I’ll Protect You!
"Stand back. I'll keep you safe!" Things might be getting a bit too hot for our planeswalking hero. But Enigma won't hesitate to throw himself into the fire to protect those who cannot protect themselves.Of course, it helps to be able to counter fire magic with...
Battle on the High Seas
Traveling the multi-verse, Enigma finds himself on a plane filled with the wonders of the sea, piracy, and treasure. To learn more about this new world, he finds some new clothes and uses a bit of illusion magic to blend in with the locals and...
Enigma, Adept Investigator
Another attempt to turn commissioned art into an MTG card. This was around the time I started realizing that the skill set I had given Enigma, when combined with the profession I had chosen for him, would necessarily involve incorporating Black into his color identity. And...
What Happened Here?
"Blood, a lot of it… but no body, and no evidence of being dragged. Could the rain have washed the trail away, or was magic involved?" This one was drawn by AlaiCinereo (FA/Twitter) back in April of 2018. Though I haven't seen the artist post anything for...
Enigma’s Summer Vacation
A commission from Erikku-Kun (FA/Twitter/Bsky) from back in January of 2018. We didn't know each other all too well at the time, but he was just starting to take on commissioned work, and I was interested because I like his style. The prompt I gave him...
Enigma’s First Reference
This was my first reference sheet I ever commissioned for Enigma, drawn by FenrirWolfen (FA/Twitter) back in December of 2017. While the core concept of a Planeswalking Detective/Mind Mage was cemented here, and remains a core part of the character to this day, much of the...
Enigma, Seeker of Truth
With the piece of art from GrandTaurus in the previous post came my first foray into crafting custom Magic: the Gathering cards, which would grow to be a running theme for much of my art going forward. Fun fact: I'm 90% sure "Seeker of Truth" is...
Delving Deep into the Unknown
Another early piece back from the days I was still working out the initial concept of Enigma. This time, the artist is Grimm, who goes by GrandTaurus (NSFW Warning if you click on his profile) on most of his socials. It also holds the distinction...
Enigma of the Azorius
Here he is, the first depiction of the Wolf Mind Mage himself, drawn by my good friend Maddie/Pyradox (NSFW if you click their profile) back in July of 2017. This was done as a favor to me, since we'd been friends for a long time...
The Times Before the Mind Mage
In a time before Enigma the Wolf Mind Mage and his world were even conceived (back in August-September of 2011), I had an entirely different concept in mind. The concept was an Urban Fantasy world where supernatural creatures like vampires and werewolves team up in...
