I'm scouring auction sites for alters but most of them are horrible.. I did come around some interesting ones like a Steampunk trinket mage... however, the text box was completely covered, only the top box with name and CC remaining. Do you guys like those types of alters? Edit: Apparently 2 people are selling the same card... probably prints made to look like alters... so I guess commission is pretty much the best way to get quality alters then?

If your in europe there's MKM, that have a large gallery of altered art cards. Else there's the auction site of your choice - but the competition is fierce.
While I still don't have any plans to foil out my whole cube (or anything close) I have found my self running out of things to trade for. So now I am thinking I will target a few of the cheapest foils that look particularly good. Anyone have any recommendations on foil cards that don't break the bank but look particularly outstanding? Maybe under 5$?
I also what a few alters in my cube, just to complete the 'little bit of every part of magic' feel I am going for. Any suggestions on affordable ways to achieve that or really great cards to alter? I was thinking of putting Murder's art on the hideous Hero's Downfall...
I think Timeshifted foils look amazing, and most of 'em are cheap. I'd look through that list, see what you cube, and check out what's under $5.
And ya, I'd prioritize altered art for cards that aren't available in foil or have hideous art. Hero's Downfall definitely falls in the latter category.
62 Beta cards from my 93/94 Cube (62/121 A/B/U Cards) + some other sweet high dollar cards. Goal is to finish all UNL to B upgrades in the next year or so.

Another by Poxy14 ...one of my favorite comic moments of all time:
Whoa, that's a billion times cooler than the regular art. I could see a sick play set of these with different heros. Maybe a broken batman mask or something?
Anyways, which comic/ series is this from? I wouldn't mind checking it out.

It's probably not actually getting used with Theros coming out shortly. I do prefer FBB German to most promos though.

@ Sasky: Wow nice haul on Pre Re weekend! I LOVE the Elspeth, its art really pops in foil, and the art is already very beautiful IMO.
