I think I figured it out! How does this look?


Pretty good! If you are using GIMP, there is an easy way to minimize the light outline of the figure (I'm sure Photoshop has it, too, but I use GIMP). Choose the "fuzzy select" tool (looks like a wand) and click in the transparent area. Then, go to "Select" on the menu bar and click "Grow". Set it at 1 pixel and hit OK. Your selection area will grow inward on the figure, covering most, if not all of the outline. Cut the selection out, and you'll have a cleaner figure image. You'll need to do this for each separate area of the figure image. You can use the Select by Color tool instead, and it will select all the transparent areas at once. Quicker, but you have more control doing each area separately.

Man that worked great! I added the updated card to show the difference. Starting to get the hang of this

Since the C3V's official Ebon Armor sculpts are so difficult to come by, I was hoping that someone would be able to make an alternate card for me with these Praetorian Guard sculpts from the Griffin faction in Confrontation.



They're lacking the shields that the official sculpts have, but this was as close to the theme of the Ebon Armor that I could reasonably get (and honestly, shields have almost never impacted a game of mine yet).

Re: MCC-Makers of Custom Cards-turning customs from text to

Hello all you wizards.

I am back with 5 cards to be made! Feel free to ignore me as it's quite a bit.
I noticed MCC has become quite the buried place as of late, so don't worry about rushing to get these done. I can always do them somewhere else or just plain try and do it myself.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is a set of 5 Doctor Who cards. I created a special "Key Symbol" for the 5 card set, so when I request that a key symbol be added, I am referring to this:


And a huge thank you to anyone who so much as takes the time to read this post, an even larger thank you to anyone who takes on this job.
On with the show:

The Doctor (9th):
Spoiler Alert!

Rose Tyler:
Spoiler Alert!


Captain Jack Harkness:
Spoiler Alert!


River Song:
Spoiler Alert!


The TARDIS:
Spoiler Alert!


And that concludes it! Thank you once again to anyone who picks this up!

It'll take me a few days to get through these, but here's the Doctor:

EDIT: And I'm just going to upload these as attachments, which means once I put up a second, I'll have to delete this one. So please download this one when you see it.

Also: can you get me "figure" images that are portrait rather than landscape? It'll make the cards better.

Re: MCC-Makers of Custom Cards-turning customs from text to

BEAUTIFUL

And yes I can, I just chose the best ones rather than good ones that fit cards. Downloaded 9 btw.

different arts for Rose and Tardis:
Spoiler Alert!

Oh, and side note, if possible, please keep Cpt. Jack's full gun in in the card.
And sorry about the TARDIS one, I accidentally grabbed the wrong picture. Good thing you drew my attention to it.

Re: MCC-Makers of Custom Cards-turning customs from text to

Awesome! Although @superfrog , honestly don't bother with the rest, I have upgraded my computer to new beast. So now I can run MSE and make my own cards! Heck, I am now offering myself for MCC. (and yes my old one was that pathetic, don't ask how I managed to live with it)
