I like Izzet even though I'm not a member, and Selesnya is just small and adorable!

Hm. I would've imagine the Rakdos to look more like some abomination from Silent Hill... lol

is that supposed to be trostani, like when she was younger or something?

This was drawn long before Return to Ravnica. The Selesnya character is a Selesnya Evangel.

The Rakdos personification is pretty much the same as Rakdos Augermage, who bears the portrait of Terry Soh, Magic invitational winner.
Therefore, we must assume that Terry Soh is the personification of Rakdos. DEAR GOD, TERRY SOH IS RAKDOS!

I have nothing against how you drew them, its actually pretty good. And I am aware that this is how you probably see those guilds, but have you read books Ravnica, Guildpact and Dissendions (aka official books about story behind Ravnica-block cards)? I bet these five guys would look very differently. Well, ok I am not sure in case of Azorius since I have not finished 3rd book, but other 4 are really out of the character how are described in those books.

and more explosive (Izzet's manas are red and blue so when cleverness is mix with recklessness it give mad scientific mages with some preferences for fire and electricity ^^)

The guy on the very right looks like me with my glasses on!
Kickin' it old school with the Rakdos! What a bunch of awesomely amazing psychopaths!!!

Your artwork is amazing, and the mix of two flavours (otaku and MtG) went over a lot better than when wizards tried.
Oh, and may I ask f you will personify the other 5?

I have no plans to do the other five.
Wizards couldn't make Kamigawa Block too otaku-centric, or they would alienate the traditional western fantasy audience. Imagine if the Split-Tail Miko were a "moe" lolita shrine maiden with fox ears and tail. There would be an outcry, to say the least, even if the otaku would eat it up.
Speaking of shrine maidens, I maintain that Mayael the Anima (from Alara Block) is a shrine maiden. Think about it for a while.
