Re: Fantasy deck - in progress

Wow Sasha! The progress on your new deck is looking great :) I really like the darker background on the spades/clubs queens - indigo/purple is my favourite, but the dark grey works as well. The contrast between the background and the lighter (skin) colour really makes these queens stand out! Wonderi...

Re: The House of the Rising Spade

Oh it's hard to pick favourites :) I do like the Jack's pets, reminds me of the daemons in 'His Dark Materials' - the soul of the character, if you like.
Strongest characters for me (at the moment) are: QoD, JoH and KoH (though they're all great!) :)

Hi Munik, Thanks for sharing and definitely looking forward to see where you take this :) I like how you introduce the star indice for the Major Arcana, it's a clever and simple way to distinguish these cards from the rest of the deck. Because you are creating a tarot and playing card deck, I sugges...

It's a tricky one as both designs have something going for them :) ... maybe the top one (because of the retro wallpaper feel). 1 and 5 feel as though they suit the theme most, though I would love to see one of the blues or reds from the faces incorporated in the back (but that might just be me, loo...

Re: Retro Classic Court Cards

Looking good :) I agree with the faces/heads needing a little more attention (line weight and maybe some hair colour too). I'd suggest making the small pips a bit smaller (so they match the width of the letter). This would also give more white space around the indices and help balance out the design...
