Customs with Premium Relic Pieces - mouschi3 - 11-19-2015 This past week has been quite eventful! I was asked to write my second article for Sports Collectors Daily. I wrote about how to break down and sell a large collection of cards before your wife kills you. I was also asked to play a part in a commercial! The commercial was for an entry in Crash the Super Bowl for Doritos. I wrote about it and put it in some "Off Topic" forums, but figured I'd post it in this blog posting as well. You can check it out here: https://crashthesuperbowl.doritos.com/gallery/-created/4/4184 Needless to say, I'm not going to be quitting my day job anytime soon, lol! The video guy who created this posted it on the Doritos site, and so I had my family check it out. I decided to view some of the other entries... guess who is in another entry also? Jose Canseco! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL4TzEQQNmQ&feature=youtu.be I thought that was really ironic. I mean, what are the odds? Speaking of Jose, I ended up doing a few customs for my collection. After doing some 1976 customs, I figured I'd try one out of him. Then, I thought - hey! Why not do one of a picture my wife took of him when we were at his house? Here is the back side of it ... so much more interesting than boring old stats A few days ago, I saw a video of someone's collection, and as he was flipping through his cards, he showed a dual patch 2007 Ultra Dual Materials. I thought that it looked awesome, so I figured I'd cook up one of my own using this jersey: So, here it is: While I was making it, I kept thinking about how Ultra had Gold and Platinum Medallion parallels. I figured I'd cook up a new one myself. How about an Atomic Medallion? If only 2007 Ultra made it for real, but since it is for my personal collection, I guess this will more than suffice As for premium pieces, I was able to put together a few nice pieces of some Hall of Famers, like Bert Blyleven, Dave Winfield and Paul Molitor. Here they are: I realize this isn't nearly as wordy as what I normally post, but I just figured I'd post some of these pics up before the dinner bell rings. Thanks for reading/looking! RE: Customs with Premium Relic Pieces - djohn - 11-19-2015 The video quality on your entry for Doritos is pretty good. I won't comment on the acting, but I think you have a decent shot at getting into the finals. The 1976 Topps custom looks pretty nice. The fielder in the border even looks a bit like Canseco.

I thought the same thing. Just needs a ball bouncing off from his head. RE: Customs with Premium Relic Pieces - mouschi3 - 11-20-2015 I'll admit, that thought crossed my mind as well! RE: Customs with Premium Relic Pieces - Phillies_Joe - 11-21-2015 Really like the Atomic.....as a fan of the 1976 series, great job. I thought the same thing. Just needs a ball bouncing off from his head. Smile.....haha, that would have been awesome Zep. Nice Video......good luck! |
