Ick, gold ink. Dig the Korean 4th ed basics. Are you not a fan of those Plains from 4th edition?Quote:

@BoP - That is the prettiest. 7th foils look so good.

I prefer the Tempest ones, which are also signed unlike my 4th edition plains.Quote:

Hopefully I can stay true to that. Apologies for dirty sleeves. Also, I don't care enough about pimping this deck to spend money on pimping its singleton Forest. Though, I might go and find a Euro or APAC forest (leaning towards the one with the Torii in the trees.

[Insert post shitting on the WB duals in the pimp thread here]
Revised duals? In my Pimp Legacy Decks thread? REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
:laugh: like I said, I don't care a lot about pimping this deck.
Then you are, pretty clearly, in the wrong place....Quote:

I don't have AB like you; all my MTG pimp money is in my Miracles deck :frown:Quote:

And i can understand decks with some missing (and not pimped) cards, im missing some too for many reasons, from price (i wont pay 2k for 4 tops for example) to availability, but i dont see the point in posting cards you know are not pimped and you dont actually want to pimp at all in the first place.
Finally done (more or less) after forever.
Now to save up for a better camera.

You know what? I`m positive to anything that can tilt the pics-to-shitpost-ratio in a positive direction. It`s been too little show and tell and too much bitch and whine here lately imho.Quote:

I want to replace the Sword of Light and Shadow with the modern masters version so the styles match (more important to me than having original set seeing as I sometimes play War and Peace/Feast and Famine).
Nice looking deck!
That Bayou has to feel pretty left out, though. Frenchies are known for their poor english after all! ;)
I don't understand why you'd want MM over Judge foils, however, seeing as you already have judge StP, Judge Wasteland, Judge lands and Judge Noble.
Thank you! Yah the Bayou is kinda awk, but w/e.Quote:

I can understand that assessment, I just think the brown border is looking outstanding. I know I'd snapplay old-bordered tops, for instance.Quote:

Old border foil similar to Judge Reward Crucible of Worlds would be amazing.Quote:

See above ^Quote:

Here's Klug's closest version of a AB-style alter but it's not a modern –> AB border. I want you to take notice of the extension of the existing old-border and its blue waves into areas of the card that did not originally have it.

Here's an UNL Volc that Klug altered to look like Alpha since it's the only example of him doing the black border that I can find.

Here's an UNL Lotus that he made textless. I want to highlight the granulation in the text box since it's the only example of such an emulation that he's done (so far).

Disclaimer: I'm not detracting from any of these artists' skills/talents. I'm just presenting the evidence and drawing a conclusion (that is, Klug would be able to imitate whatever old WUBRGC border you wanted closest) based on that evidence.
Depending on how deep your pockets are, and how long you want to wait. Klug is amazing, but expensive and you wait a while.
But yeah, old borders. We all love them, yet Wizards hates us.
