#MTG PROXY PRINT TEMPLATE TRIAL#
After much more trial and error, I was left with some pretty cool tokens. I eventually learned to cover every nearby surface with plastic bags, but not before I had coated my keyboard and mouse in a nice, sticky coat. The adhesive spray I used got everywhere. It involved blanking foils with acetone and gluing down proxies (printed backward, which was an adventure all on its own) onto transparency sheets. The cheapest method I could find at the time was the transparency method. I read through page after page, trying to find the best method. Sure, I already owned most of the cards, but the proxies were much more beautiful than the real thing. I had to get some of these proxies on paper. After seeing such fantastic work, there was only one thing to do. I was attracted to the thread because of the amazing Photoshop skills on display there. Also because they play with Power 9, and Library of Alexandria and such. Maybe that’s why the thread is located in that section of the forums.
