Ash's Pikachu

[Mike2494]

I think it pops out to much now and i think the background should be like an ocean...

 

[icycatelf]

I was evaluating the Lv.X cards that I own and it seems the backgrounds are usually complementary colors.

Some examples: Electivire Lv.X (yellow Pokemon, blue/indigo backround- yellow's complimentary color is violet, so close enough), Torterra Lv.X (mostly green Pokemon, red background- green's complimentary color is red).

My Mew* was mainly what made me do this because it's blue and it has an orange background, which makes it pop. I didn't think the Manaphy with the blue/ocean bacground popped enough, so I gave it an orange background. I think the blue would have worked better if it were just a normal Manaphy card. The orange background also works well with the border.

I like both of them and both of them are made so... everyone can be happy. ^_^



EDIT: My first Magic, the Gathering fake. I have no idea how to play.

UPDATE: A new fake (and illustration), Jirachi.

I hope you like it.

Wow I missed alot. Here we go.
Wartortole: 8.6/10 Good card, kind of pointless with one attack
Xyawon and Floroma: 10/10 My first ever 10 rating. Awesome cards, perfect artwork. Just great.
Manaphy: 8.2/10 Personally, I think the non-holo shiny is better.
The Dark Azmul: ?/10 Dunno, never played Magic the Gathering.
Jirachi: 8/10 My only advice is to watch the fonts and make the background more decorative. Great card, though.

 

[icycatelf]

I wanted to avoid giving Wartortle any attacks that required water energy because the water gif I had wasn't quite the right color and I didn't feel like recoloring it. I thought the one attack I gave it was good enough, anyway (would suck if opponet used Disable)- 2 colorless for 20, about normal for older cards, but then 40 damage after the first attack. It still would've been good to add another attack.

Yay! 10/10! Let's celebrate! I'm glad you like them.

Which Manaphy are you calling the shiny one? (Orange?)

You're clueless as well. XD

I thought I had the right fonts... I agree the background needs to be more decorative. Thanks.

I thought for sure I had already posted this, but I made some more cards...

Jirachi illustrated by me. Cascade's DP blank modified to be non-holo.
Unown B illustrated by me. Cascade's DP blank.
Shaymin artwork from the 11th movie. My DP-ish blank.

I have no secret. As I tell everyone, I use PowerPoint. =P

Here's something I don't recall ever seeing, an Ancient Pokemon fake. Here's Ancient Abra!

Made with my new Ancient Pokemon blank. Most I've ever worked on a blank.
^Not a PowerPoint fake...

I dont think ive ever seen an ancient style fake. It looks frikkin awesome!
The only thing I probably dislike is the markings in the illus bg dont really seem to match the rest of the card. Maybe because its blue XD

I remember the good ol' days where ppl would make the stupidest trades for an Ancient Mew (which is apparently crap, lol). Love it when nostalgia kicks in :P

I give Abra the ancient big-footed thingy card a 9/10

 

[icycatelf]

Thanks. I made the markings a little too dark; they're just as dark as the colorless symbol on the bottom.

I remember when people used to say Ancient Mew has infinite HP and did 1000 damage.

 

[Asteroth]

dear pokemon cards, i have aboyut 200 of them :)

 

[icycatelf]

New cards (neither illustrated by me).

Dialga illustrated by DA-hate (@DeviantArt).
Experimenting with my new "Crystal Attribute."
(I was too lazy to give it a weakness, resistance, & retreat cost.)

Celebration! illustrated by, I assume, Sumiyoshi Kizuki.
Just wanted to make a random Japanese card.


Also, does anyone want to attempt translating my earlier posted Ancient Abra?


EDIT: Dialga's Crystal Attribute inspired me to make a card w/ PokeRus.

Skitty illustrated by popsiclette (@DeviantArt).
(I didn't bother giving it a weakness, resistance, or retreat cost.)

 

[Burgers Rule]

Another great set of cards! I really like the Ancient Abra and Dialga! The Abra is quite creative! Though, i prefer English cards because I'm to lazy to translate...

 

[icycatelf]

Thanks. I agree that the Abra is cool, but it was difficult to make. LAZINESS = BAD

 

[icycatelf]

Forest Grovyle was interested in seeing what her Lucario pic would look like on a card, so I made one for her.

 

[Burgers Rule]

Hmm, very good! Cant really find anything wrong with it...
~9.6/10

 

[icycatelf]

Thanks again, BR.

*looks at your custom user title* Yes, you do look pretty. XD


Well, finally, here's another card illustrated by me.

The card idea itself wasn't mine... duh.
If the ball looks poor quality, that's because it's GIFified.

Let's try to customize the card idea...

 

[Lordpenguin]

Lovely art on the pokeball.

 

[icycatelf]

Thank you, Lordpenguin. I'm glad you like it.

Fixed PokeBall card. Also printed 2 versions.
http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb312/uhlone/PokeBall_cards.png (Cascade's DP Blanks)
For the jumbo card, I glued two sheets of cardstock together (one for the back & one for the front), but I was running low on cardstock so I printed the back of the card on the back of a picture I had already printed... a Mew card! Now if you (or me, since I have it) hold the jumbo PokeBall card up to a light, you can see the Mew card inside!

 

[icycatelf]

Well, here's a new card... SUNKERN IN YOUR POPCORN!!!

It's April Fools, so I figured a joke card would be suitable.
XD "4 / 1" is in the bottom right-hand corner of the card (April, 1).
