Here's what everyone was waiting for, the launch of the First Edition STEEM Trading Cards Game Deck.
The 60 STEEM Cards are done and decked, and here's the post to show you all of them as well as the neat cover I made for the project... here it is:
Of course, the deck's theme is something that marks the current moment of the blockchain.
Granted the Flag Wars are a bit nasty but nobody can deny they are dominating the current state of events, and thus I felt the cover was fitting.
No matter what your side in the war is, or how in favor or against it you are, I think everybody can enjoy the humor in this image.
So, what are the 1st Edition STEEM Trading Cards?
Without further ado, here are the lucky STEEMIANS who were featured.
If you are present here and you want to thank me, simply leave me a comment doing so, it's the best thing you can do :)
And here they are, the 60 1st Edition STEEM Trading Cards.
It was a blast to make them, and we have quite the collection right here.
Now let's proceed on to the Promo Material.
I've done some mockups for the game.
Yesterday I gave you a sneak peek of what I was doing, and today I've added some other stuff.
Here's what I made:
The Deck Box:
Of course that these 60 cards had to come in a box, and this one was the one I made for that purpose.
The side is reserved for sponsors :P
The top is reserved for the bar code and whatsnot...
Joking, in case you don't know I am not going to sell this, and instead all of the card images in this post are high resolution and everybody can save them on their own PC if they are inclined to do so.
Still I like to do these kinds of models.
The app to play the game...
...or something like that, maybe just a wallpaper.
It looks mighty fine though doesn't it?
Heck, I liked it. Hehehe.
The Lorebook.
In case you don't know of the "Lore" behind all of these mythical Steemians. Here's the complete story of all 60 of them, included in this nifty book.
It says 100% Satisfaction guaranteed, so what's not to like?
An alternative Deck box, made in a "Duel" style.
One faction on one side, another on the other, or at least that was the intention.
Most of the "characters" behind the cards I made are neutral in the war, but this concept is baddass because it makes the cards seem more battle ready :D
Finally, here are the cards laying down on the table.
As professional as they come if you ask me - Joke, I'm a noob and I know nothing about design, but I made my best.
Of course I'M happy with them, they look great as far as I'm concerned, but that would be obvious since I spent a lot of time these months around this project.
This project will be missed.
Finally, you'll be seeing me signing autographs close to this stuff:
A roll-up... of course... the promotion wouldn't be completed without it :D
Ho ho, they look even more "Majestic" right here.
Finally, let me just say I love you all.
95% of ALL ENTRIES were from nominations. I only chose a small fraction of the Steemians to be featured in this first edition - the vast majority were from people accompanying this project and wanting their friends or even themselves to be immortalized in card form.
I spent ALL of my STEEMIT life (3 months) working on this project on a weekly basis, and seeing it finished means a lot to me.
This STEEM Trading Card Game was also the posting series that brought me the most visibility, and my number 1 position on the Trending section for its first edition, which I'll never forget.
Now that I finished it, I feel like I completed a milestone and I'm ready for a brand new challenge.
Thank you for letting me feel welcome in this community. I'm 3 months old now, but it feels more time has passed since I joined.
Who knows if one day I'll make a second edition... for now, I'll take a break from "Cardsmithing"
Cheers!
