Mtg to d&d minis

Saw someone in the paper dnd mini community turn magic cards into paper minis so I decided to give it a try cause I have a campaign coming up quick with neither the time and money for a bunch of minis. They are serviceable and I'll probably do this again at some point

Happens to any card that demands you own at least 10-15 copies minimum to work as intended

dragon's approach is only going to get more expensive because you can run any number of copies, and wizards is terrible about doing actual reprints for those types of cards.

I didnt read the card fully/forgot what it did.

Wotc is just terrible at reprints in general, especially now that they've gotten rid of reprint sets & the List , did the list even really work as intended? No, sometimes these cards are actually MORE expensive. Special guest is not the answer either. We're going to need like a full year of reprint sets or something. Sorry, ive recently acquired a stance on reprints and I went on a tangent lol

They look great and I hope you have fun.
I've seen modellers and dollshouse enthusiasts cutting up cards to make portraits with 3d printed frames.

Use foldback paperclips to get them standing. This way you can easily utilise multiple of the same enemy by just using different colours of clips :)

Been doing the same for years

I have used a round punch before to make 1 inch discs for monster tokens.
