Hmm, good, but psychic is rather hard to read, and the cuts are a little off on a few pokemon.
Why'll you do have a point about the text, I tried to make the cuts show off the best bits of recolouring on each Pokemon, rather than positions.

Looking back, I think I could improve the card a lot, I did it late and rushed it slightly.

re: Pearl TC Contest - Thread V

SnoopyMaster -

Ok first I have to say how I love you got that colour scheme to work, normally people make it look really bad. I like the trainer, the bg works well including around the trainer himself. The Pokemon recolours are all well done. Only things about it I can think of improving are perhaps the top of Trainers Card is a bit dark, a second background for trainer + pokemon windows is usually a good choice. However very nice card. A

Heart_of_stone -

Interesting concept. A cosplay trainer is a cool idea, though the shading on her body could've been better but it comes with practice. Some recolours like Honchkrow seem to lack in different shades too blending a little too much. I think the second background compared to the rest of the TC is also perhaps a little too dark, but a nice card. A-

game_testerWB1 -

The badges section could use more room and for example the 7th badges is off center. Nice recolours, though a second background for the Pokemon would've been better. The space around the trainer seems too vast so maybe alter the template if you use it again. A-

Celestial Pichu -

First of all, I love the background story. The way you recoloured everything is rather unique and I like that. Lopunny seems a little off to me but the rest of the Pokemon look good. Great custom trainer, which just adds to the massive amount of theming and effort you gave the TC. I'm not so hot on the pink font though as it makes it hard to read 'cause of the red behind it. A

Pashe -

The TC to be honest with you is very plain. It has no real flow, the recolours don't look right on most and they don't seem cohesive to one another. I didn't notice the badges until I looked for them, the Pashe namebox thing looks tacky and you really needed a second bg for the Pokemon. C+

Sweet Sorrow -

Good card. Pokemon recolours are nice but like Celestial Pichu the Lopunny seems a bit off. Trainer looks good, nice use of bg's. Trainer's Card doesn't look that great though and the red badges seem to have a domination over the TC. A-

ArcadianSky -

This would've been good if it wasn't so dark. Even the bright colours fail to bring out most of the Pokemon, the badges are hardly noticeable and you can't really tell where some bits of the template start and end. Good theme but sorry this card doesn't do it for me. B-

Jizzi -

Ok first let me get out of the way what I don't like. The Muk dress is strange though a cool idea however she is massive and her placement in the trainer box isn't nice. Trainers Card needed to be recoloured to stand out more. Now that I've done that I'd like to say the Pokemon recolours are great, the TC has a lovely flow to it but watch out on Pokemon cuts and badge recolouring. (blend a little) A-

christina2010 -

A nice cheerful coloured card. ^^ In terms of Pokemon recolouring it's all good but I'm a little iffy on Beautifly and the overpowering dress of Bellosom. Trainers Card could've been a different colour, but love the rest of the TC and theme. A-

FourthBeat -

It's a great card. Trainers Card could've looked nice being the same colour as the name. Oh and watch out for dark Mr Magmar down there. XD A

Minirizzle -

Interesting theme. Like other people mentioned psychic is not very visible. I know with the theme the badges being recoloured would've been difficult, but I feel this TC is a bit lacking in areas. A-

Ineedhelpalot -

Simple, well you weren't kidding... it doesn't make it look good though I'm afraid. The block backgrounds aren't that nice, the only decent Pokemon recolour is Cyndaquil and it's all so space inefficient and well just basic. C



~~~Results~~~

1st - SnoopyMaster, Celestial Pichu, FourthBeat
2nd - Heart_of_stone, game_testerWB1, Sweet Sorrow, Jizzi, christina2010, Minirizzle
3rd - ArcadianSky


I will update the scoreboard tomorrow and find a judge for the new round.

Just as a note to everyone, when doing a TC which has Pokemon on both sides of the trainer, flip the ones on the left horizontally so they face inwards towards the trainer like those on the right. It gives a better sense of equiilibrium, a better look and a better grade even.

Yes but:

quote XtremeZH
The reason you've seen the card before is because I've used it before. ANd so what if I have been permabanned? I'e bypassed before. What's wrong with bypassing if I don't break any more rules? If I don't go on a flaming spree or a spamming spree, etc., what harm does bypassing do except get back a member?
And I'm not bypassing because I'm not using an account.

Ask Mini. I don't think you're allowed to be judged. :/

re: Pearl TC Contest - Thread V

I've talked to you about this, and your entries will not be accepted. If you take my advice, then maybe you can start entering again.

Good judging Richie, as I've said, for the next open round I want to fix that one up a bit.

I'll post the theme for the next round soon.

re: Pearl TC Contest - Thread V

New theme: Steel, but no silver.

Make a card with Steel Pokemon, but you cannot have any other part of the card with the colour silver.

Steel cards are really rare, so I thought this would be an interesting theme. Sure, monotype cards may be boring, but I hoped this would bring out some creativity, especially with the silver rule.

That would be the most likely outcome . I'll try and enter this one.

I hope some people do enter. Sure, it's a relatively hard theme, but if a lot of people work hard for a hard theme, they could get rewarded down the track.
