For Challenge # 060: Hmm. It's some kind of insect gesticulating and holding something (a rock?) in a proprietary manner, while a nose in a suit is .. trying to calm him down? Looks like a political commentary. Not of anything specifically; just generally. Probably some terrible joke like "{waiter} I'm sorry the soup wasn't large enough to contain you, Sir. (See how this vaguely refers to the political situation! Ho ho, I'm so funny.)"
Uh, off topic a bit there.
So how about it's a guy and an insect haggling? Merchants typically draw cards. (In mtg, not in politics) And insects are green.
Green doesn't often get to do that - but it does when addressing the issue of enchantments. Let's do that.
And in tribute to the art origins; we'll end on a terrible pun.
actually add art url
That pun is awesome. Amusing for a non-EDH Zedruu-style deck: draw cards for the Pacifism going and then staying away.
You had me at "I'm sorry the soup wasn't large enough to contain you, sir." :D
Heh. "Stream of conciousness" ramblings can often be confused for wit :)
Yeah, it's like a mini Zedruu. Given enchantments often don't care who owns them, probably slightly too good. Testing would probably suggest an activation cost at the very least.
