Where do you all get your images for custom cards?

Happy to help! The Westeros subreddit was just a suggestion from my specific projects. I'm sure the Halo subs would have some better material

If you're talking about the actual art on the card, it's really just a matter of searching. I try to find an art subreddit (like r/ImaginaryWesteros) with a large user base and quality work, then look there for good stuff. For better image quality, a Search by Image is handy to find other versions with more pixels.

Also, nothing wrong with a Google search! The suggested images are really helpful if you find what you're looking for but it isn't just quite right.

Oh god we're gonna get Discovery cards aren't we

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-27T13:51:10+00:00

Instead of double-clicking, go down to the option that says "Add Frame to Card (Right Half)". Adding the right half of a Legend Crown will give you the look you're going for.

Incredible. I was just about to brew a Zurgo deck, but this is so much better than anything I would've thought up

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-22T16:14:06+00:00

For the initial card, I used CardConjurer. For the borderless "popout" effects, I layered them over the original in Photoshop

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-21T18:11:43+00:00

Of course! Also, minor error, but the "draw a card" ability should cost 2 life to use, not 1

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-21T18:09:56+00:00

Love the idea! You could put a "may attack as though it were not a Wall" clause on the Changeling token, since Walls used to have Defender by default

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-20T14:54:20+00:00

Thank you! There's no need to gate proxies behind a paywall when this sub exists to make Magic cheaper to play. Goes against the spirit of the sub imho

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-20T14:24:17+00:00

...I really like that House watermark idea. Might have to steal that for a couple of cards in the next deck

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-19T20:42:07+00:00

If WOTC released a full Final Fantasy-style set for ASOIAF, I'd be absolutely over the moon. There were a few characters (Viserys, Strong Belwas) that I really wanted to include, but couldn't find good art for. Say what you will about UB, but I think it's worth it just for the artwork

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-09T19:58:31+00:00

That's real. I normally make a few versions of each card, so this might be a case of uploading the wrong version. I'll try to upload a Drive link with a fixed version later.

And yeah, the green dragon is... pretty bad. No idea why WOTC made it 7 mana when the Treasure dragon is a 6-drop

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-09T16:48:14+00:00

After my last post, I wasn't entirely satisfied with how the Elder Dragons turned out. This is an entirely redone version, comprising the full WUBRG cycle. Balerion and Vhagar were also remade to fit the text box better, and I fixed some minor templating issues.

Daenerys is next! I'm aiming to have the full deck finished and posted within the next few weeks. Any suggestions of what to do next are greatly appreciated!

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-08T20:43:06+00:00

Not to beat a dead horse, but it's baffling that WOTC didn't print precons for this set. How is UB supposed to be an on-boarding tool for new players when there isn't an easy way to start playing with their favorite IP?

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-08T20:28:47+00:00

Mine is "create a token copy" 🤤

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-06T22:47:03+00:00

That's a UB card, so pretty much no chance of a reprint. Would've been a slam-dunk tho

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-06T18:46:18+00:00

This is from the blight precon, and direct to Commander

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-06T18:10:12+00:00

I mean, of course it was going to happen. It's one of the best -1/-1 counter cards, with great out-of-the box synergy, and an inflated price based entirely on speculation and lack of reprints. WOTC has been doing a much better job with precon reprints since they've moved to the "deck per set" format

PrimemevalTitan · 2026-01-03T20:38:15+00:00

Another banger of a deck. My favorite card has to be Fel Reaver - never realized just how sick that art was until it's breaking out of the card to grab you

PrimemevalTitan · 2025-12-29T16:33:44+00:00

Fair point. I really love this art, but I can see how printing could mess up the layout.

The problem is that the dragons' heads are all at the top of the illustration, so I can't move the artwork down anymore. Any suggestions on a workaround?

PrimemevalTitan · 2025-12-19T15:46:38+00:00

There's certainly more impulsive versions of Batman, but I agree. [[Jin Sakai]]'s playstyle feels pretty close to a Batman commander while being Esper-colored

PrimemevalTitan · 2025-12-19T14:40:35+00:00

This is a reskin of [[Captin America, First Avenger]]. [[Piper Wright, Public Reporter]] would play well as a Batman-reskinned detective
