for the Magic the Gathering fans

Got bored waiting for new chapters, so I thought I would put this little puppy together. If you got any requests for other characters, or want to see different versions of Guts just let me know.

very creative, but why is it human sacrifice? wouldn't that be more of a griffith thing? i'd love to see you do puck, schierke, maybe even roderick (though with roderick it would really be his ship). yeah, do roderick's ship.

Ha ha, I love made-up Magic cards. I'm a total nerd that way. IIRC there used to be a freeware program that would automate most of the process so that you wouldn't have to put so much Photoshop work into making each one, but WotC put a stop to it (they're kinda dicks that way).

Heh.

He's a Human Sacrifice because that's what Griffith made him, and the brand is there to prove it.

I'm sure you must get this alot, but the Berserk Abridged series was freaking epic. Anyway, I didn't have to photoshop that card. There used to be a website where you could make cards, but it was recently taken down, so I downloaded this program called Magic Set Editor 2 (This is what I used). It's actually way easier to use, and gives way more options to play around with. You gave me an interesting idea with Griffith and Femto though. I'm gonna try to build on that.

WOOT!!! Magic confuses the hell out of me, especially the new rules, but that's just awesome (especially cuz it's Roderick).

You should do something with fairies like Puck getting a bonus from especially moody characters like Guts, I seem to remember that happening in the manga early on. You do realize that you must now do all the main characters, at least from Guts' crew.

Not sure if that was the name of the program I was thinking of or not: I had no idea any version of it was still being supported. I decided to hunt it up and play around with it a bit.

I don't mind, but picture hunting is a bitch. Looking for Roderick or a good pic of the boat was kinda difficult. If you can find the pics you want or tell me what volume/chapter/page the picture is on, then I'm game.

EDIT - I want to make a spell out of Puck called "Puck Off". Know any good pictures as a reference?

In the meantime here is the Griffith/Femto combo hbi2k requested.

and as an added bonus, I made the Crimson Behelit, so it can be a bit easier to get Femto out.

in order to save space, I'm gonna start posting links instead of the entire image. Also That Young Griffith looks real as hell. I think you hit the nail on the head with that one.

These are wonderful! Keep up the good work guys, these are a really amusing way to pass the time.

Though I do think the Femto card is a little underpowered...

I agree, so I whipped up a couple of creature enchantments:

And, well, yes, a couple more creatures:

This is my last version of Griffith, I promise. (-:

LOL. Though the flavor text should really be "I'd tap that ass." according to his abilities :D

These are all brilliant. I especially love the Black Swordsmen one. It would be an awesome card to play with. Bravo!

Just let me know if I'm getting annoying with these. (-: Decided to have some more fun with the whole "tapping = sex" idea.

I've actually started re-reading the manga just to look for card images.

Its official, I have been completely out-nerded.


And to think I considered myself pretty nerdy......

Well, I'm off to make some omakes. That ought to cheer me up.

BWUHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Holy crap that made my day. Also gave me the nerdiest idea ever. Look for references to "Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog" in Berserk, and make magic cards out of ehm.
