So there's obviously not very many Golf cards being produced anymore, but there are a few great young players that I'd like to have cards (RC's) of. Obviously if some company decide to eventually start producing some again then RC's will emerge, even if they're years after players turn pro. Anyways, I was bored here at work and had my laptop with me so I decided to make a Matteo Manassero RC. Wondering what you guys think; all constructive criticism is appreciated. It's quite obviously influenced by Goudey designs, and the 'Future Superstars' is a reference to my fav card growing up, Lindros Future Superstar RC.

It's at 200% for better viewing.

    It's pretty.

    The blue is great.

    I think the stylized font for "GOLF" detracts. I might prefer
    "GOLF" in the same font as "FUTURE." It would also highlight
    the abstract concept of "Future Golf."

    Mixing fonts is always tricky biznez; especially on cards.

    Great Work!

    Yeah, something is not right with that font mix but I'm limited with my choice of fonts as I have my library at home. I'll play around with other fonts when I get some time at home.

    Thanks for the nice comments guys!

    that is cool and well executed design, even if you are going off of the Goudey inspired theme

    Thanks again... I wonder what kind of money Mannasero would be asking to allow me to release that card, lol.

    Offer him a box of a dozen Titleist golf balls for every case of cards sold. image
