My current booster - card game Faral Arena, which needs new illustrations. That's over 100 pics, and I completed 9th today. Anyway, it's a challenge that can keep me focused and bursts with options.
The older version of the pics were done in 2005-6, really outdated pieces, so I decided to revisit them one by one, edit the poses, composition, colours, shading - everything on my current level. You can look at this as a 112-part serie of a "Draw this again" meme, as I attach the old version to most of the pictures.
I also had to increase the cards' resolution, since the icons were rough designed at 32x32, which sometimes showed up as visible pixels. The pics themselves raised to hugeous ~5600x4200 at original, since I scan them under 600dpi. (heck I might switch to 300...) Compared to the 16-pack on a A4, scanned 200dpi, which gives ~490x380.
I dunno... new, vector based icons, and card numbers with Dark/Light deck indicator. Yes I separated the 112 card deck to a Dark deck and a Light one, putting two different game styles into duel. It seems quite interesting in the playtests so far... we'll see at the GameExpo this weekend.
Cheerz.
