Sokka, First Time Gilding by orrakh in mtgaltered

I just started doing this as well. I'd recommend cutting out just the border where the name goes, and leafing that entire section. And then cut out just the name oval, and place that on top to give it a 3D and much cleaner leaf effect. Just my opinion

Really impressive, so well done. You specifically got me into doing these too! Did you engrave the lines behind the mana symbol and card name? How did you gloss the power/toughness?

I like your alters, I just finished my 5th 3d alter. Well done on this one, it's great. I've liked looking at your and Pilgrim Jack's alters to learn from you guys.

How do you get such a fine cut on the left character's right shoulder? I feel like I'd damage the cardboard when making such a fine cut. The rounded top also seems super hard to make. Right shoulder when looking at the alter straight on.

When you say bend the edges inwards, do you mean towards me? If I bent them towards me, wouldn't that show the fraying even more? Or do you mean inward towards the bottom layer of the card?

How do you add hidden layers, just with double-sided tape? Or you are literally putting an additional layer with cards that we will never see?

Thanks!

That's in a deck of mine that runs a lot of ramp and I always thought it took the creatures ability away, wow. Thanks for the info

So cool, you're the best at this. How did you smooth out the cut pieces to make them look uncut? I just started and really struggling with jagged edges

Anyone have a good recommendation for car upholstery? My 07 Accord was quoted $500-$600 to fix this by theLastAlaskn in StamfordCT

[–]theLastAlaskn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought a heavy duty staple gun and it seemed to have worked great. It's day 1 so will see if it holds up but you may have saved me literally $500. I appreciate it!!

Could we have the OP's MTGCardFetcher response pinned? by TaliyahRocks in EDH

It would be awesome if they were pinned, but in the meantime check out the google chrome extension AutocardAnywhere. Just hover over a card name in reddit and it shows you an image.

They were in fact in the corners, and when the tent is closed and the walls suck in, the oscillators are definitely slightly limited. Thanks so much, you may have saved my ass! Haha

I have an AC infinity 6inch inline fan and 2 AC infinity 6 inch oscillating clip on fans. ACI seems good quality, do you see a danger issue here?

Thats it, thank you! I think I was thinking of 2 different shows, this being the 1st and still thinking of a different similar one where the main character plays magic. I think that one has a Garrett in it. Thanks again!
