cool.
I for one am now stoked for dinosaurs in Naya. Preferably lots of them. And the new images for Esper definitely seem to continue the associations with Dune from Sharuum, in my opinion at least. Especially if the depiction of a desert in the 5-way land-split for Alara is the Esper chunk.

JUST TO CLARIFY: THERE ARE ARTS FOR BOTH Shards of Alara and the planeswalkers. Seeing Jace and Chandra here DOES NOT mean they are in Alara.

There was Sharuum the Hegemon and Predator Dragon as well, but these are known already.

i guess chandra is back too?

More 'walker goodness - Chandra, Liliana, Jace.
Apparently no. Before some confusion arises...These are new arts from the whole page, not only for Alara.

Remember in the TCGplayer interview when MaRo said that we'd see them casting iconic spells? Yeah.
Man, it's so atmospheric and creepy. Honestly one of the most frightening and/or disturbing images I've ever seen for Magic.
EDIT: And perhaps Imperiosaur is coming if we have dinosaurs in this set? I don't know.
