A Set in Four Cards: Sturmkraft

Holmstadt Zeppelin (uncommon)
{4}
Artifact Creature - Vehicle
Flying
Board ({1}, tap an untapped non-Vehicle creature you control: CARDNAME gets +X/+0 for as long as that creature remains tapped, where X is that creature's power. Board only as a sorcery.)
2/2

Powerfang Marauder (common)
{1}{B}
Creature - Vampire Rogue
{1}⚙: CARDNAME gets +2/+2 and gains lifelink until end of turn. ( can be paid with one mana from an artifact permanent.)
2/1

Spark Transformer (uncommon)
{7}
Artifact
Whenever you cast a spell, CARDNAME deals 2 damage to target opponent.
Remodel (As an additional cost to cast CARDNAME, you may sacrifice an artifact. If you do, reduce the cost of this spell by that artifact's converted mana cost and draw a card.)

Lufthaven Factory (uncommon)
Artifact Land
CARDNAME enters the battlefield tapped.
{T}: Add {W} or {U} to your mana pool.

The New Card Frame

Yesterday, Aaron Forsythe presented a new card frame that will be used on all Magic cards from M15 going forward. I tend to be a bigger supporter of change than the average Magic Twitterer. (The only thing I didn't love about the M10 rules changes was the way deathtouch worked—and they changed that to match my suggestion soon enough.) I'm mostly a fan of this change too.

Weekend Art Challenge
Click through to see this weekend's art and the design requirements for your card submission, due Monday morning. Every submission warrants feedback, which I will try to provide, and which everyone is welcome to provide as well.

If you choose, you may use that feedback to revise your submission any number of times. I will post and review the most recent submission from each designer some time on Monday, life permitting. To help ensure I recreate your design accurately, please use CARDNAME instead of ~ in your submissions.
