Rebecca Guay sauvée par ses fans !!!

Et oui, la nouvelle viens de tomber :
devant la masse de courrier de protestation, Wizards et Hasbro ont cédés. Rebecca guay réintègre donc l'équipe des dessinateurs de Magic. Voici son E-mail qui en atteste :


Dear Friends,

Please excuse the "bulk" nature of this e-mail. I find that this is the best way at the moment to respond to the hundreds of messages you have recently sent me regarding my being dropped from Magic. Thank you all for your kind wishes and your passionate support of my work.

I thought you all might like to know what is currently going on at Wizards.

As many of you you know I was informed last fall that my work was no longer right for Magic. After doing some asking around it seemed to boil down to the fact that my work-often thought of as atmospheric/feminine-was not "bad-ass" enough.

When word of this spread, in conjunction with my absence from the recent Magic release, a great wave of discontented e-mails flooded into Wizards (and apparently Hasbro, Wizards parent company, as well).

Jeremy Cranford, the art director for Magic called me today. We had a very good and productive conversation. We had a chance to get to know each other better and he seems like a good person, in a difficult position. He is new in his position, trying to do his job and please everyone at the same time. As with any large company there are sometimes larger forces at work as I think may have been the case with the initial decisions regarding my work. A great deal of mis-conception and confusion was cleared up and in the end we both look forward to working together in the future.

Jeremy is releasing a statement along with the PR dept. tomorrow on the Wizards web site giving further explanation and assurance of my future presence in MTG.

I am overwhelmed and amazed at the support and devotion of my fans. In total,I may have told ten people about the decision at Wizards. Within a few weeks - hundreds and hundreds responded! You are incredible, and with your efforts you have changed the course of things!

Jeremy said to me on the phone tonight - "look out for Rebecca's fans!"

My work may not be Bad-Ass but my wonderful fans certainly have enough Bad-Ass to go around! You Rock!

You have all my love admiration and devotion.
I paint for all of you!
Rebecca



Et voici aussi la lettre officielle de Jeremy Cranford, directeur artistique de wizards :


"To clear up some of the confusion, Rebecca Guay was not fired by Wizards of the Coast; she is a freelance artist who works with us from time to time. In fact, Rebecca is currently working with WotC on other projects in our Dungeons and Dragons line.

"In the Legions set, the creative team had to think of a way to show what happened to Otaria after Kamahl destroyed the Mirari. We decided we would show the effect of this magic by making really intense exaggerated versions of all of the creatures. We would have 'super versions' and 'hyper versions' of Soldiers, Clerics, Wizards, Zombies, Goblins, Elves, etc. Even the land would evolve over the course of Onslaught block. When selecting artists, the creative team selected artists that we felt would fit precisely within this vision of what Otaria was becoming.

"Even though Rebecca was not selected for work in the Legions set, Rebecca continues to be a highly valued part of our art team. Rebecca and I have discussed this and I have assured her that her art will appear in future Magic expansions.

"This decision for the Legions set does not mean that I personally do not like watercolor. You should see the beautiful watercolor mural that Rob Alexander did for the recent special Arena promo land cards. It doesn't mean I favor gauche, oil, acrylic or mixed media. What it does mean is that I use my best judgment to select the best artist for the job of helping to create the truly unique 'Mage-Punk' fantasy settings that can only exist within the universe of Magic: The Gathering.

"Anything else is pure speculation and is also incorrect."





Comme vous popuvez le constater, les deux veesios diffèrent énormément. Donc, a vous de juger.

les traduire sa serai pas mal car moi je maitrise pas l'anglais

En gros, Rebecca Guay explique que c'est grâce aux joueurs qui ont protesté, et le directeur artistique dit que Rebecca n'était pas virée, mais juste mise sur la touche car son style ne correspondait pas à Légion.

ceci est très bien parce que c'etati mon illustrateur préféreé

Je trouve que Jeremy Cranford est un gland Son explication est trop boiteuse limite j'ai envie de lui filer une pièce tellement il me fait pitié.

Et revanche, Rebecca Guay, toujours égale a elle-même, est trop puissante. Chuis trop content qu'elle reprenne.
Vive Rebecca Guay, l'amour, le lait demi-écrémé et le jus d'orange!!!

ouais
elle est pas viree
ouf
