Just a favor about Multicolor Mana & some more things...

As I decided to change my idea for a custom playmat again from Chibi Walkers back to a mat w/ 4 Command Zone Slots (Kenrith Twins for Oathbreaker is why.); & many other things, while hoping to make it Grand Prix/Pro Tour/Other big Tourney-legal. But there is two things eluding me on such a path; Firstly, for the Mana, Rocks, & Dorks section, I'm completely unable to find a pic of a Multicolored Mana Symbol, only seen in MTG Arena.

Also, the Background in question will use The Planeswalker; but I'm unsure if the image in question, found here:

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/The_Planeswalker_(Magic:_The_Gathering)

is legitimate, or just bad fanart of "Evil Jace Beleren" in your estimating minds. Actually, I'm missing a third thing; but I'll have to do quests, rewards, among others to see what happens (& yes, it's about Sparky, otherwise affectionately known by me as Sparky-tan. ^W^). Just in case, I'll give all credit of such imagery to WotC/Hasbro/whoever else to give credit; of course I know my direction I'm heading will require this. That said, At least this is MTG ARENA Based for 2 factors. I dunno if this is the right place to put this here, but I'd like to find such a source in question, & one other from the URL to see if it's legit, & not a character in MTG Canon as a whole; but instead, the very embodiment of us as Planeswalkers.

Basically someone I'm guessing is from Duels of the Planeswalkers, but I've never played it enough AT ALL to confirm this. I wish you the best of luck. I'll be trying to unlock other modes in MTG Arena now... or at some point... X/

It is not enough to site the copyright holder, you have to actively obtain the rights to use the product. For official art, that is probably Wizards, though I've heard some of the more popular artists retain some rights to their artwork (not from any substantiated source, but it's possible). For fan art, it's most likely the artist who created the work.

I'm not going to tell you what you should or should not do, nor am I trying to get into an in-depth discussion of the law and defenses. However, you seemed to have some false assumptions regarding citing the work, which I wanted to point out.

@cdkime: I see. Alright. Disregard this request; I'll do this the low-tech way; My personal style. Mana Color/symbols, Trying to place 4 Command Zones w/ the same Template where cards go each, I might as well throw in a Fanon Post-Mending Era Walker representing me as a Neowalker; & even w/ my status, I think I might have some in me for my Cynical Views of our society, & ALOT of Ambition, in vein of Nobunaga-sama. Grixis effectively, but by no means am I a Necromancer. XP

& yes, such a Fanon Walker would represent me as a person, personality traits, & the like. How to make such a Walker after WAR, I'm at a loss. I'll that the rest from there. Thanks for the anonymous tip on legal issues BTW. :)
