Neo Neo Blank Pack I: Baby, Basic, Stage 1+2

Description

Inspired by Karite-Kita-Neko's printable jumbo cards, I've decided to do something I should've at the start of Neo Redux...correct blanks. When the set was still just me updating Nick15's Neo blanks to create, at the time, the largest available blanks, half out of laziness and half out of the desire to make really accurate blanks, I didn't make a blank blank -- each type is edited from a collection of scans of that particular type. While not obvious when looking at individual cards, it becomes clear when trying to layer the blanks for dual-type cards/textures. Having never imagined the set would get this far, I was content with what I'd made...until the past year or so. I realized that I'd never be able to mass produce Dark- and Light-Pokémon blanks, dual-types, etc, and I've wanted to do so for a long time.

So here's a preview of what's to come. The blanks I'll release (and re-do Redux on) won't be this big, as there are simply not enough HQ texture scans. However, they'll probably be around the 1000x1400 range -- still plenty big for customizing to your heart's content. The Energy symbols are tricky to get right, as those have to be custom made as well. I think I've done a decent job on Fire -- while it's not perfect, it'll almost be impossible to reproduce the symbols 100%. 

I've also completed the Stage 1 and Stage 2 evolution circles (and Baby and Mega are soon to come). Once those are done, all that's left is reproducing the Energy symbols and upscaling the textures. Shouldn't take more than a week or two. The hardest part will be remaking 800+ cards. Since I'm close to finishing the Kalos Pokémon, though, it'll be a nice way to tide me over until Gen VII!

If you're interested in using them and there's a type you want released, let me know. Otherwise, I've uploaded the PSD file for you guys to do whatever with. Just be sure to give some kind of credit and let me see your results! Layer folders should be pretty self-explanatory. Currently has Baby, Basic, Stage 1, and Stage 2 blanks layers for Grass, Fire, Water, Lightning, Psychic, Fighting, Dragon, and Colorless types. 

Newest Update (17 Sept @ 4:00pm EST): Added Lightning, Psychic, Fighting, Colorless, and Dragon. The Weakness/Resistance symbols are still a WIP, so only Grass-Lightning textures have them. If anyone has a good resource/template for the "swooshes" please let me know!

It's looking great! :) I hope you can add the light/dark borders. specially the basic dark, which is usually doesn't have a blank, and it's quite handy to do rocket pokemon :P
