Which card has the WORST artwork?

I actually thibk Tomokazu Komiya has some of the best artwork. It really stands out and is quite unique.

I’ve already voiced this opinion, but I dislike most digital, iPad drawn artwork. It’s too refined and manufactured looking.

You all are going to rag on Komiya and Skyridge Gyarados. But then run around like chickens with their heads cut off for the next new set of 5Ban Graphics.

Two of the artists I collect, Komiya and Kusube, have been mentioned. But I love their work, and I actually get really sad when I see their cards with less stylized approaches. I agree with @tonysandlin that digital artwork looks way too perfect and flat. Himeno’s recent 2019 championship series card is a great example of an awesome concept/design (there’s so much detail!) that totally falls flat and boring because of the medium.

Anything with this general style

It’s not “technically” bad, it’s just so bland and forgettable it makes it bad.

I’m keeping this thread open now that people have started posting again, but just a reminder that bumping threads with a last post of over two months ago without providing new information is against the rules. I’m honestly blown away that people are able to dig up threads from 2014…

There you go 4star. Rules are guidelines that can be open to discretion. Well done;)

The Team Rocket Magnemite always got me. There is more detail in the energy symbol than in the background here.

Well considering this guy is a new member it is not weird for someone new to read old threads to get better knowledge of the site :blush:
