Need some advice. creating trading cards.
« on: February 10, 2015, 02:41:59 AM »
I'm currently in the early stages of developing a series of ww1 sci fi punk trading cards, which I'll hopefully take to kickstarter in the near future.
Im having some trouble deciding between a few things tho.
Firstly, the name. My current ideas are 1)trench land 2)avalon & 3)war world 1.

Other than that, im stuck between two designs of gas mask for the british forces .the options are generic techy mask, or plague mask.

heres the mask designs on some quick sketches.

How about Trench Punk? :)

I think the normal gas mask are fine, the plague doctor masks look too short and don't make much sense from a technical point of view as they won'T even hold off the plague :D

If you are looking for a trading card program, check out Magic Set Editor.

I think you're right, tho I have thought of something to use the plague mask for.

Trench punk is great, it may be the new favourite.

I just remembered the Quar line of 28mm figures, they are not humans but humanoid but otherwise look exactly like british trench soldiers from WWI with Plague masks (actually their snouts as far as I know. So be careful if you want to avoid similarities :)

I forogt who made them but they've been around a few years at least.
