The Full Bleed project - back on my bullshit [03.20]

February 2023: This once started as a thing, then became another thing, got weird and headed in a few different directions, and then collapsed in on itself. If you're new here, enjoy the ride.

If you've ridden this ride before, skip to the end for the juicy bits, and have fun.

OP: i'm not quite sure where to put this. there are some inconsistencies in my work here, but i'm also not a graphic artist. full bleed alternate cards make wonderful promos (hint hint) and should PoD ever become a thing, i'm sure people would pay a premium for re-stylized cards.











thoughts? criticisms? vehement invective?

GODDAMN AMAZING! DO WANT THIS!

i'm using the classic source material, because it's what i have available to me in one format or another. hopefully we'll get new backgrounds if/when the game gets resurrected.

WOW!

Not a fan of old mixed with new. Fullsize art is ok, but use current backgrounds. Also, not a fan of blurry left bar. Otherwise neat.

Those look freakin' sweet. Just gotta fit the expansion symbol in there.

Hey, those are really great! Now art is fully shown to respect the whole piece instead of just a character's face.

Good work!

Love it. I am not sure if it works for all cards, but I appreciate the effort you already put into this experiment.

Please do this for Stanislava!

Here is an idea for the PR Poles...

When there is a new set in the pipeline, which based on current trends will get released almost annually (like the last two landing on or before the last two ECs)...

1) Get a handful of vampires and actions drafted EARLY (There will be some cards that should sail through Playtesting)

2) Full-bleed the art as MUCH as possible.

3) Print out basically 10 sets for each Continental Championship and post them to the NCs (5 sets for Finalists of LCQ and 5 for the Finalists of the Championships).

4) Maybe try toss in a poster of one of the vampires or crypt cards at a large scale for the Championship Winner (one per Continental).

Looks like the font for the card names could use a thicker black border. It would help a lot with legibility for artwork with lighter backgrounds.
