Thank you Alanch for the awesome customs!
Thank you Alanch for the awesome customs!
Thank you so much for the customs you made for me. It knocked me to the floor and I was shocked at how well done they are. A little back story for folks here before I get into the mega scans...
Years ago Al posted a request for some custom card assistance for Packer players who didn't have licensed cards of them in a Green Bay uniform he could get signed TTM. Unfortunately time travel has not been invented yet otherwise his future self could have created something right up his alley.
I decided to give it a try and designed an Erik Walden:
It was fun designing the card though not very autograph friendly with dark colors covering most of the front. This was before I revised TTM-style cards with a fade out section. I had done a couple custom projects before but thanks to him and Gadsden86 I started doing a bunch more.
Fast forward to about 8 months ago and he posted about a new concept for Letterman-style cards. I loved the design and asked if he could do a copy for me. I wound up printing off two and enjoyed them a lot.
This past Christmas I did a short run of 5 cards for a new type of custom card. The idea came to me almost immediately after the game ended and I wanted to do something to commemorate the event.
Finally we arrive to a couple weeks ago when Alanch shoots a PM over to me about a new project he's working on and wanted to hook me up with a couple examples. Knowing his quality work I was excited to see what the latest was and boy I was NOT disappointed!
Simply phenomenal customs based off of 1989 Topps and 2015 Crown Royale. The scans simply cannot do justice to how they look in person. The green hexagon pattern has a depth that a picture can't match and the refractors look so much better in hand. The gold "superfractor" styling is a wonderful backdrop.
Unfortunately for him, he now has caused me to have to up my game and try to somehow top his latest efforts. The production quality is such that I know I can't match it so I'll have to pull out some tricks to figure this out .
Thank you again for the excellent job and gift.
