Description
Same pic as "GoldenAxe CCG Mat", just with a little PS done on it.

So about a year or so ago,
I was given a blank CCG mat and bidden:
"Draw something on this".
I had worked on it sparsely since then.

I wasn't getting paid for it, and I was never given a deadline for it.
So I didn't REALLY consider it a commission, and kind of just slacked off about the whole thing.
But in hindsight, I probably should have treated it as though it a real commission.
It had only been about a 3rd way done for months,
When I was asked about it again earlier this month,
I resolved to finish it before the month was out.
And I did.

(I do take commissions, and I do get to them in a timely manner now!)

As I really don't play any CCG's,
I was a little at a loss for subject matter.
But in keeping with S&S theme of many a CCG,
I chose to go with the old classic SEGA game GoldenAxe.
Although it's mostly based on the 1st GoldenAxe game,
I chose to use DeathAdder's design from the later games.

(Anyone out there ever make any custom Magic cards? DeathAdder card would be cool!)

Did a pencil layout on 11x17 paper 1st.
The mat itself was done with various markers and ink pens,
but the final didn't quite end up looking like the pencil work.
It was a learning experience though.
There are some parts I really screwed up on.
But now I know what, where, and when much better, to use markers and inks.
(still stinks like markers too...gotta let it air out)
Had a heck of a time scanning this in too.
All I could do was scan it in pieces, and PS them together.

Again....
I don't play any CCG's,
so I really dunno what to do with it now.
