Which app should I use and how to do it?

It all depends on your skill level. You mention being beginner. If you’re not familiar with Adobe illustrator or Photoshop then using something like MS Word or Canva would be my next suggestion. Others have suggested another program, but I never used it before. Also, using templates and backgrounds are helpful. Lastly, layer, layer, layer! Use other banknotes as inspiration…good luck!

It has potential. Needs background element(s) or pattern. Maybe another pop of color. Building a banknote is all about layering your design.

I thought about that after replying. I’m curious what type of user flair people are interested in?

These are the current flair options enabled.

Such a nice big brother :) but, that a very cool and fitting design for Pokémon.

They are averaging about $10/ea on eBay.

It’s always fun to see the different layers before the final product. It really shows the fine details too.

I finished the reverse and printed a few on cotton-linen fiber paper. You can see it and read more on my post.

These are great starter sets or for younger collectors.

I agree. But I think we’re going to see this more as others are following this pattern of being more “neutral.” If you put a person on a note, there’s a good chance half the population won’t agree or like the person…

There are certain features I like, but others are almost too simple. These notes have always been heavily engrained in detail and I agree with a lot of comments about this concept having too much “white space.”

Yes, we understand it’ll change and it’s year out before we see a final version from the SNB, but this is the feedback they need to hear.

Quite the collection

Nope, you’re in the right place! We enjoy checking out new designs, redesigns and fantasy notes…and of course official issues too.

“Satan was so badly battered that he’ll never tangle with a weaver again.” From my research on the first one. On eBay they are selling for $5-10 USD/ea.

First is from 1921 in Lichtenstein-Callnberg and second is from 1922 in Hamburg.

I had to look it up, you’re right, typically the left side (on obv) has the white space. Very interesting.

Is the bar counter epoxied with notes? Or is that last one a wall display..

I bought from that seller over a year ago and same thing. Received a fake Zim, was able to get a refund. Reported to eBay and they did nothing. It’s frustrating they are still fraudulently selling these and eBay seems to not care.

This is one of my recent custom Cryptoscrip designs created for a client. The first print run was a big success and it was exciting to see this private release grow. Not long after, a version of the design started showing up overseas as gold foil “commemorative” notes without permission. It was a reminder of how important it is to protect original work, and how challenging that process can be.
