Curious everyones thoughts

Bought on ebay. I can't tell if its in my head that it feels flimsy or not. Looks the same thickness as my other cards.

You don't give us much to work with but those brushes look pretty bad

This will probably turn out to be fake, confirm with better pictures of the brushes, holo, flip arrows, mana cost, and set symbol

[u/Xaphnir]

I have an idea, but I want to see a closer picture of the paintbrush (that symbol to the left of the artist's name in the bottom left corner) before I say anything.

Ok, that's as I thought, the paintbrush there looks pretty fake.

[u/GhostCheese → u/Totshy2]

Yeah that's no bueno

Try this test out. https://www.detecting-the-fakes.com/checking-details/light-test/

I've found this most reliable for spotting double sided fakes

Also are you in the uk by any chance?

[u/Totshy2 → u/Cal_Macc]

I’m in the U.S. The light doesn’t seem to pass through as mulch as some of my pack pulled ones. I’m pretty sure it’s fake at this point

You aren’t providing any of the key pictures up close. How can you expect anyone to verify? Read the sidebar.

I wasn't sure how to do the logo or green dot since this card is dual sided

[u/ImSorryImNewHere → u/Totshy2]

Close up and clear of each flip symbol as well as the paintbrush and the foil stamp

[u/Sayne7]

Brushes don't look good, leaning fake but need closer pics of the flip triangle and the holo-stamp

[u/mrjojoyo]

Fake. you can tell from the wrong copyright symbol and the brush right away.

[u/Boring_Aerie920]

Yea don’t buy from eBay the sellers are not reputable and can do whatever they want

[u/bawsofsteel]

Fake card - the paintbrushes are 100% not real
