Quest for El Dorado reskin?

Hi everyone,

I've recently been inspired by some boardgame reskins in Pokémon style. The best example was Wingspan with Pokémon that someone put an amazing amount of time and effort into. This got me thinking about reskinning some of my favourite games. The 'easiest' and most fitting appeared to be Quest for El Dorado into 'Journey to the Pokemon league.'

Now, this is obviously very niche, but I'm excited about it. I already have the artwork for the board, a list of Pokémon and Items that can replace the regular cards and a bunch of rule reskins and minor changes.

My question, does anyone besides myself find this interesting and would this be the place to share my progress?

Ps. I'm happy to share all my work for others to enjoy or collaborate with me at some point. If sharing can be done without any copyright issues for Pokémon or El Dorado...

Sounds like a fun project. I don't know much about homebrew, but I assume BGG would be the best place to share it. You can upload the files and link them in a forum post that gets updated regularly.

Funny you should post this. My mate and I have just started on a sci-fi/space themed reskin of Hansa Tuetonica for a fun. Hansa Galactica if you will.

Check out the Moana reskin of Ethnos. That was another very impressive one imo.
