He exposes Panini by creating his own collection of World Cup stickers: "It wasn't that difficult"

The World Cup sticker collection has become a matter of state in Argentina, where the government has had to put land in the middle between the newsstands and Panini to alleviate the shortage of albums and figurines.

Finding an envelope has become an almost impossible mission in the South American country and the reactions of those lucky ones who are looking like crazy for Messi's card have gone absolutely viral on social networks.

Beyond the lack of stock, other criticisms that the new Panini collection has received have to do with the design of the cards and the players' chips. As an alternative, an Argentinian designer has published his own creations showing the entire manufacturing process using Photoshop.

The creator has published the result on his TikTok profile @ferdelucaok, where the clip has had a spectacular acceptance with more than 25 million views. "It wasn't that difficult," he writes, wanting to embarrass Panini.

In the video we can see the comparison of both creations taking Leo Messi as a reference. On the one hand, the Panini chrome with a simple tempered orange background and an image like a passport photo.

On the other, the designer chooses a photo where the Argentine star is seen in full action and immerses it in a blue-white background (playing with the colors of the Argentine flag). In addition, the tiktoker adds interesting and visually attractive details such as the position of the player on the field or different statistics of the footballer.

Given the avalanche of praise and requests, the designer has made another video in which he shows cards from different selections and announces that he has released his own NFT collection.
