Card Alters
-
My favorite part of GenCon and other conventions/big events is meeting the artists and getting my expensive cards "ruined".
The goal is to have every card in my vintage deck altered/signed.
Here is are some of my favorites!

What is that supposed to be on your tropical islands?

Gotta love Griselbrand just chilling and holding hands in the Druid circle. I like it!

That's Jespers signature (and the year). He usually signs them small, but his signature was so unique, I asked him to do it across the entire text box.
This is typically how he signs them:

Extremely cool.

Thanks!! That was actually done by one of my friends. They did such a great job on them!
-
@xxhazardxx ah wow I didn't know - thanks for the info!

Hate that Jesper adds the date to his sig. On the plus side, now I can have a stack of different sigs on my Jesper cards.

I am pretty big on collecting alters myself. I actually unloaded ~87 in a very large trade a couple days ago for some Catacombs, Foil Thoughtseize LOR, and a Judge Hierarch. I have tons of 1-offs and randoms, but i am also very, very close to finishing one of my EDH decks.
Do people care to see this sort of thing from me if they are not vintage cards? If so, should i be posting here or a new thread? Don't want to hijack, wasn't sure if it was an open invitation.

@sovarius I mean, I love alters, So I'm cool if this thread diverges into all things alters...
I just wanted to show off some of my pretty/ruined stuff.

Sorry my pictures are crap-tier quality
Mimeoplasm foil peel with The Great Aurora and Golgari Rot-Farm as the background. Favorite EDH
Everything i haven't yet foiled in my Mimeoplasm deck is altered, with only a couple exceptions
Set of duals to a completely altered 5c reanimator deck. Everything is horror and halloween themed and the deck tells a story with all the cards essentially a panel of the story
The lord of the dark forest
This happened in a game last night against my girlfriend. Marchesa the Black Rose, with Olivia Mobilized for War (notice they are altered together as a panoramic pair since their abilities are great together) and a Mulldrifter that allows me to stonewall attackers for free with a smooth +2 cards per turn.I don't have everything in my altered deck pictured, but here is an album with about 2 dozen of them. The little girl is my daughter, the deck is about how her brother is taken to a far away land through a portal (Sol Ring) and she goes off on an adventure to find him. The portal takes her to a dark forest, where she is at first attacked by the monsters there but later befriends them, and the lord of the forest, Reaper King.
The Coffin Queen is my girlfriend (daughter's mother)

@sovarius love that soul of the harvest! Very cool art on all of these. I like the theme and how you've had the cards done!
-
@poxeveryturn He's one of the best for sure, i love pumpkins. There's a bunch of little pumpkins all over the deck, he is their caretaker
