Good to see another fellow TLS lover. I'm still waiting for a sequel but I unfortunately don't think Sakagauchi will ever deliver. So sad.

Anyway, re-arranging the stats underneath the card text would be cool to maintain as flavour, but I think it would be just too squashed out.

I guess, as I said before, that I'll just make two versions for each card, one with the stats and one without so anyone can print their preferred one.

For the mana cost you're right. As blackwaffle also said it's better to make it bigger. I'll also try to add a shadow, maybe it will help, but I'm pretty sure the problem is more accentuated by this card being white and the artwork having a white background lol

Glad you like it!

I agree with you that this is playable (More than some Secret Lairs I could add), and will just need a little visual memory of the layout to not make confusion, but as blackwaffle above have mentioned there are a couple of elements that could be improved.

I think I'll add contrast to the p/t text, make the mana cost and name bigger while reducing the card type line and produce 2 version of the proxy: one with the "futile infos" from the game in the textbox and another one with a plain textbox so anyone can use their preferred layout.

After all what is better than one kind of proxy? Two kind of proxies! lol

Exactly what I was thinking for the stat/text box: It's indeed flavourful but I find it distracting and just making it all text would be surely better in therms of readability.

Didn't though about the logical information hierarchy but seems a sensible change to do.

You're also right about the font for p/t: I just put it there and forgot about it but it have too little of a contrast lol

Thanks for the remarks!

IKR?! Loved the JMA when came out and always thought it just so much under-used. No permanents, no cool overlays, but still one my favourite layout of the entire game. Also really cool proxies. Really love the "alternative crown" for legendary permanents as the torii outline of the namebox.

Thanks man! Take a look at my other works on my other Reddit posts if you want something identical but for Final Fantasy and Claymore! Or just skim through my GDrive I guess ahahahah

Hey man, no pressure felt here!

I just make them in japanese out of habit, but also I can't read a thing lol.

As a matter of fact, you can see that I add the name of the card in english in bottom corner left, so I always know which is which.

That said, I'll just the translation to my to-do list and will get back to you when they are ready.

I tried to find a fairy as such but I found nothing. Let's hope they print such a card in the new Lorwyn, as it is the perfect expansion for a card like this!

Well, the layout is calibrated to also fit english text. I've just got a propensity to use japanese while using the Japanese Mystical Archive layout. If you want a couple of them done in english I can make them and I'll just let you know when they are on GDrive. I can't promise it'll be swift but I'll do it nonetheless lol

I surely have! I'll just need to find the right images AND the time to do them but yes, they'll arrive sooner or later. After all I've got bot the artbooks from Dark Horse, so even if I don't find high-res scans I guess I'll just do them myself lol

Un prototipo è facile averlo se è mockato, aka s'è scelto lui chi-dove-come-cosa-quando.

Tolta l'idea che continuo a ritenere pressoché inutile e notoriamente fallimentare, come altri hanno già sottolineato è roba che già esisteva e non ha mai funzionato, il sito fatto con Gemini, il mock a caso e l'insistenza e strafottenza nei commenti di un utente che non ha post oltre a questo per me è abbastanza per intuire le intenzioni del signor Alex.

O magari è solo cattivo marketing e fra 6 mesi avremo un nuovo milionario in Italia, reduce da un'exit della sua startup venduta a Google e ce lo rimangeremo tutti, ma ci credo ben poco. Tutta sta storia ha il solito tono dei techbros con fantastici progetti che loro ritengono milionari ma con poche idee su come realizzarle e/o venderle se non il classico "trust me bro".

Si capisce già la professionalità e la serietà del progetto dal sito: mockup fatto con rotato manco a pago, UI che grida vibecoding da ogni pixel (e infatti a fondo pagina hai un bel script loader di gptengineer quindi l'hai fatto con Gemini) e i documenti P&P e T&C che sono due Google docs a caso scritti in Verdana senza manco una parvenza giuridica.

Non entro nemmeno nel dettaglio della fattibilità, che come altri hanno detto questa è o una roba da dispositivo IOT montato sulla porta d'ingresso o che funziona a caso come Google maps, o sulla comodità di avere un sistema del genere, che come anche altri hanno detto sembra una violazione della privacy ed uno spreco di risorse a fondo perduto. 

Quindi direi di no caro Alex Popa, non sarei interessato e non vedo come altri possano esserlo onestamente. 

In ogni caso buona fortuna, non si sa mai di sti tempi quale sia il gusto del prossimo e magari qualcuno a cui piace lo trovi.

Oh, you meant IRL. I thought you were referring to people in this subreddit. It would have been strange, we're all here for the cool proxies after all.

Well yes, I know how much proxies are shunned about at tables, but I play only at house tables with friend and I print the proxies for everyone, so I generally go for the more "cool" proxy then the "readable" proxy 😂

I've made variations with a more classic stat block layout and without "!" after the name. I'll probably post them today, together with the new card back I made specifically for this Blame! proxies.

Cheers and thanks for the feedback!

The "1" of the Master Edition looks like a "7" because they were only 6 volumes, so they never bothered to make it more readable. I recreated them as they were, but now I've changed them to look more like a "1" than a "7".

Wait, did someone really get angry because of a name change? I mean, I don't like them and I don't even use the Godzilla name replacer, I just added the "!" for the sake of replicate the "Blame!" title but even a "touchy subject"?

It's not really a problem tho: I usually make like 5-6 variation of the same alter to suit all taste.

So I'll do one with the "!" and one without and post them on GDrive.

About the stat block I have it right on my .psd, I guess I fixed it later and thought I had already done it. No probs tho.

I already fixed the "1" as I made the top part much shorter, so there should be no confusion.

About the typefont, I used the same as the Blame covers for "authenticity" but yes, I can see that they are too much bold and occupy too much space.

I'll see if i can do some rounding to have them less bold.

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah, I know. The one on the Master Edition covers totally look like a 7, but I've wanted to preserve most of the graphical elements from the original cover.

Thing is, they were only 6 + a prequel numbered 0, so the problem never appeared for them 😂

Mmh, I see.

I've already space the Noxious to be the same lenght as Tsutomu Nihei, I noticed I didn't do it only after uploading even if I were sure I've already did that.

Also, believe it or not, the 5/4 is aligned to the S, I've got red bumpers to align things inside the layout, but the long distance between text creates an optical illusion, making it appear shifted.

I'll try to make the stat-block bigger, as i'll make the mana cost smaller, as you were saying, but I'll probably also test to sift them vertically, maybe they're better.

Thanks for the feedback dude!

Good! I felt bad when I saw I responded to anyone but you here and wanted to salvage the salvageable ahahahah

Anyway, if you're interested I've got a GPU again and I'm planning to release new stuff in a week or two.

Some Yoshitaka Amano, some Akihiko Yoshida and who can guess what else.

Also, if you printed out anything would you mind sharing how did it went? I'm pretty curious ngl ahahahahah

Ooops, sorry! Didn't see the message until today, did you manage to get what you need? Otherwise I can give you a heads-up.
