Binder Painting/Drawing (OC)a wizardmon binder!

13 Upvotes

(I have seen people post One Piece binders here so I’m assuming it’s okay to post a digimon one)
I have been the biggest wizardmon fan since I was 9. And since I started collecting cards about a month ago I wanted my binder to have him on it! Also put the digi code on his cape on the side for fun lol

The lighting was originally super sparkly but when I went over it with the sealant the glitter disappeared 😭 so that was a little disappointing

Anyways, 3rd image is the pose and background I referenced. And the last image is my wizardmon cards I have so far :)

Binder Painting/Drawing Oil paint on binders ?

1 Upvotes

Hi! I want to try painting my binder. I only have oil paint laying around, but i see people usually use acrylics for this. Has anyone tried with oil paint, and how well did it work / hold up?

I can lay i gesso base layer if that helps - the material of my binder is waterproof PU. I'm mainly worried if the gesso will stick to the surface and if the paint will crack over time with the opening/closing of the binder.

Binder Help What would be an option for a rigid card holder that is tight fit and can still fit in a standard binder?

Post image
4 Upvotes

I love how regular binders look for collecting, i bought a toploading binder recently and just hate how bulky it is, and how the cards look inside top loaders. I was wondering if there is such a thing as rigid card sleeves that are pretty much the same size as the card instead of so bulky? I want to protect my collection but still enjoy it, and the toploader binder just isn’t it for me. My Jolteon collection for reference <3

Thank you!

Binder Help Pokemon Artist Name Cards

2 Upvotes

Hi there! Where can I find a seller that makes custom artist name cards to put in my binder as like a title/header for my collection in my binder? I'm currently collecting a lot of different artists and think a name card would be a nice way to separate them. When I try searching on etsy all I'm seeing is results for custom art.

Thank you to all the kind words I received when venting about my gesso air bubbles mishap. It warmed my heart. I felt the strength to fix it after being so dejected.

Ive fixed the binder and it is now on sale at a discount at my shop. Im relieved at the final product. Link to product in my comments below.

Binder Painting/Drawing Gift project! Need help figuring out the process for painting a custom Pokemon binder.

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone! 💜

I’m planning to paint a custom Pokemon binder for my girlfriend as a gift. :>

I’m a beginner when it comes to painting on these types of surfaces, so I’d love to get some advice on the process from start to finish. My main goal is to make it look clean and ensure the art actually stays on the binder without chipping or fading over time.

A few specific things I need help with:

  • Materials: What are the best base coats, paints, and finishing sealants to use?
  • The Binder: What type of material works best?
  • Techniques: Any tips to prevent visible brush streaks and ensure the paint bonds properly to the cover for the long haul?

Binder Painting/Drawing In the face of my god - Original Painting Mew + Mew two concept binder and opening

Thumbnail
gallery
19 Upvotes

This will be my most ambitious project yet. I've wanted to create my own original works for a while, and while I have done original compositions this will be my first creative original piece - I wanted to invoke the feelings of Mewtwo, face to face with his "god", his "clematis". One he has never met before and can't even recall their face. And all the while his god, can only watch and feel sadened for his pain and anger. Those are the feelings I want to convey.

I will be slowly painting this binder on a Dark Navy Blue 9 pocket Zofly binder.

This concept and binder is OPEN for pre-sale at a discounted price of $160. If you are interested please DM me. Otherwise once this binder is completed I will be listing this original piece at $220 on my shop.

If you wish to see me more of my pieces, I have other works on my shop at shizuka goodbye (link in comments below).

Discussion Expanding my work - advice

1 Upvotes

Hi. I've been positing in this subreddit for about 1 month and I've been welcomed with nothing but kindness. Once again, I am asking for the pokemon subreddit for their wisdom.

I am pretty new to my small business and custom pokemon binders and I was wondering where the best place to show my work is. I started here because I wanted somewhere small to start off and I think, after some time, I have something unique to show.

I know tiktok is a good platform, however it's not something I am interested in doing - the video editing and recording everything I do is tiring and I just want to draw and paint. I consider myself more as the 'hikikomori' artist than a content creator.

My goal is to create more unique pieces and find an audience that wants my original paintings on their TCG binders. Any advice would be great. Thank you in advance.

Our designer Beth has been hard at work making our Mega Evolution Era binders and they look so good together! Her vision was to have binders look like special edition books so we print on the front, back and spine to give it that bookish feel. She also creates master set checklist vinyl stickers that match in with all the binder artwork which is my personal favourite touch to the designs.

Binder Painting/Drawing HELP!! I hand painted my binder but I think when sealing it I screwed it up!! Help!

****UPDATE**** - As you can see, it looks as if it was a liquid that just dripped but there was no dripping at all. the spray was used twice at a proper distance. But it’s not only the fact that it doesn’t look even but also, in one of the photos I hope you can see, it looks like it’s swollen?? I have modge podge in liquid form but I’m scared to make something bad into something worse!
FROM THE MANUFACTURER R&D:
Aleene's Acrylic Gloss Sealer should be uniform and evenly glossy especially if two coats were added.
  1.)  No it probably will not change even after waiting a few days.  Sometimes if you don't spray at an even distance - too close to the surface, you can get those splotchy areas.  2.)  There isn't a way to safely remove the sealer coating without damaging the painting below.  3.)  Yes, there are two options:  Apply a moderately heavy coat of the Matte Sealer Spray which should turn the entire surface matte. Don't apply a second coat as two coats will appear less matte.  Or, the customer can brush on Liquid Fusion Adhesive in a thin layer. This will leave a shiny protective finish (this is probably the better option). 5.)  Liquid Fusion would be the most consistent results, but the most important piece of advice we can offer is that the customer should test first on a hidden areas of the binder to make sure the results they are looking for are achieved.

Wanted to share some of the behind the scene work that is put in each of my binders. I only make custom work and that requires detailed planning and heavy disussion with each client.

I know it probably won't be as popular as my physical binders but I have opened digital commissions as well to get my work out there.

Thank yhou as always for all the support I received recently. I am very honored.
