Magic: The Gathering Artist Rachta Lin Reveals How She Illustrated Drizzt For Adventures in the Forgotten Realms

Over on Twitter, Lin shared a minute-long video of how she illustrated Drizzt, and it looks like the artist was commissioned to create it for Adventures in the Forgotten Realms set. Watch her art video in the tweet below: 

However, it looks like her version was not used for the main set. Could this art of Drizzt be featured in an upcoming Secret Lair drop? It would be awesome to have this art on a playmat. 

Drizzt is a drow elf escaping the shadows of Lolth to forge a path up to the light. A hero who is following the compass of his conscience into the blinding world above, and hoping it will lead him to people worthy of his sacrifice. He has a feline companion, Guenhwyvar, and both characters are featured in Adventures in the Forgotten Realms. You can watch the animated short featuring Drizzt here.
