About Cloud's DAP

Hey there! My name's Cloud; or at least, that's what everyone usually calls me anyways. (:

 

I'm based out of Virginia and I've been a Magic hobbyist for a long time. I've also always had an fascination with graphic design. A while back, I decided I'd like to make the most of those two worlds and start creating my own cards, especially with the rapidly accelerating decline of card quality in most of Magic's newer sets.

You might know me from my old Etsy store I had a long time ago. My stay on that platform ended rather abruptly due to personal reasons, so I'm terribly sorry if you were negatively affected by that! Please reach out to me on that platform and I would love to make amends.

 

Recently, I've returned to my hobby of combining my experience with graphic design with my desire to make high quality and attractive custom proxies. I'm experimenting with a lot of different ways to print my designs, to include but not limited to, raised gloss finishes that accentuate key pieces of card art, cross-hatch art with cold-foil finishes, gilded card edges, and more! As I work through my design ideas, I'll list whatever I've made here if it meets my standard criteria if you'd be interested in grabbing a copy or two for your own decks or cubes!

All of the assets my cards use are made in-house by yours truly, to include the frames, textures, presentation, and even the artwork. I like to put a lot of effort into what I make and I can't even begin to describe how many scrapped ideas I've had to go through, so each card in my catalogue was made with a lot of love and care, especially those that have unique finishes!

 

I love other people who partake in the hobby of making custom alters and want nothing more than to see more cool designs flourish in the paper world of MTG. If you'd like to support my efforts and what I do, then feel free to look around! If you ever have any questions or just want to chat about something, feel free to shoot me a message! I'd love to hear from you.
