Pokémon: Lodestone

[Toadsworth]

Wow these are certainly cool. I love that Ferilagtr

 

[Lordpenguin]

Thanks.

I noticed i hadn't made any fighting types (& ground, rock etc.) so I make a nice Larvitar card. Handy. I fiddled wih the levels of this classic sugimori larvitar, o give it slighty darker tone and those piercing white eyes...

 

[Blennix]

Teh Larvitar card seems a bit overpowered. With the 3 attacks. Just have Landslide and make it cost 2 fighting energies and maybe 20 damage. :)

 

[Lordpenguin]

Meh, I feel that I am making to many with only one attack. 3 attacks? Typo ne.
Anyway, 2 weaknesses helps balance it, and Mudslip has a deliberately obscure mana cost.

And Pupitar is gonna have only one attack, tackle ¦D

 

[Blennix]

Weakness doesn't really balance anything out i don't think. Tackle for Pupitar, surely to can think of a kool attack :D

 

[Lordpenguin]

Cool power, wait and see....

 

[Jaimes]

Hi these fakes are very good! Particularly the D versions of Houndoom/dour (which are utterly utterly broken however). Id suggest using Photoshop or Paintshop Pro to blur down the pixelised edges.

Keep up teh cool work.

 

[Lordpenguin]

Would be nice if could afford them! Looking into getting a cheap PS soon though...

In the absence of PC, I got a new laptop, so it might take a while to transfer all my tools. Before that however, two new cards: Sabrina's Natu and Pupitar.
This is the second Natu card in this set, as, well, I wanted to do a xatu, obviously, but Imakuni doesn't really feel like he has one. Also, this means that Natu in general in this set are more common than uncommon, but less common than commons.

Personally I wanted to make sabrina's natu powerful, relative to the rest of the cards, rather like the status of base set scyther or electabuzz.

 

[Lordpenguin]

Anyone want some Sabrina's Xatu?

 

[Blennix]

AHHHHH! my eyes, the art effect on Xatu hurt my eyes.

 

[Lordpenguin]

¦D I played around with the zoom blur settings for ages, to get it just right

a slightly meh Tyranitar

There is also a PRERELEASE edition with different arts, but it is awfully hard to get hold of.

 

[Lordpenguin]

Aside from the slightly poor text alignment and (i think) slightly odd-looking pp fonts, i really quite like this card. It is nice and full.

All of these, and all previous cards, are up on the website

 

[Blennix]

W00t, Tyranitar cards sohould always look that kool, like yours.

 

[NeoRyder]

The dark crobat art is cool, and the pokemon power is very interesting.

This is a greaat set dude;)

 

[Lordpenguin]

The first set of deltas. Note I decided against the ugly delta symbol over the art, instead going for just a small symbol next to the type symbol. This set won't have mechanics based on delta, so it's sort of just a sidenote that these cards aren't of the normal kind for that pokemon.

Also check out the flavour text, first hints as to the 'storyline' of the set here.

 

[Flame Claw]

Cool, but I think there shuld be the delta species border.

 

[Lordpenguin]

I tried it, but it just looked odd on a classic blank, and messed up the positioning.

 

[The S]

These are awesome. I never thought I'd see the old-type templates again!

 

[Lordpenguin]

Hehe, thanks. One of the main reasons I prefer to fake with these is that I actually don't own anything newer than around aquapolis, and I compare my renders angainst real cards to get the alignments right and whatnot.

Anyway, my first trainer fake. I'm slightly off with the text I think, post your comments.
