#264 - Archive



I really like archive. Two of my daughters thought the main scroll dominated the picture too much.

#263 - Wall



The gate looks like some really large wooden blinds. This could have gone in as Haunted Wall as well. It's pretty bleak. Just to the right of the gate it looks like the artist has caught a rock mid-fall.

That is the end of group S.

#262 - Saboteur



So begins group R, 13 cards.

The Michelin man strikes again! The gloves he is wearing make his hands look really long and gross and the smoke doesn't seem very natural.

#261 - Council Room



Aside from noticing the hieroglyphics on the wall for the first time, what jsh had to say on the card is more than we could have said:

"Despite what some think, Dominion is a very socially progressive game. Here we see that the Council Room has chairs of various sizes; trolls, dwarves, and men of all shapes and sizes can unite to discuss council. There's no human height privilege here. From a distance, this card looks like a chocolate bar. If you don't believe me, try looking at it for yourself. Jokes aside, perspective is the only thing that actually ruins this picture for me, but it's hard not to notice once you're aware of the issue. Boy, these terminal draw cards are unfashionable. It's almost like the artists don't want me to win."

#260 - Estate



We can't figure out what that fountain is supposed to be. Presumably what are lily pads in the fountain look more to us like giant amoebas.

#259 - Workshop



Thor left his hammer on the table and Hannah Montana left her wig on the wall. Seriously, what is that wig thing on the wall?

[jamfamsam]

#258 - Diadem



There is a lot of orange tone in this art. What gem is that anyway?

[jamfamsam]

#257 - Secret Chamber



There is an awful lot of stuff going on here. We've got a guy coming in through one door, a trap door in the ceiling, a staircase going up underneath the picture of Salazar Slytherin, and a weird beast hiding in the bookshelves (one of my daughters picked that up, I had never noticed the eyes there before), and a floor made of glass or some standing water causing a reflection.

Probably a peridot

#256 - Trash



This is a nice collection of junk. The rocks look like they are attached to the pillar.

[jamfamsam]

#255 - Taxman



It's pretty cool that the artist got Telly Savalas to pose for the card art. The eyebrows are a little heavy. My daughters say this guy is on fleek but I don't know what that is.

[jamfamsam]

#254 - Bonfire



Here is the medieval Woodstock. The purple ground is groovy man. You've got the drugged up lady dancing in the background. The fire is so big that I'm pretty sure the nearby tent and banner will be bursting into flames shortly.

#253 - Margrave



Chong poses for this art. I like it but wonder why everything is tilted slightly.

[jamfamsam]

#252 - Dungeon



This is a very roomy dungeon. Nothing but the best for my prisoners.

[jamfamsam]

#251 - Bustling Village



Didn't quite capture the bustling part. First time I've seen a goose on a leash.

[jamfamsam]

#250 - Windfall



Snakes! Why does it have to be.... I mean....

Lava! Why does it have to be lava?

This is cool art but until I really scrutinized it I had no idea what was going on here. With the striped pants I thought it was part of a circus act and I couldn't figure out what that had to do with windfall. I see it all now, but it was confusing for a long time. I still don't get the striped pants.

That is the end of group R.

#249 - Hunting Grounds



This is the start of group Q, 12 cards.

There appear to be horns growing out of the back of the one deer. The guy in the foreground has some serious eyebrows and his right arm is much smaller than his left. I wonder why he isn't getting ready to shoot at the two animals. The hunt must be so good that he has other things to shoot at.

[jamfamsam]

#248 - Swindler



He's got something in his eye. There also appears to be a face in the tree.

[jamfamsam]

#247 - Mint



This is a solid piece of art. We weren't sure if the log was going to be a hard enough surface to mint coins on.

[jamfamsam]

#246 - Hoard



This is a nice big pile of treasure.

[jamfamsam]

#245 - Gardens



I'm starting to think that's a peacock and not a flowering shrub.

[jamfamsam]

#244 - Treasury



This would be a seriously dangerous place to enter and try to remove anything from. You'd be buried under a mountain of metal and gems.

[jamfamsam]

#243 - Expand



The sky and hills are psychedelic.

[jamfamsam]

#242 - Humble Castle



This art has a nice feel to it. My daughters think it looks more like a monastery than a castle.

[jamfamsam]

#241 - Moat



With this much gray it makes the water look more like sewage. I'm sure water in a moat wasn't all that clean to begin with.
