Hi there /tg/!
Excuse my lack of terminology, but what are these kind of foils called? (gif related)
And where do I find more of them? I want more of them but I don't know when they were first produced
Will try to find some more relevant gifs/pictures

Altered art/extended art alter.
They are fan made.
>>48321987
No, not that. I know that gif I posted is fan made due to the wings sticking out of the card, but I wasn't talking about that.
I'm talking about cards which aren't fully foiled, just some parts of it (like this gif I just made)
>>48322127
It's a foil peel, you have to do a special process
>>48322127
Depends on the foiling process.
Some cards use a literal foiling. Some have ink overlapping the shiny back.
The art itself varies. Before the printing process wizards will format what parts of the art or background will shine more than others.

To add. If you are wanting to make custom foil cards the best way is to buy standard legal foils (easiest) and tape the card along the boarders on a flat surface with masking tape.
Then use acetone to wipe off all the Ink.

In mtg there aren't many names for foil. If you look up Yugioh and Pokemon, there are many kinds of foils, reverse foils, ghost foils.
They call it Holofoil when the shine is on the card art, reverse holo is when the background(like the background on GIft of Orzhova)...

Pokemon has a really cool foil on some cards that have texture, as you can see on the pic, it has some etchings, which is really good to feel on the hand.

It seems like most JP card games put texture on the cards.
>>48322963
why do you buy standard foils? Why not bulk commons or somesuch? Is it something to do with the card material being different?
>>48323200
Foil cards are built like this:
>Background Paper
>Foil
>Printed plastic
You can either use acetone to remove the ink from the printed plastic, or pull the foil to have a complete blank card with background. Non foil cards doesn't have the foil sheet, and the print is on paper instead of plastic, so you can't remove the ink.

Okay, I looked that up and that's awesome.
Will probably try it.

Alright, so there's no MTG terminology for official >partly< foiled cards
I hope they will release more of these kind of foils though
So pretty to look at
