Topps Chrome — Conceptual
About the project
Two Players. Two Completely Different Worlds.
Created independently in 2026, this conceptual project explored two distinct approaches to Topps Chrome football cards. The work was pitched directly to Topps but was ultimately not progressed, and is presented here as an unofficial portfolio concept rather than commissioned or published Topps work.
Galactic frames Jude Bellingham through a premium cosmic language, combining chrome, gold, orbit-inspired detailing and a dense holographic finish. The front and reverse were designed as one collectable system, balancing spectacle with player information and card hierarchy.
Power Players takes Harry Kane in the opposite direction: a graphic, comic-book-inspired route driven by bold illustration, explosive typography and Bayern Munich colours. Together, the two concepts demonstrate how a single card format can flex between prestige and high-energy storytelling.
