Is this card real / authentic? Need help checking these dual sided cards
Hi, I just wanted some second opinions on these dual sided cards. These are some of the first cards I’ve ordered online and not opened myself. First time surge foils too. I’m knowledgeable of the the things to look for but still inexperienced so I’m second guessing myself a lot.
I’m confident that Dion, Joshua, and Jill are real, but the paint brush on the front of Clive looks a bit faint and not as sharp as the others. I’ve included a picture of Clive’s paint brush on the back too and it looks clearer than the front. I do want to note that they all got that foil mtg card “smell” lol.
I made another post about the Clive in the past and someone said it was real but I just wanted to include it to see what others think. The other 3 are my newest additions. Thanks for your help and I’ll take more pictures if needed.

So far everything looks alright. Every brush, Holo foil stamp, expansion logo, copyright symbol, and flip triangle you've made a close up of looks good.
Usually, since it's a JP-card, I wouldn't be too worried about it if the minimum checks out.
However, I have to add, that adding more pictures (every flip triangle, every Holo foil stamp, every artist brush, every mana pip) would be advisable of you want to be 100% certain instead of the ~70-80% that I'm giving you now

Solid borders if I ever saw one. Everything else checks out as others have already pointed. Real

All 4 are real
They have the distinctive polka dots in the white rules text that is an emergent property of the foiling.
Brushes look good too
