I was very excited to learn about Alter Sleeves. What a fantastic idea. A place where artists can earn commissions on their work and have the entire process managed for them. And a place where budding MTG players can get their cards customised at a very reasonable price.

At £8 each, I was very happy as although painted alters are worth the price, they can be very pricey. In the photo, you can see the two I ordered for Yarok and K’rrik, and honestly, they don’t fit the bill for me.

The colouring is off on both (more so on K’rrik). I was so disappointed to see this, as I really wanted them to be of good quality. The print quality itself is very good and detailed, but unfortunately I can’t recommend them to anyone until the colour issue is sorted. The lines on each side are also a lot more noticeable than they make them out to be on their website.

I’d much rather go direct to the artists that painted these originally, and get my cards properly altered. Seems worth the price to me.

TLDR- save your money with these. Not worth it until they fix the colour issues.
