    Fantastic new thanks Luis. I would simply like to have more of my original card. I ran out and need to replenish. Is this something you can do also?

    Thanks

    For sure Anthony the key to it is to have a great, great base pic. Check these examples out.

    Hello dirty ones!!!! So there's  been a lot of hype regarding who does or how can someone obtain his or her trading cards.

    I do artwork for a living and of course I can customize with text, images, graphics and logos trading cards. The key to all the magic of a great trading card is to have a great base high resolution picture to work with.

    Obviously there is a decent kind of work in cutting out, adjusting lighting and shadows, composing layouts text and images. So that said I can personalize trading cards as a paid service.

     

    Another road to take is to standardize a front and back just like the PO and SWAT gallery cards. Which are designed for web purposes. If we go down this road it would be the same design and information

    for everyone. Of course we would have to have a green light from MEPD Command as well as Legion merchandising officer.

     

    Bear in mind that if someone has designed his or hers trading cards with the use of official logos of Garrisons, detachments, etc he or she should request permission for use prior to printing the trading cards.

    I can design them with whatever personalized information or elements the trooper desires. However its the trooper responsibility to get the green light for printing purposes.

    I can do trading cards based on this, hope it helps.:salute::td:

    Mimban, Magma and Jedha TROOPERS NEEDED

    in Announcements

    Posted

    Hi brotherhood! We are looking for inspiration for new artwork proposals for MIMBAN, MAGMA and JEDHA Troopers.

    Instead of using references from the web, we’d prefer if those of you who have any of these armors to provide us with high resolution pics, so we could select which of them could suit best for artwork swag purpose.

     

    See the attached references and visual guideline and pointers for those submitting photos to the MEPD artwork team:

     

    PLEASE DO:

    1.  Have your picture taken in a neutral background. A solid color is preferred. Therefore we don’t loose detail when cutting out the pic.

    2.  Have your picture taken in a straight angle according to your modeling pose.

    3.  Have your picture taken completely, better yet from the thighs to your head so all detail can be present.

    4.  Take different shots in the same angle: front, 3/4. Will select the best pose of your self-made photo shooting.

     

    AVOID:

    1.  Taking your picture in a dark, foliage, or low light background. It makes cut out very difficult and detail may be lost.

    2.  Taking your picture in a shiny or too white background that may compete with your custom and making it difficult to see which is background and which is your armor.

    3.  Taking your picture with flash either from your smartphone or digital camera.

    4.  Taking your picture in full sunlight or complete darkness as detail will be lost or become pixelated.

    5.   The bubblehead effect. This happens when those taking the picture for you raise the camera or smartphone in an elevated angle making you look like a Funko Bubblehead. LOL.

     

    DO YOU NEED SPECIAL EQUIPMENT FOR TAKING YOUR PICTURE?

    Not really, most smartphone now at days come with a decent and powerful camera.

    Setting your picture in high resolution or definition will work out fine.

    The same applies to the use of a digital camera, at the end it all comes down on who is taking the picture for you and the keen eye to make you look great in a series of pics.

     

     

    HOW SHOULD YOU SUBMIT YOUR PICTURES?

    By email Via droopbox, google drive or we transfer link to Sandman´s Tigui e mail: tigui@icloud.com

    Please in the emails header type if you are Mimban, Magma or Jedha and your TD number. Thank you!!!

    Hi Luis,

    was wondering how do I go about getting some MEPD cards???

    All merchandising that has Legion logos of any kind need Legion Merchandising Approval prior to making any. We as a Detachment don't have an ongoing run or design. If you'd like to do your trading cards visit the Legion Forum with trading card runs that may be  what you need.
