Title: Alter a card!!! (Challenge)
Post by: Juggalonoke on December 04, 2012, 11:29:57 PM
Ok people this one is for the artistic players out there!! Now I'm not offering prizes for this one only because I'm probably going to end up offering trades to the people who do the ones I like most. Oh WTH top 3 best ones will get in order 1st to 3rd, 3 random foils, 2 RF, 1 RF
  Now what I want you to do is pick a card and do your own personal alters on them. (still must be tournament legal playable once finished) Artistic medium dose not matter to me (hand painted, sharpies, high quality printed foil, ect.... No purchased alters allowed must make it yourself trusting you all again.
  So I'm not sure how people post pictures in there posts on here but I would prefer entry to be submitted that way.
Entry deadline will be New Year's Eve. Top 3 will be chosen by end of the month.

Here goes. The foil Iona and Riku are very hard to take pictures of due to the super-foilness. Enjoy!
First up:

Sword of War and Peace. Basically just a border alter, I think it came out quite nicely.
Next:

Oh, Iona. Her features were intentionally obscured- there's glare from a huge sunburst behind me. And yes, she is smashing a tower with a lightning bolt. And yes, she is that big.
Finally:
http://imgur.com/GDWxV
Riku, my commander! Not much to say here but I think it turned out nicely also.

Honestly the only one that really looks like an alter Is the sword the other two look like they are foil proxys you made but they are still great looking

Yeah, they are foil proxies. Probably don't count as alters then eh? Thanks for the compliment!

Yes- the sword is indeed painted. The proxies are foil cards I scraped the ink off of and printed out the custom images I made.
Feel free to PM me your request but I normally don't have the time to make these :D

What do you use to alter the cards?
What kind of markers/paints?

Anything you feel would work or look good. I personally used "citadel" layer paint. The same paint that my lgs sells for the warhammer figures and what not. It was the easiest thing to find. I do suggest useing a water based latex paint though. It's thinner and will allow you to just start painting where as a thicker say oil based paint you'll have to thin out alot to keep the card as close to playable legal as possible.

Thanks!
Do you actually paint onto the card with brushes?

If you are looking to do foil alters or trying to make foil blanks: Avacyn Restored has the easiest ink to remove off of foils. Use nail polish remover and it comes right off.
