Custom Magic: The Gathering Cards
13 years ago
A few people have been interested in getting a custom Magic: The Gathering card like Denco’s, so here’s how I’d do it.
(If you haven't seen Denco's MTG cards:) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9226600/
For each of Denco’s cards I did a full page illustration ($55 and $80 for simple and full background respectively). This is the best way to get the level of detail shown in a Magic: The Gathering card. The official cards use even larger images.
I could also use a conbadge-sized image for it which would be $30. It wouldn't be as detailed but of course it's cheaper.
After I do the image it will take me some time to make and print the card. I didn’t use the free card customiser that’s around because as far as I know it only does lower resolution cards. So I’d add a small fee, say $10, for the time taken to do the custom card.
If you want it exactly like the original cards I still need to fiddle with printing double-sided cards. Otherwise I can laminate it straight away. Of course if you can print it yourself or even take the image and make the card yourself.
So it’s the cost of the image –
Full size $55-$80 OR conbadge size $30
Plus $10 for making the card.
