Col's Fakes

[Col~]

Some Pokemon fakes I made in Adobe Fireworks. It works really well.
Anyways, here they are:

Shieldon

Bulbasaur

Shining Haunter (made w/ the idea of Pokemon E-Card Shining Pokemon)

Yet Another Upgrade (credit for image goes to Fangking Omega because this Pokemon came from Pokemon Acanthite and to Cascade Gonpory for the actual image. Great job, guys!)

Crystal Center Pokemon Camp (a place from my hack, Pokemon Gamma Project)

If you have any ideas for cards I should make, reply to this post, or PM me with the details.

Enjoy.

Well, you are right, these aren't the most well-populated boards, and people aren't motivated to comment on what are fairly average fakes: Take bulbasaur, for instance (I know where I am with classic card face, its the one I use). The fonts are wrong, as are most of them throughout your cards. Pretty much everyone who posts here uses the wrong font, and it is getting tiring to be consistently saying go and find the tutorials and guides, when that really is the best advice. Secondly, the HP is the wrong colour, the artist credit isn't included, neither is the Pokemon info (height, weight). The rarity symbol is absent. The energy symbols for the attacks are two small, as are the damage numbers. The placement of the attacks is too random: they should be aligned in the middle of the secton between the line and the edge of the text box, not sort of floating in the middle.

I only do classic templates, and are thus not qulaified to comment on the rest, but just casually I can see that none of the fonts are correct. These aren't poor fakes though; people post much worse examples than these, but you can see why not everyone jumps in to comment: your mistakes are pretty much exactly the same as most other amateurs who post here.

Don't be disheartened though: practice makes perfect. See if you can have a surf through the history here and find some of cascade's fakes, or shadow_bind's, and learn from them. If you are interested in faking more classic cards, my sig _should_ have a link to a collection I made. The earlier ones in it aren't the best, but have a look at the later ones.

They're pretty good. Not amazing, but good.
There is one amazing one though. The upgrade is awesome. x_x

No need to start flaming. I was merely pointing out that if no-one wants to post, there probably are reasons, and bumping like you did makes it look like you expect people to comment, which they are perfectly free not to. If you don't want constructive criticism, don't post them in the first place.

 

[Col~]

Four things: 1. I was never flaming, and 2. I never expected people to comment, and 3. Just to let you know, it was a couple years ago that I made these, so I wasn't quite sure how, and 4. Your "constructive criticism" as you call it, was just pointing out my flaws and telling me I should do better next time, instead of saying a couple obvious flaws, and telling me I COULD do better next time.
