Earlier in the year I made cards for any Cubs player that didn't have one made by Topps or Upper Deck. Several of thes players ended up with a card in the Update set.
Let's see how I did compared to Topps. My cards are on the left, and Topps' are on the right.
I don't think I did too badly!
I'd give you the victory. I like the Topps DeWitt and Cashner, but only because of their horizontalness. Otherwise, I'd give you the clean sweep.
ReplyDeleteYou win on all except the Castro
ReplyDeleteI like the official Starlin Castro & Blake DeWitt cards, but otherwise I think you did better.
ReplyDeleteI agree - great job!
ReplyDeleteFirst two go to you, Castro and DeWitt goes to Topps, and the Cashner is a tie.
ReplyDeleteI'd give you all of them except for DeWitt. For some reason, I like the Topps version of that one better.
ReplyDeleteTopps' silver lettering for the player names is completely lame (and unreadable)!
ReplyDeleteYour mockups are awesome! I like yours better on the Silva and Cashner, and the others are at least a tie.
ReplyDeleteYou should use that Blake DeWitt shot for a 2010 Upper Deck card. That's exactly their style of semi-obscuring photography! And since you can't really see the logo OR the player, they wouldn't have to pay either MLBP or MLBPA for licensing!
