@EmanueleBGN do you think you can do animal crossing cards of Wisp, Holden and Filly? I'm thinking of making the Wisp card with the Villager bin. I don't know yet what bin I would use for the other two, but I like the idea of at least having the cards.
Thanks!
I don't know if I can find good images for Holden and Filly. For Wisp... take a look in my folder ;)

Ya, I already have the samus art. I also did photoshop pieces of metroid together to get a whole thing, but its very photoshopped. I would like the clean art. I havent found it, but hopefully nintendo posts it at some point. I would assume it would be in the art book that comes with the uk special edition of the game, but I would prefer to not have to wait till then. And it would probably be lower res and someone would have to scan it which is not optimal.

I already posted in my thread, asking there if anyone seen it. But I kind of wanted a wider net on this one, because like you said, as of now its proving hard to find (if its out there at all yet).

if anyone is curious about what my franken-metroid looks like:
I'd say you did a pretty damn good job on the Metroid. I was going to do the same thing you did. I found several HQ box arts, and I was going to piece them together.

If you look at it directly comparing it, you can tell it's not correct. You notice the mirroring and bits of the bubble highlights that I couldnt quite get rid of. And obv in higher resolutions I can notice the imperfections even more. So really hope we can get a clean image of metroid.

@EmanueleBGN Me again... :D Do you have the Fire Emblem characters (the ones from Smash collection) with the FE background? I didn't find them on your folder. Do you know if someone have them? Thanks!

No, I made only the official of FE. But, who knows, maybe in the future

Edit: @alltvseries look in my FE folder

Hey guys, Total noob here but hoping I could get a bit of help (feel free to scold me if I've completely missed a post here)

I've been looking through the thread and making detailed notes on creating the cards and combining tags (i.e. they can go through a laminator) but I just need a bit of help with printing sizes.
I'm going to be printing the cards on photo-paper and laminating but I want to know what size is the best for these and the tags to fit nicely? I've done a test print "9 on one sheet" (Windows photo viewer printer) as I'm not hugely confident with printing via Photoshop and they're just 2cm bigger than a credit card. Would this be a good bet or is there a specific size to make the most of the paper?

I'd be hugely grateful for any help you guys could provide. Also, thanks for all the hard work that you guys have done for creating the amazing card designs!

EDIT: Nevermind, I finally found the post I was looking for which had a template for printing - sorry for my stupidity!

Killing time with photoshopping Splatoon card designs until Splatoon 2 finally gets released.
Are there official renders of the alternate color inklings? Since I couldn't find any I started recoloring them myself, but it's so tedious :(
Pink Girl & Green Boy of the new amiibos are missing too, but I guess they'll appear sometime soon with the release. Untill then I'm gonna stick with the renders EmanueleBGN used

Green Girl & New Purple Squid are done, Purple Boy is next...

That's how they look so far (still work in progress).
I don't want to exactly copy the designs of the box art, but try to find my own approach instead.

So, are all the amiibo covered? (Besides the above Splatoon 2 amiibo)

I'm willing to make some cards for a new amiibo. I'll also try and work on some more duo cards, those are cool.

EDIT: I made a Skymiibo back. There wasn't a back to the Skymiibo cards, only a front, so I thought I might as well make a back to the cards. These are playing card sized as I don't particularly like the credit card size, but feel free to make a credit card size of your own. Print them out and sell them, idc.

Or, if you want to edit the card...

.xcf (GIMP's version of .psd):
Download skymiibo back.xcf
The Bowser at the bottom is for a size reference. I did not make it, don't credit me for it.

Are there any scans of the Animal Crossing and Mario Sports Cards?

BTW: a huge thank you for making these Amiibo Cards!

Does it auto format them in the correct size or do I have to size them?
Cards are already in the right format, 88x63mm
