Re: CUSTOM Showoff Time - Ty Cobb!

If I'm correct, and Mike designed those, then my previous statements on his work stand.... simply amazing. Better than anything I've seen, as usual with Mike's stuff.

I have one question on the Cobb, why is his name reversed below his right hand?

My thought exactly. Also, I don't like the inclusion of Pujols on the quad being that his career is not over. Unless that is a season stat, his slugging percentage will change.

EDIT: I see that it is career and his slugging % is now sitting @ .629!

Good point. Pujols could get better, or he could get worse, but odds are that he won't have the exact same numbers when he retires. Amazing nonetheless.

I know his career slugging will change, but many times cards list stats at the time even though it may change. I will have him change it to .629 or whatever it is at time of print. I do agree it may be a little premature, but still wanted this concept card, but thanks for your input.

Oh, it's a great card. It was just the first thing that came to mind. Congrats on those, by the way. Do you have scans of the cards you will be destroying to create this card??

I might put back the production of the card until the post season starts so that the slugging percentage will be stagnant for the end of the '09 season, if that makes sense. Awesome stuff none the less!

Last time I showed pics of cards I used, i had a few people upset that I would destroy perfectly good cards, so I'm screwed if I show and screwed if I don't :lol:

Re: CUSTOM Showoff Time - Ty Cobb!

I can't believe you're ruining those cards to make a custom. What a complete idi...just kidding.

I just like to see the originals that will be no more.

I would NOT destroy and make them myself....I only trust 200lbhockey now. I don't even send stuff to knuckles anymore.

That Ted williams card will actually be used to make 2 cards. Only the "9" is being used for the quad...THe "MVP" will be kept in tact to make another of these:

Re: CUSTOM Showoff Time - Ty Cobb!

Yeah I know Mike makes them. And he does absolutely impressive work. He should get the card companies to come to his house and put on a clinic on how to make quality cuts.
