Sometimes I paint a group of alters themed after something specific.The first group I painted this way with original fan art was these 5 cards themed after the Legend of Zelda games.

A Stoneforge Mystic with princess Zelda and the Master Sword as they appear in the The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

For this I painted Agahnim and Zelda as they appear in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.

For this Plains card I painted Zelda from the latest game, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.

The next two are based on screenshots from  A Link to the Past.

 And this Swamp has Midna from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

These cards are also related with the Zelda games but they were painted before and after the previous group with various Link fan art.

These two cards are an attempt to make some nouveau themed alters with original art not based straightly on existing Alphonse Mucha's paintings.

 The first one is a Jhoira of the Ghitu:

The sketch I made on paper before I work on the card.

The other one is a second try on a Jace I've done before, here it is:

 And the first sketch I based it on:

  Two cards I have made, inspired by classic horror literature, both in total black and white.

  The first is a Dark Ritual, created for an altered art contest, with some Cthulhu fan art.Some of the details are not even from H.P. Lovecraft's work: the book (De Vermis Mysteriis) is from Robert Bloch's Cthulhu mythos works (who also wrote Psycho) and the flavor text is  actually from a Cthulhu related internet meme!

Also this is the testing sketch for the card.

The next on is fan art based on Edgar Allan Poe's classic, the Black Cat. I like the fact that the flavor text coincidentally (?) matches Poe's story.

 This is the sketch I made on paper before I paint the card.

Olivia Voldaren fan art.

The testing sketch.

A Chandra the Firebrand Manga style fan art.

The original sketch.

This is my first attempt that I finally rejected.

 The 200th alter I ever did, a Ral Zarek.

Also, two other extended art alters I did lately.

A double sided alter on a Delver of Secrets/Incectile Abberation.

The sketches I made before I paint the card.

An anime-manga alter with fan art of Ichigo from Bleach on a Tibalt.

And the original sketch I made for the card:

A female version of Rune-Scarred Demon.

 And the testing sketch I made on paper.

A Manga style female version of Mad Max on a foil Plains.

 The base sketch before I paint it on the card...

...that was based on this classic still from the movie (I think it's from Mad Max 2).
