I want to keep this distinct from a “what if” scenario of sets before the introduction of full art rarity.
So from the set of Team-Up forward, which card art, do you think deserved to be given the “alt full art” style treatment? I believe this was the first set to have fully illustrated whole card art alternate versions of cards. So keep it to just that set forward.
Just for clarity of the question, I mean the kind of card like an Illustration Rare or Special illustration rare type of card art. Not the “full art” shorthand we use for things with the monochrome backgrounds.
I’ll get us started:
This card has some really pretty scenery which I think would benefit from being expanded and more visible. Much like the one for groudon IR.
I always wondered what this Riolu would look like as a full art. I just think all the colours look really pretty! And it looks like Riolu is right by a lake or some water, so reflecting the sky and more of the pretty colours I think could look really cool!
I think the reason i initially disliked this one is because the art windows in Sun and Moon are so damn small. A fullart would have done it more justice, it’s awesome and incredibly dynamic/detailed
Ahh, a fellow Fusion Strike Smeargle enjoyer. I honestly think this is one of the nicest cards ever made lmao, I dream of it going the other way and seeing it as a vintage cosmos holo -
I know Steelix had an IR recently but when I see that card I think what an incredible sense of scale could have been created with a full art, the proportions and perspective are perfect for it.
