  • Hey there viewer who stumbled upon this
    To my regular viewers -
    Incase it wasn't made obvious in this video
    No I'm not swapping over to MTG
    This was very much an experiment that I think was enough of a success that I thought it warranted a video
    An easy way to reach me is the FoW TCG Server - / discord

    8:58 to 9:08 Why not just print on top of the image layer itself? Does it show through the proxy print or is it because of the thickness it adds making it thicker than your other cards in general?

      If you are referring to like taping a card to a piece of paper and putting that through a printer
      That method can work but you’ll still want a clean white layer so the coloring is correct(this method also requires you to determine the location of where you should place the card on the paper and hope it prints in the correct spot on said paper)
      If you mean just throwing the sticker paper on top of the card that’s also an option but like you said
      It does add a bit too much thickness to the card than I would be happy with
      Definitely doable for a quick proxy but nothing I’d be proud of

    Hey a technique i use to delayer MTG card is packing tape. It does a pretty good job and when you get the hang of it you could do a few in about 5 minutes.

      O hold up that’s not a bad idea
      I might actually try this afterwork tonight
      I recently tried sanding but I feel like the packing tape would be less messy yee
      Thanks mang

    Pokemon, YGO and Magic all use 280gsm card stock, that's why it feels so flimsy. About the cheapest card stock you can get. FoW uses 350gsm card stock as far as I know. Japanese games will typically use 300~350gsm.

    Hello, do you have a referral to someone that makes very good looking proxy sets (Beta/Arabian Nights/Legends/Antiquities; etc?) I've been out for so long, but like the nostalgia feeling without paying the nostalgia premium lol. This would be for my personal collection only. Thank you kindly.

      Hello there
      I’m sorry to say that I’m not active in the MTG communities so I have no knowledge of anyone who is actively making sets worth of cards
      My main game is FoW as mentioned in the video
      I just wanted to show off some custom lands I had made for a friend yee

    i never did proxies, dont plan on it either but if you take a sander to the card for a sec or two i bet thatd get rid of the layer lol just dont go crazy cuz then youll go through it lmao

      O yea sandpaper might not be a bad idea to try out
      Would probably have better luck not ruining the card than acetone
      I’d probably do it by hand to avoid just sanding a hole through the card though yee
