Just wondering if anyone here would be interested in cards with altered art? My fiance is getting into altered art cards, and the few he's made are really beautiful. Unfortunately, his scanner doesn't do it justice.

You have to be carefull about printing cards. It's kind of illegal. If wizards catch you they will probably sue for dammages and copyright infringement :/ _________________ All those who are about to die. I salute you!
Oh, they're not printed. They're actual, genuine, real life MTG cards that have been altered by painting with acrylic; they're all done by hand and not printed, and card alteration for aesthetic purposes is not considered copyright infringement.
There are a few rules regarding altered cards - ie that the cards thickness/weight/etc are not noticably altered, that the altered art doesn't make the card deceiving etc, and some alterations may not be legal for tournament use if they significantly cover the rules etc.
