Most unfortunate Magic Art
While reading the 'Worst Magic card' thread, I searched the Homelands expansion for some goldies. This brought me to the following card:

Yeah, he's a faerie alright.
It's not extremely bad per-se. But the art is so unfortunate, it deserves special attention.
So my mind began to wonder, what would be the worst Magic art? Since this is very subject to personal flavor, I figured perhaps see what the most unfortunate Magic art would be? The next card came to mind:

Uktabi Orangutan is referred to as 'Sex Monkeys' because of the monkeys in the back. It even got its own follow-up card in Unhinged:

So my question to you guys: what is the most unfortunate Magic art you've ever seen?

Cyclops penis and an almost naked cyclops woman riding a giant wang which has several smaller, also phallic-looking mushrooms on it.
Hard to beat that one.

Thornling has pretty unfortunate art in relation to the rest of the 'Lings.

I actually kind of like it - looks kind of like a mosaic.

Besides the Art being shitty, and the card not being 3/3, he's also an Elemental Shapeshifter instead of just a Shapeshifter. It's a complete 'ling'-outcast.

Not as unforunate as the rest (although this looks like a shemale), but this Robert Bliss guy certainly has issues.

Could be...Robert Bliss hasn't made new art for Magic since what? 1997?

Nah, this Robert Bliss is still around.
Most of his work is actually fantastic, loincloths notwithstanding.

Most of the 7th edition art...they all had new art, yet a lot of it seemed out of place for a set of reprints...
Re: Most unfortunate Magic Art
I can't seem to find a picture, probably because I'm at work but I believe the card was Deadshot and the guy in the picture looks a lot like OJ and he's got a knife in his hand. Then again I suppose that's only unfortunate if you're a waiter, or dating one.
Re: Most unfortunate Magic Art
If I knew how to post a picture, I would post one of muscle sliver. Why does the muscle sliver look like the alien from "Aliens" when all the other slivers look like giant, evil apostrophes? That has always vexed me. It's like Richard Kane Ferguson wanted to give Wizards a hearty "fuck you" that would be tournament playable once every five years.
Re: Most unfortunate Magic Art
This is one of the funniest innuendo's i've seen - the picture just completes the flavor text
So just what exactly is the initiation process to becoming a cleric en-Vec, and what do you mean by blows?

Re: Most unfortunate Magic Art
This is a famous one. Mostly because they removed the pentagram in later sets because parents were scared the game was satanic.
But what the hell is up with that pentagram anyway? Doesn't Douglas Schuler know how to draw a circle?!
