Hmmm... Four cards, only one comment...

This is something that kinda turned me away from here
I love the effects and the fact that you use your own artwork (and Pokémon too!). The only issue I have with your cards is that you don't align the attack/ability names. You see, if you have a Pokémon (DPt blanks onward) that has both an Ability/Power/Body and a 3 Energy attack, you should align that attack name with the Ability one.

Edit: I just saw your Cosmegon EX. Seriously, that thing is awesome.

Thanks for your thoughts, I'm glad you like them! I will try and line the text up properly next time, although I might forget...

Your sprites are amazing and are one of the reasons why I enjoy viewing your art thread. The overall structure and shading of your sprites is what really does make you a great spritist. I hope to continue seeing more!

One thing that I notice most about your fake cards are the text. You may want to work on that the most and try improving it. Spacing is another issue. If you are having trouble with this, make sure to check out the real cards to help you out.

Keep it up!

"Kasrane EX" should be "Kasrane Lv. X."

Thankyou, I do try to improve on it, and I think I'm getting better. Just a little more faking...

Fixed.

New fire starters!

Please comment! I improved on the flames, shapes and claws...

Awesome! They look like they're breathing fire, but kind at the same time. I love them!

Thanks, I'm glad you like them! Would you choose them as starters, though?

RE: Arcticwhite's Fakémon Stuff : NEW! Fire tail dragons!

So far I'd choose the Fire one, but it wouldn't be valid so far without a water starter.

No, it wouldn't would it? I guess I'll have to get to work on the water ones now!

I don't know if I told you this before, but I really admire that you use your own artwork on fakes. It really gives them more personality? I really wish that more fakers would do this, even if they aren't the best artists. I've seen some pretty goofy and simple artwork on official cards.

As for the new Fakemon sprites, they're not bad (I really like the second one), but I feel that the first and third are turned a bit too far to the left. I also feel that the front legs of the final form are off a bit. They appear lack bones (or have solid, arc-shaped bones). Try referring to some canine pictures to see how they would be shaped and posed.

I'm really liking the starters and the cards made me like them more. Hybrid seems really good on the card.

Thankyou, I'm thinking of doing their evolutions as cards as well, if I can be bothered (I'm so lazy)

RE: Arcticwhite's Fakémon Stuff : NEW! The trio of Starters

Yep. Dralung is definitely my favorite of your starters.

I can't really spot anything wrong with the fakes except that "special conditions" and "burned" need to be capitalized, "this" should be on the next line (Cansu), and your name (illustrator) needs to be italic.

Cansu's foil could use some work, but I love how the foil looks on Hydir.

For some reason the foil on Photoshop looked too dark and almost invisible, so I had to make it Linear Dodge instead of Colour Dodge. Next time I'll have to lower the opacity of the foil... As for the text, I didn't know that 'special condition' and 'burned' needed to be capitalised, so thanks for pointing that out.

EDIT: I just forgot to make my name italic, I forget a lot of things

The holosheets could do with 2 of them Arc, tis what Neko, CMP, myself and others use :

Top holosheet being Color Dodge (mostly 100%)
Bottom holosheet Multiply, this is the one that defines how it really looks, opacity is based on the background used, how dark it is, the less opacity needed on this; the lighter, the more opacity you need. Otherwise nice cards!

You need to use TWO holo sheets?! Definitely need to remember that and how the holo sheets need to have different layer styles and opacity. Thanks!

Half or 3/4ths right.
Her sprites are having some proportion issues, but it shouldn't be that much of a problem.

Well, it's the same holosheet but it's used twice.

Also, I noticed that your cards have issues with placement, they're interesting, have the right fonts and all but text & symbols look out of place just because of where they are.
If you need help with placement look for cards with the same/similar effects of what you're trying to do.
Other than that great work! The art you make for cards is great, especially on Full Arts
