Sorry to be technical, but the Illustrated by credit should really be going to whoever created the head/body, weapons and tiles that are in the picture.

Actually, it's just for flavor of the card, they are fun collectables, it's more like saying "I made this card." not the picture contained within the card. Illus. Raelyn Keizauft is referencing the whole card as a single unit, I drew it together from different sources.
What you're saying suggests that if someone uses pictures from a magazine in a collage, that the collage no longer is their art, but the art of the photographers? I'm sorry, but following that logic, alot of games would belong to the writer of the C++ language, and every windows compatible program would belong to microsoft. That really doesn't make alot of sense. Just because someone else designed something, and you altered it and added it as part of your own art, that doesn't make it their art once it has been altered. I could invert the mona lisa and call it my own creation, Inverta Lisa.
Sorry to be technical, but "Illustrated by" is little more than saying "displayed by", and I am displaying this card, so you're simply wrong, both artistically and technically.
