Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 After seeing a good amount of custom mats being posted, I decided to try my hand at making one on my own. [url="http://i56.tinypic.com/291orvb.jpg"]Sakura/Ruka Game Mat[/url] (It's a little bigger than a real mat, 24'' x 8.712''. So yeah, just click the link to view) I know it's a bit basic and lacks the real flair of the other mats, but it's a start I guess. Anyway, please CnC this. I'm open to suggestions on making these better. If you guys like them, I may continue to do more of these and add on to them (in short, this might turn into my custom mat gallery) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max West Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I like it. Maybe a background? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted November 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 @Max: Don't rate in Showcase, it's one of the rules. @Kaisu: Yeah I know it's a bit basic. But I'll add some more flair on the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaisu Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Try using Matrix/BoldSmallCaps next time, more authentic. If you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted November 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I'll try that. For now, it's just something I want to use for real life (casual) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovedrive Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Is "Discard Pile" actually Graveyard =D? Like Kaisu said, it's kinda simple and basic. It's just: • Blue BG • Added Tech Circle, renders, fields and text. Text could be better. Also, adding some light effects would be much nicer. But anyway, nice effort. It's pretty nice and simple for a 1st mat. I hope you'll make more =D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yeah, Discard Pile = Graveyard, I wanted to make the words the same size and Graveyard didn't work, so I had to go with that. And I am planning on adding some sort of GFX effect on the next one. Or give it a non-solid color BG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaisu Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 I just had an awesome idea... ;D Tech BG + Slots + Circle + Text + Render = ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted November 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Then the mat would look somewhat like a booster pack, I see. I'll think about doing that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaisu Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Exactly. New Sneak Peak playmats? *shot* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted November 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 That might work. I might try to do a custom Storm of Ragnarok one though, but IDK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementuo Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Go ahead and make the mat the way you want to make it, but: If you can make the mat look as amazin as the Shooting Star Dragon one does, then I will... Well, I don't know what I'll do yet, but it will be something epic. In fact, you tell me what to do, and I'll do it (to an extent, of course) Just something to think about.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted November 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 It'll depend on how good the Shooting Star Dragon images I find are. And whatever I can do in GIMP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementuo Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Oh, I meant that you would make that Storm of Ragnarok Mat you mentioned. I was just using Shooting Star's mat as an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted November 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 I said that we'll see about that. But same thing, it'll depend on the images I have of cards from there and other things (I have renders of the Polar Gods though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
