paint work is sick; top notch!
cardbacks are much more eye-catching than anything currently on the retail market...why is packaging overlooked so much these days!?

I'm working with simple modelling clay from a manufacturer named "Eberhard Faber" over here in germany if that's any help, actually nothing special. It's sanded down with 2 types of sandpaper.

Thank you guys! The interest in Hasbro Customs seems to be even lower than back in the day, but i've made a facebook-page for my stuff anyway: Tommys Customs , I will update it with new stuff and eBay-links from time to time. Once again, thanks to the few guys for the kind words! |

Wow, Tommy you're still at it!
Both look great!
1 and only thing if I were a buyer I'd want an actual Hasbro bubble. The custom carding is cool and unique but the bubble would be the kicker.

Yea, i'm back to the roots The bubbles are the reason why i'm making my own cards. MOC hasbros are always better with the unique bubbles but i don't have the money for all of the bubbles so i start something new. I hope collectors will like em. Other artwork can be seen on the facebook-page! |

Never heard of it, tell me more please. It was a technique that I used at school many years ago to form a shape from plastic using heat. Once I get my laptop working, I will look into it properly again for you. |

That would be sweet, thanks a lot! From what I remember it involved extreme heat and may not be possible at home but I will definately look into it for you. |
