I found this to be the best tutorial for making unit cards: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=122098

After that, it's all practice and imagination.

It is possible and was how many mods made cards before someone worked out how to make them in Max and wrote a tutorial, it's a painstaking process though and the results are never that great.

I used to put the unit I wanted to shoot on a wall in custom battles, that way you can get pretty close.
