Weekend idea
🕑 Added 2022-09-05 16:10:06 +0000 UTCI wanted to create something retro looking for an ad-card. But instead of doing that I came up with this:


Creating "simplified" court cards is something that I want to do since I started to design cards. Removing all the objects from the court cards is what I do today.
Notice how the QC holds the rose. That's something I did a few days ago. It's only a small detail but after so many decks I got so bored how the standard Queens hold the flowers in their fists. A lot can go wrong when you redraw hands on courts but I think this is an elegant way, without losing the standard looking court card look.
I have a few ideas right now with this back design but nothing concrete yet. It's just fun to create something new/different.
Much love

I love the idea. My mind immediately goes to the vault boy from Fallout. It would be quite cool to see a deck in that art style, or even a vault boy style joker on a deck with these backs.

Love love LOVE the simple court with the finger detail. Pure elegance.

The simplified Queen looks great and it really highlights the rose, which is perfectly on brand. And the hands are really elegant - the forefinger and thumb grasping the stem is so much more delicate than the traditional ham-fisted illustration

The ad card is awesome. I'm not 100% sure it's your "style" but in a more lighthearted deck, it is really great.
