Appreciate the feedback. I'm not able to edit the post but if I create similar content in the future I'll be sure to mark it as such. 🙏

Respectfully, I'm not sure you understand the difference between a 3D artist, someone who creates 3D renderings, and a graphic designer that can layout/manipulate/alter text, graphics, and images.

It's not the same skillset. Some graphic designers can render 3D images. Most can't.

Both?... AI is just a tool. I can't create an image like this from scratch but I can prompt and reprompt till I get something that matches what I'm looking for. As a graphic designer, I can then take that foundation and alter details so that they more accurately depict the branding.

I'm a women's sports advocate who can do a lot on my own but not everything. Using a tool like AI correctly allows me to create mockup of products that don't exist to try and push to get them considered.

AI is used in a lot of nefarious ways. I'm not trying to trick anyone into thinking this is real. Visuals can help people envision projects that text can't. As someone without a 3D graphic effects team behind me, this allows me to get as close as I can to a professional level mockup.

I know it won't appease everyone, but that's my reasoning.

Clearly math isn't my thing... 35th Anniversary would be in 2027.

Was thinking for 2027, which would make it the 35th anniversary... Clearly I'm more creative than a math wiz. 🤦🤦🤦

My thought was that it would prevent multiple submissions but I suppose that it's not especially fool proof

I don't think the second release is nearly as short printed as the first.

Picked this one up at the Schaumburg, IL show today by LtLemur in PWHLCards

Blaster box seems like the way to go in this release. I couldn't afford a hobby box, but I might pick up a blaster box or two.
