BL Trading Cards (Samples inside!)

[Khadijah]

all i have to say is..

While I appreciate your enthusiasm I must request that you refrain from printing counterfeit Bluelight cards. The original Bluelight card appears like this:

or

for those who prefer to fill in their own

With the user name in white on top in a typeface of your choice as long as it "fits" the posters style

Our lawyers will be contacting you shortly if you do not cease production of these bootleg cards and adopt the official Bluelight Card Style Sheet as shown above.



Haha....Yea that is a official letter from the manufacturer right there.

(But for real tho it would be cool if everyone sticks to the template cuz then all of em will look the same n the whole point is kinda havin em all the same format....Yours was mad cool.... I aint tryna be a dick like oh you gotta do it MY way or nothin like that. Jus that the whole point is havin em be all alike like real tradin cards, you kno? )

How did you make that? Did you photoshop over a photo? I know it probably is really complicated, but I'm curious of roughly how it was done, because it's badass.

Nah not photoshop over a photo. not illustrator neither Damien. BOTH of yas was wrong, cuz i used both together. so i guess you were each half right actually lol.

Anyways I just took a pic of myself and then u see those black outlines in the pic. I traced those over the original pic. but thats all i used it for, after i got the outlines i deleted the pic and filled in the colors n details on my own in illustrator for the blocks of color and photoshop for the shading usin the airbrush tool.

how long did it take? I'm guessin an hour or two, but I dunno cause I never used illustrator. I'm just askin in case they one day decide to take me up on my idea of making BL merchandise.

A good idea is to zoom into the image to about 200%, and then rather than hitting enter, try starting a new text line with the mouse, and then once the line is done, position the text where you want using the position tool at the top of the toolbar. Works for me.

Or start a new text layer.

That's kinda what I said, but in retrospect, it looks kinda dumb. Apologies, I was woken suddenly by a phonecall and I'm all groggy and shit.

 

[Damien]

^ Oh sorry. I thought you were talking about rasterizing the text layer and manually manipulating it.

 

[waylost]

Thats crazy talk
