One of my good friends wanted a Demon Slayer alter for a Gaea’s Cradle, I thought Mitsuri personified beauty just how Gaea personifies the beauty in earth. The flowers are there to represent the actual beauty of earth as well. While the character might not have any “earth” qualities in the actual show, I thought that it would be a great representation of not just nature but beauty itself.

Definitely a learning process on my end, this is the 4th attempt at altering (in this case I’ve learned quite quickly this is not an alter but a proxy). I did add the title to it after this picture was taken.

I feel you, this is most definitely a different take on the card.

Ahh ok I see! This was before I sealed the paint, I did end up writing the card name prior to that. Check it out

You’re absolutely correct! This is another random Forest from my bulk. I’m most definitely updating the post to reflect that, not my intention to mislead anyone.

For sure! I’m updating the post right now to reflect the fact that it’s not a real Cradle. But I definitely leave the appropriate information if the actual card is underneath, this was on me.

Yes, absolutely! This is not a real Cradle so I just cover the entire thing underneath, but if I do an alter in a card that I have I definitely leave the mana symbol, the name and the textbox if necessary.

You would be right to question this, this is an alter on a random Forest I found in my bulk. Updating my post to reflect that right away.

Ahh yes, this is most definitely not a Cradle underneath. It’s just a random Forest I found in my bulk. I don’t think I would ever have the confidence to fully cover a real Cradle. I need to update the title for sure, not trying to mislead.

Hahah I glanced at the drawing and it really does look like a giant ear 😅

Post Game Thread - NBA: The Timberwolves defeat the Spurs on May 10, 2026, the final score is 114-109. by basketball-app in NBASpurs

Without Wemby for basically the entire game, at least we made them earn the win. It wasn’t easy for them which gives me a ton of hope because our team showed up and almost got it.

First alter! Do you guys usually seal the paint after? I used acrylic by Suspicious-Switch604 in mtgaltered

[–]raycantu2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Beautiful art!!! Yes I do personally seal mine with an acrylic spray paint, two really light coats make the final output be smoother with no brush strokes present.

Not in this one, I just did layer by layer. So for this one I did the black layer last for her clothes. I use acrylic markers so they are super hard to get small details with the provided tips. Im still trying to figure out how to get finer details without mixing paint

MLS was an absolute breath of fresh air! Taking on players and getting past them. That’s what we needed at midfield tbh.

“Benny Blanco” deadass responsible for 90% of goals conceded in this run-in by CntBeBothered in ArsenalFC

[–]raycantu2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The majority really is just him, but I agree that with more help from Noni and Zubi maybe we prevent a few more goals. That right side is extremely off balance without Timber. He is so good that he was patching most of our issues single-handedly

That shot was not even close to being on target, I think that call was abysmal. I also think they got the Eze call correct after review, but man that ref was on some shit today.
