I know there are a lot of altered art fans in the Ohio area, and GPColumbus is this weekend. Is anyone going to be there? It is always fun meeting people from this thread in person.
I've quit to my pencils lastly, due to a sort of personal stuff (moving to another city, job searching, etc.) I did this to tune my skills up:I'll try to get a pic under natural light tomorrow.
This is probably one of my favorite alters of all time. Colors, composition, execution, likeness of your other one like that (whic has inspired me to paint my own space-ish cards). Very awesome.... Like you've never heard any of that before.
This is awesome! Are you altering the other ones as well? I planned on doing the same thing with Basalt Monolith. Never got the time though.
Probably not. The guy I am doing these for might be convinced though I like the new art on all of them but Volcanic and Tropical Islands and the art looks good with those old chunky text boxes.
Some selected samples from a large anime commission, I really think he chose some interesting source images for a lot of these (like the black/white one). I found the challenge of contrasting styles to be really fun to paint!
First time here and my first attempt at a card alter. Used a Plains card a friend gave to me so I could practice without worrying about messing something nice up.
Those rk post alters are awesome. It's cool that he is able to do that off-the-cuff, especially the Thornling, which isn't even his art. Also, it is legit content, as opposed to some other artist-altered stuff I have seen (like Swanland: cool, but not content).

More on the way, stuff getting mailed, enjoy.

Source is the Doomsday Clock from The Watchmen graphic novel.
And here's a re-do of my original Kaalia alter from the oversized foil.

Had to go back and look as my eyes had trouble dropping down to the text box at first. (and second look, and third...)

Also asked for him to alter Thornling, since he made both Morphling and Torchling.
I also got a Ruhan and a foil Thraximundar altered by Swanland, but they are in borrowed EDH decks. I'll post them as soon as I get them back.
