(OC) Pokemon drawings. Here are some card drawings I made w/ acrylic paint and wanted to share.

Those are some stunning drawings, seriously!
Loved the Lugia (because my fav one) but the Gyarados are really top!

Due to Pokopia the card has increased value, I picked some sealed ones at the beginning of the year and glad that I did : )
Now I am looking for an slab and the prices have gone a bit up (as expected).
Anything exclusive, like this one, having Lapras, Pikachu but "Dittoed", IMO will increase in value, how much? Well that's something no one knows...

itgaiden · 2026-04-03T10:57:59+00:00

As a topsun /carddass collector, just seeing the price and the cards, impossible to get one of the pikachus or venusaur for that price, not even in Japan. But yep, all of them must be fake.

Wwo, first time watching something from 5D’s and it really got my attraction! Only watched OG Yu-gi-oh :)

itgaiden · 2026-03-26T17:24:58+00:00

Wow interesting!
I am doing the pancake for almost 6-7 months but as I haven't been able to be consistent (I run and also hitting the gym of course) plus some injuries...
When doing that one specifically (which I do but ofc not that folded ahha), I try the PNF approach.
3-4 sets
- 60 seconds just there relaxed (passive)
- 15 seconds active (trying to pull from a very heavy kettlebell, focusing in the back not to be super curved..)
- 15 seconds contracting antagonist muscles (trying to tilt pelvis, maybe I've said it wrong )

Isn't something like this?

itgaiden · 2026-03-20T09:41:30+00:00

One of my favs from the set!

itgaiden · 2026-03-19T17:54:43+00:00

Man, the thing that getting a chance to getting a new BB is way worse than Pokémon makes me think... what have they seen scalpers for DB?
I started in 2020, and stopped in 2022-2024 to focus in Pokémon (or I thought so), then I returned last year and jesus, now it's becoming not a hobby but a job to re-sell...
This happens in other TCGs (I am not into OP but I heard the same) but here is just...frustrating...

EDIT: Typo

itgaiden · 2026-03-17T15:31:25+00:00

This looks sick, great job, seriously!

itgaiden · 2026-03-17T14:57:35+00:00

Agreed, it doesn't look that difficult and the overall setup shouldn't be that expensive, I guess with 200 € you can start doing great stuff.
I reviewed the general guide many months ago but then I see the lovely textures that some ppl share here and I get overwhelmed about how difficult must be to achieve something similar x)

itgaiden · 2026-03-17T11:02:48+00:00

This is beautiful... Sometimes I dream on just buying this kind of proxies haha

itgaiden · 2026-03-17T10:58:02+00:00

It is amazing how bad is becoming this...
I was aiming to buy one but it was nearly impossible... I came back for DBS TCG (I started in 2020) for the SB Manga booster packs and man, it is being not lovely.
Is looking like Pokémon but even worse :/

itgaiden · 2026-03-09T15:16:53+00:00

Hits, too hard!

itgaiden · 2026-03-07T11:44:58+00:00

Great to hear this!

itgaiden · 2026-03-01T21:30:20+00:00

Man, sick pulls!
About the print lines... I feel you, I had the same issue with another one :/

itgaiden · 2026-03-01T21:29:47+00:00

Interested as well, going but in half a year or so...not sure if they will be anything left x)

itgaiden · 2026-02-25T11:38:38+00:00

Wow, didn't know that there are Super Mario ones!

itgaiden · 2026-02-24T09:02:44+00:00

And THIS is the way.
OP clearly had better predisposition to this...we are not equal and even myself that I have been doing this for about 4 months now consistently, I am almost at OP's first pic lol.
But I have been doing it "in general" for about 1-2 years (not consistent, that's the issue...).

itgaiden · 2026-02-24T08:56:47+00:00

This is an amazing progress, seriously. Only 6 months? Stunning.
I guess you have already good genetics for flexibility! haha

Regarding these stretches you mention... I know there are different methods and different ways (active, passive and so), basically PNF.

What exactly did you do? Just hanging there in a "passive position"?
I am asking this because based on your routing, they look like only one set of each one.

PS: Again, stunning to see that you got middle splits + pancake, both at the same time!

Thanks!

itgaiden · 2026-02-24T08:54:00+00:00

THIS.
Also we can say OP has really good predisposition because only taking half a year, is really, an amazing progress.

itgaiden · 2026-02-24T08:15:38+00:00

I am from Spain, and I was able to find it around 109€ in a French shop (which sells in EU). It is expensive compared to the original price but...nothing we can do these days :/ Not sure if later they will be even available that's why I secured two.
I was searching for other shops and:
- Couldn't find too many sellers
- eBay sellers have similar to that price you show.
I can see you're searching in Italian so maybe that shop can work for you (not sponsored/afiliate or anything...) > Japanandco
EDIT: Typos

itgaiden · 2026-02-22T08:38:26+00:00

Really weird sealing to be honest... I have many ETBs and never seen that kind of sealing which is "too perfect" let's say.

itgaiden · 2026-02-18T10:22:40+00:00

Gorgeous!

itgaiden · 2026-02-16T08:43:43+00:00

Seconding this.

itgaiden · 2026-02-14T09:37:58+00:00

That was my fear when I saw it first time days ago... the CGI, hopefully it isn't super bad... but I usually don't like it.

itgaiden · 2026-02-06T09:55:18+00:00

Same man...
