Acrylic is the only way to go IMO. if you want pointers, there is a whole forum about this on mtgsalvation, and some of the guys there are very, very good at it. http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthread.php?t=93474&page=1391 __________________

Its tough to incorporate your own design onto a card, as your paint choice, while not having to match anything exactly, does have to match the 'environment' or 'feel' of the card. Most of the time, paints on top of a printed card like that tend to be too vibrant, regardless of how dull the paint, and how colorful the original work. That said, if you extend colors that are already on the card, the matching is simple, and the extension looks pretty spiffy.A couple of mine: Wheel of Fortune Mindslaver __________________
