There are exactly 2 #MagicTheGathering cards that feature #ferrets, another 2 that are specifically weasels (yes, only 2 in all of Bloomburrow), and one winged weasel that I know of. Mustelids as a whole have plenty of representation with all the badgers, otters, and wolverines.. but ferrets and weasels are scarce. I went ahead and got all 5 cards and glued sleeves to a painted background for them.
I found more cards with #ferrets or weasels on them:
Cruelclaw's Heist & its art card
Ruthless Negotiation & its art card
The Infamous Cruelclaw's art card
Crossroads Watcher art card
Artist's Talent
Bronze Sable
I'm trying to arrange them on a larger canvas in a logical but aesthetically pleasing way. But I just ran into a slight snag.. I found more cards with ferrets or weasels on them.
So.. do I get ALL of the cards and try to cram them onto the canvas? I'm not even sure I could make them all fit without overlapping (and I definitely don't want them to overlap.)
Prominently featured weasel:
Weaselback Redcap - I can probably fit this comfortably on the canvas, and have included it in the mockup below.
Tiny weasels:
Gang of Elk (from Urza's Legacy) - there's a ferret in the bottom right corner.
Harmony of Nature - there's a small weasel on the right side.
Academy Loremaster - there's an ermine sitting on the book strapped to the loremaster's belt.
Thoughts? That bottom row does look kinda empty, I could fit two more cards.. but probably not three.
I did see those!
I considered Harmony of Nature, but I don't think I can fit that many cards on the canvas, and the weasel is *so* tiny.
The mustelid on Umbra Mystic is small and faint too, not prominent enough to try to fit it onto an already crowded canvas.
And I'm not convinced that's a wezul on Sudden Substitution. That face doesn't look like any wezul face I've ever seen. It doesn't even have any ears. >_>
Okay, so I did manage to fit Harmony of Nature. I'm not sure this layout is entirely "aesthetically pleasing" but maybe it'll do?
I added cyan borders to the cards to represent the hard plastic sleeves they'll be in, and a black border on the background for the space the frame takes up.
