I like them but on the Mewtwo I see the font looks right but doesn't blend in like the real card's Maybe work on that.
That's an issue with Photoshop's stroke rendering, it's too rounded and kind of fuzzy. I have a better method using GIMP, but I forgot to save it with layers. If I made it again, I'd have to build it again from scratch, including the texture/foil, which would take too long.
Ah, these are all sooo PRETTAY. I think I follow you on deviantART already. c: But I have a question; do you actually print these? And if so, does the quality and feel of the paper and such you print them on actually imitate standard Pokemon cards? I'm curious. I might become involved in some creation of this fake card art if that's the case. (P.S. I still love those dang ice-cream cats<3)
Thanks!
Sorry for the late reply. I've printed a good chunk of my cards, but none of my recent ones (due to lack of ink and money). But no, they don't feel/look quite the same as real cards. I try to make most of them holo, which, with my method, makes them a bit too glossy/plasticy (like they're laminated). For non-holos, I've used card stock and photo paper in the past, but the card stock is a little too dull and the ink has a weird shine to it on photo paper. I once used someone else's printer (that used toner instead of ink) to print on some kind of semi-treated card stock and it turned out pretty similar to official cards (darker areas of toner reflect more light than the real cards, but still better than the other things I've tried).
Glad you like my ice cream cats! :D

UPDATE: I haven't been faking a lot lately. Anyway, here's a card that I've been planning to make for quite a while, ever since hatching a Shiny Meowth on Black 2 over a year ago. I hope to make an Alex's Shining Persian card as well eventually.
Non-Shiny/Gym TCG GB-style:
I actually based the sprite on a version of the card before the one above, but I changed the actual card because the older artwork was lineless and looked weird for a Shining Pokémon and the right eye was too deformed. Here's a link to the original:
