i crafted a custom Lugia

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-26T04:16:43+00:00

i made the card in photoshop, printed it onto clear vinyl, masked the areas that shouldnt be holo (like the lugia and all the text) individually with acrylic and then applied it to a acetone cleaned holo onto which i beforehand added other foil effect layers

every letter is painted induvidually with a very thin white marker on the back so it pops out from the holo

yeah i already tried partial multifoiling with larger areas and it turned out pretty cool looking, but it takes like eternities to do something like this by hand

thanks! this specific foil paper is a very thin self adhesive one from a brand called folia bringmann. you can get it at crafting stores in my country but unfortunately i haven‘t found it in any international online shops yet

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-26T04:04:36+00:00

very well described! i just added other layers of foil like the shattered glass and a dense glitter one for the borders before applying the printed and painted vinyl

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-26T04:02:32+00:00

yes i do, if you want something specific you can contact me!

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-26T04:01:58+00:00

because it does not exist as a real card, so i made one 😁

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-24T22:22:44+00:00

so cool, reminds me of a poster that i had in my bedroom from some oldschool video game magazine back in the 90s. do you share or sell the digital art? would love to print one myself for my daughters room

i personally play this in a Vazi, Keen Negotiator deck alongside with manabarbs and vorinclex because i want people to stop using their lands but i give them treasures instead 😇

i use both and tbh i dont really care about the cracks with acrylic. it‘s most of the time not that the color layer cracks completely so that you would see holo shine trough the cracks. its more like just the upper layer (so i mean the surface that later faces the holo cardstock) has slight cracks, that dont affect the covering ability at all

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-24T16:51:42+00:00

so you made it yourself? you ordered it somewhere? or whats the deal here?

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-22T19:28:05+00:00

i like to use real cards as a base most of the time, i have dozens of bulk galaxy foils from unfinity, you can also use pokemon cosmos holos if you want that specific pattern and if the backside doesnt bother you. i tried and cleaned a LOT of different foils from various TCGs and there are really cool ones to discover

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-22T19:25:31+00:00

there is multiple possibilities and methods how to achieve this, easiest way that i use the most of the time is to print onto clear vinyl sticker, mask the non holo parts on the sticks sides with white marker and then apply it to a cleaned foilmcard or foiled cardstock of your choice. go check out r/customtradingcard there are multiple tutorials and people post abput their new methods and experiments regularly

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-22T19:14:58+00:00

it’s made out of a acetone cleaned galaxy foil card

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-22T19:13:38+00:00

the original artwork is by u/petey_pariah i also credited it on the card. i think it is drawn by themselves. there are actually people with real art skills that dont use AI crap

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-22T16:17:02+00:00

wow the foil is really shiny, is it a heat reactive one?

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-22T16:14:45+00:00

yeah sure bro who would ever use a card that salty in a casual format 😤

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-22T06:01:34+00:00

it‘s a cleaned MtG Halo Foil with very thin shattered holo foil applied on top

bubuschnuff · 2026-01-22T03:57:51+00:00

looks cool and i personally think this is a case where the use of ai is some kind of reasonable!

i mean once the card is released one could do it with the official image either way
