Alteration

Does anyone on here do card alters?
I'm looking for tips.
I currently just use notmal acrylic sometimes mixed with a gloss. I just paint right on top but some times it doesn't work out is there better paint or technique?

You should just be happy you have the steady hand to do that!

It's cool that people can do that stuff, and I wish I could help.
But I'm not artistic.

Plus 1 for being able to do that!

Ty xD I mostly extend original art I have not yet tackled doing my own art on them (failed horribly at all attempts) I wish paint wasn't so expensive otherwise I'd do it allot more :p

Card alterations? Meaning make your own cards? My brother has a hand full of blank mtg cards. No name/picture/text, but it has a boarder and boxes where everything goes.

That's neat how did he get those ?

He made them out of thin air.

My brother has been playing mtg since he was 16. He's 32 now. He has a small handful of Alpha cards. And over 200 Beta cards. He got the blank ones from old tourneys.

A friend of mine makes custom tokens. You can acetone the ink off of mtg cards, leaving yourself with a blank card to print on. Certain sets keep their foiling, leaving you with blank foils. With the right tools and some skill, you can make some pretty cool cards. I give him all of my junk foils, and he makes me goodies, like a Monty Python Black Knight. My next commission for him is an X/X Earthworm Jim Wurm token.

I've tried the acetone (nail polish remover) but I usually end up with 1 or 2 wrecked corners practice makes perfect though.
