Oh god... BAD BAD BAD BAD..... I shouldn't bother even posting... lol
Well despite my best attempts at a card alter I did it. My first alter was your run of the mill land card... Go ahead give me your thoughts.
Please.... Be gentle.... it's my first time...
The color matching is pretty good, especially for a first time alter.
The paint is too thick. Try putting on a thin prime coat first (after erasing the existing border) and then putting thin layers of color over that.

Everyone in car:.....!?!?!?
I am looking for Xx Copies of Angelic Destiny, in all Languages, Foil and Non-Foil as well.
This is a good looking card. Too bad it's completely obsolete as of like 6 hours ago.
Not really.
You can play both in Highlander-formats.

Hey all, I haven't really had a whole lot of free time in the last couple of months. I'm on vacation in California with my family, and due to the road outside of the house we're staying in being closed for the day, I did this:
I'm pretty happy with the background, but I feel like ol' Bolas needs a bit more work, mostly in the way of texturing and such. I realize that I totally forgot his arms; not sure if I'll add them in. The feet were also a huge pain so I just left them as the basic shapes I originally sketched in, and even though they're kinda weird I like them. Any suggestions other than that, though?
This looks like a cross between a greyhound and a dragon. I absolutely love it. The only thing I think would improve it is a thicker, more serpentine neck. That pencil neck takes away from the strength of the thick upper body and haunches.

What urbanlegend said about Bolas. It really does capture more of the majesty of him as opposed to the malice and evil and machinations thousandsofyearsinthemaking. I like. Thumbs up.

GAL's JHOIRA is just AMAZING! it's carefully done..wow
SURFPOSSUM: love that bolas too, everything is great, just make the background color gradient even, the dragon is PERFECT!
Wow I love the Jhoira! The level of detail is amazing? Mind sharing what techniques/brushes you use? After digging online apparently they are 00000 size warhammer brushes for miniatures. I need to get my hands on those.
@ bolas, awesome! Really cool n fun!
@ Aduna khor, nice gargoyle! I like what you did to the original picture too, making it somewhat wintery. I do believe the white could be more refined with a tooth pick, crafting the edges since theres no bottom paint underneath it. @ sooro's islands. Good job! The colour blending looks superb. I see alot of visible brush strokes though. Was it intentional or is your paint not flowing well? @ Poxy forces, Amazer-ing as always. Muhamad Ali and MJ, w00t! @ laura, those cards have alot of imagination put into it. Love the extra detail at the bottom of the card, especially the eyeballs! They fit right in. Cheers.
Wow alot of great work can happen in a day! The following is my small and humble 2nd try at my fav card, Twilight shepherd. I hope it does the card justice this time!
I wanna suspend them as early as turn 3
All of the other players, they be hatin' me (I love it) Obliterate followed by Epic Dominion and Emmy when you're cast if you're not hasty you're no fun, fun

I couldn't stop myself. I will admit that I didn't try too hard, though.
Thanks again, Dan. The card turned out amazing.
