One unique aspect of foil cards is that a separate mask must be made for
the foiling process. The black portions of the mask are not foiled,
while the white portions (usually light sources and highlights) receive
the foil treatment. Sometimes the mask looks very much like the finished
card image, but other times it's a bit more obscure. In this contest, you
get to see what the foil masks for some of the Reflections cards look like
– and if you can figure out the species of the person(s) shown, you
could win!
Below you'll find portions of the foil masks for ten of the new Reflections
foils (not reprints). Some are personnel cards, others are "verbs"
(dilemmas, events, or interrupts). What you see is most of the actual image
area on the card, cropped enough to remove borders and icons (because they
might help to identify the species). For each one, choose what you think
is the species of the person or persons in the image. (If there is more
than one person in the image, they are all the same species.) If you believe
the person shown is of mixed species, select that option. For example, if
the character was recognizable as Mr. Spock, you would select "Mixed
Species", not Vulcan or Human.
We will randomly select awinner and two runners-up from all completely
correct entries. First place will receive one display box of Reflections
packs. Each runner-up will receive 12 Reflections packs. If there are not
three entries with all ten answers correct, winners will be selected from
those entries with the most correct answers.
You have until Thursday, November 11 at 5pm Eastern Time to submit your
winning entry. Good luck!
1. First, select a species for the person(s) shown on each card.
If a character is of mixed species, select Mixed Species. Any mixed
species characters shown will be a mixture of listed species.
