Maybe you'll go on to sell commons for $40, and people buy them. They'd be that good

I looked heavily into this after meeting steve argyle and felix and talking to them both for a while. I decided to stick to sharpies on mats cause the paint pens that Argyle uses are super expensive. I think i found the set or atleast tHe brand on his website.

Edit: Copic markers are some that he uses.

Do you know if he mention DecoArt markers? They are acrylic paint markers I love to use for graffiti thought they might work ok for small things

I think felix mentioned those actually, or maybe RK Post, but i know Argyle didnt mention them. I think those are some of the ones go one a little thick and are hard to keep the card playable with.

If I see the guy that did some of my cards I'll ask him. He charged $10 per alter on your card or added $10 to his side of a trade of you where trade for his.

Ok haha you guys got your laughs but I ment this to be completely serious...
I'd love to be able to provide this kind of service to imtg users at much more reasonable prices then what is seen on eBay and such. And well art and mtg are my life basicly so I'd love to combine the two
