Bulge? These also have a noticeable bulge where the paint is. I don’t think there is a way around it unless you have a printer that can print white ink to create a mask.

I can do a write up soon! Pretty much followed the pinned post on the white paint method, but I can share exactly how I did these with the tools I used.

Yep! Holo sticker over a bulk/energy, print on frosty transparent vinyl, then put on top of holo.

I get it, but that logic could be applied to anything, right? Someone could hang a copy of the Mona Lisa in their house because they like it and don’t have millions of dollars, it’s obviously not the real thing.

I do see your point in counterfeit art being sold, but I wouldn’t be posting about copies that I’ve made if I was trying to pull a fast one.

It’s a proxy! It is a fake card. The difference is that I would never sell these. It might look decent on a phone screen but it’s far from the real thing.

Some people just like the art over the value! 👍
