Yeah, I normally do green screen stuff - but I was asked by a local competitive team to do some pictures outdoors. I liked the way the cards and magazine covers turned out, so I thought I'd share my results.

Wow, the trading card front image is stellar. Nice design on the card too. Only small nit would be that I might have given the rear photo a bit more neck and maybe some shoulder, but that is a minor quibble. Did you do all the design work yourself? Who did your printing? Anyway, great job and thanks for posting as you present some fresh ideas.

Yeah, I'm not thrilled with the back image, either. I rushed it a bit, I'm afraid. I should've cropped it better as you mentioned.

Yes, all of the design work is my own. I'm currently using Multi Visual Products for my T&I printing. They print great trading cards, by the way.

Very nice both card and mag. I agree cropped just below the shoulder would be good.

James - Awesome magazine cover shot.

Did you use AB for these (with vagabond)?

Yeah, two AB800's and a Vagabond II. Actually, the team shot had two 800's. The mag shot is with just a single 800.
