[9th] Possible Large Art for Serra Angel

This image is the ones used currently on Magic Online for the splash screen.

I don't think this art could be anything but Serra Angel.


If it's been already found, well, at least this one's probably a good deal larger.

well a portion of that picture appears on the white preconstructed deck, and the wizards article sed "i wonder which angel that could be..." in an obvious sounding way, so im pretty sure that is the art for serra angel

btw thats a pretty sweet piece of art, im loving those huge wings.. altho ill probably never play serra angel in my lifetime

Could be Serra, or another angel, or even something else. No one really knows. If it is, cool.

Actually- Serra appears on the cover, but Serra Angel does not. The art on the box is the Urza's Saga and Eigth Edition art for Glorious Anthem which does feature everybody's favorite flying, vigilant, femme.

my bad my bad, i was refering to the art on core game set shown here:
http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=mtgcom/arcana/763

and as you can see they clearly state:
"some sort of winged woman with a sword. Huh."

i believe the "Huh" is a pretty implicit way of saying that the art IS of serra angel

btw i think the one collectible premium card included in the set is serra angel

Must be fun trying to wield a sword and not cut off a wing.

Cool art.
