Printed a bit more bling for Nymris today, finally giving it the panoramic basics it deserves!
These basics from Lorwyn are some of my favorites.

Still been proxying, so I figure it can’t hurt to share a pic every now and then. Today I made some Avatar upgrades for my Nymris Flash deck. I’ll never stop wondering why the actual scene cards didn’t use the special Avatar “Elemental” frame (uncropped, and less blurry too)

@ImKyle4815 Hey, do you have HD version of the Katara ? I might wanna add her to my cube !

@JayWski Thanks for checking in 😊 been surviving… I was diagnosed with a pituitary tumor in December, so I’ve been passive on social media lately, but working on treatment and am hopeful
English
@ImKyle4815 hey, randomly was looking and noticed you've been inactive here. I hope everything is alright!

@FeedtheFishMTG Thickness or rigidity? I’ve never found the perfect mix of both, but I provide links to both in the guide I linked. I personally prefer having enough rigidity at the cost of being a tad too thick
English
@ImKyle4815 Oh I meant blank magic cards. What thickness do you like most for the feel of a magic card if not printing directly onto an MTG card

@FeedtheFishMTG There are plenty of blank poker sized cards online, I’ve gotten tarot sized cards before (link in my print guide) that I then trim, that brand likely has other sizes too. #materials" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">imkyle4815.com/print#materials

@ImKyle4815 Any chance you know where to order blank cards or where to get great card stock?
English
@FeedtheFishMTG Cardstock is easiest, but with a good laserjet you can print direct to blanked cards using a carrier sheet (cardstock with a card sized cutout for alignment)
English
@ImKyle4815 Hey Kyle! I’m looking to print directly onto a magic card. Is this possible or is just using cardstock best?
English
@RNG_tilt But yeah, it doesn’t smudge off to a light touch, but any brushing motion takes it right off 😭
English
@RNG_tilt Oh no! I wonder if there are some settings using the premium presentation paper matte option that are rich black (or very dark gray, just without blue) but don’t smudge 🤔 I’m going to be “away from printer” for awhile, but next week I’ll be tempted to try out some settings…
English
Finally set up my printer in my new apartment. Deckbuilding may now resume 😎
English
@RNG_tilt So the “premium presentation paper matte” setting does produce a nice rich black, but ever after drying for a couple hours it smudges 🤔
English
@RNG_tilt Awesome, thank you. I’ll give this a try sometime today and report back 😎

@vibeproxies954 Epson et 2750, I’ve got all the links to my supplies n’ stuff in my pinned tweet. And thanks!

@CubeApril @MTGCal I honestly can't decide what card this art *would* go with.
English
@Trenzalore_ Thanks! I used to use my website cardconjurer.com, but after a certain cease and desist I had to remove all magic card templates… now I use some personal templates using affinity designer, followed by my printing process, outlined here: imkyle4815.com/print
English
@ImKyle4815 Cool ones! Which website do you use to make the proxies?
