I think it might be easier to compare if you include the old art with it as well

For comparison purposes:



I personally love the art Thalas!!Try remaking the art for the cards as well! ^_^

Also, the upgraded card is named "Fire Buckler".

That's some excellent quality art! I like how magical it looks. I didn't have a particular problem with the fire shield art before, but I'd be happy to see it changed to yours.

I too like this new art much better.  I've always thought the Fire Shield art looked kind of goofy, but this looks like a legit magical shield of fire.

Great work on both cards! This fireshield sure looks like it would hurt when you hit it. :D
I'm personally not to fond of the curly top corners though, I think they'd look better if they where more pointy, but awesome nontheless!

Sounds great, somehow I think sharp corners would make it more "agressive".

I like it, but I'd like it more if the shield had a solid base.

If the current art had your flaming centerpiece, it would be amazing.
