Was working on some alter ideas and this one popped up out of nowhere:
And an extension that goes to the Untapped cast Episode 1 contest winner.
I like the sword, except that it seems to be blue and green, like a sword of Body and Mind, not green and black, like Feast and Famine. Is that what the colors are, or just how it looks?
I decided to open some of them packs, and I think I'm going to just open them all. I don't think they are random however, because so far I've opened 100 packs, and I now have 6 tezzeret's, one of which is foil, and 11 Darksteel Collossus. I only opened one contested warzone. That's fantastic for me, because aren't tezzeret's the most expensive card in the set? Also, aren't orange mythic rare cards more rare to find then regular rare cards? I mean, I opened 13 black sun's zenith, and only two white sun's zenith.
Also, one of you said I can sell stuff on this site? Is there a fee associated with selling here? Do need a certain number of posts? Do people even buy cards off of this site? I would love to avoid ebay since they take 10-15% of your sales in fees.
Thanks again everyone, I really appreciate the responses. I am going to open the rest of the packs, so I will not sell them to anyone.
Go to the Market street forum called sales lots, and post your cards there.
wait.... whats that robot from? i remember watching that tv show when i was like five but for the life of me i've never been able to remember what it was called....
bye the way, i'm working on making a set of pirates of the caribean alters and am in need of ideas. this is what i have so far:
voltaic key - Davey jones key
expedition map - Navigational charts
Davey jones - Wrexial
Elizabeth swan - Capt' Sisay
Predator Flagship - Flying Dutchman
Skyship Weatherlight - Black Pearl
Squee goblin Nabob - Little Jack
originally i was going to try and do the entire thing replacing members of the weatherlight crew with the black pearls crew, but it didn't quite matchup
I collect Business Cards. Every store or business that I go into, I try to get a business card. It's pretty useful, because if someone says that they are going some where, and I have been there, i can tell some good places to go to, or bad places to not go to. They are also free, so I keep collect MtG.
I can use pretty much anything, but ravnica lands are really awful, they take forever.
The best tip i can give you is to buy some Magic Erasers. Theyre cleaning sponges with the picture of Mr. Clean on them. They have them in generic too. Theyre slightly abrasive but wont scratch the foil. They also tear easily, so you can get small sized chunks to work with. Using them with acetone based fingernail polish remover blows the ink off quickly. I tape the card down with scotch or packing tape to prevent the borders from getting removed, and then i just go to town.
Yeah I use painter's tape for the borders. Have you tried using just straight acetone? It's what i use, I'm just wondering if there is a difference between it and the nail polish remover. I would be careful with the scotch tape, the acetone can melt it onto the card.
Just my bant lands =) The others arent with me, but you get the gist.
LOL, i deleted my original post because of the ordering (the island looks kinda crappy, i didnt want it in the first slot). You did a great job on yours though, did you use tape to cut off the land symbols? I was gonna, but it seemed like to much work.
No I just went really slowly and carefully with a q-tip.
Now a question for you: What set lands did you use? I couldn't erase anything that had been printed prior to shadowmoor, they were just way too much work, while scars and m11 came off in only a few minutes per card, including the time it took to do the symbols.
He has a pretty one of a kind ability, which can be pretty powerful.
Regarding Iwamori:
I realize that his ability can be a huge drawback, but that is what makes him fun to play. I realize that it is not the greatest argument, but this is just a silly, fun, not-so-serious project, so I don't see anything wrong with including a risky card like him.
How about adding in some iconic Green cards, like Rancor, Tarmogoyf, Fastbond, Llanowar Elves, Giant Growth, etc.

I think Ghost Ship would be better as the black pearl. Also, mystic compass as Jack's compass. And ramirez dePietro as Jack.
Brainstorm
counterspell
dark ritual
gush
depletion lands

Seems pretty good to me.

Not on the high end scale, but I think they are pretty unique, and I like them.
EDIT: Holy crap, literally 1 minute after me, lol, guess they aren't unique.

A lot of weird effects come in red and blue as you can see.

I like his chance ability, especially in this cube!
