Greetings!

Welcome to Altered Cards. I've been altering Magic the Gathering cards for a while and I wanted to start sharing some images of my recent alters. Feel free to comment. I can be reached at tedsimagination@hotmail.com if you have any questions or would like to have any of your own cards altered.

Condescend

Altered with Prismacolor markers, I simply extended the magical effect already present in the image. The metallic color is reflective and works better with this image in real light than it does when scanned.

Elvish Visionary

Altered with Prismacolor, experimenting with lightning effects.

Glimmerpoint Stag

Naya Charm

Inspired Sprite

Thrive

Gluttonous Slime

Goblin Ruinblaster

Soul's Fire

Soul's Fire (Acrylic)
I chose this particular card to alter because the pattern of the flame was very easy to recreate with the acrylics. I blackened the background to make the image seem a little more dynamic and extended the flames through the borders.

First Acrylic Alter


This is the first card I ever altered using acrylic paints. Basically just a borderless extension of the original artwork.

My 1st Alters


These are the very 1st cards I ever altered using ink. Very boring, but gave me some practice .
