So I have just one question: Do you guys want me to work on this now, or later?

If you want to work on it now, I think that's what you should do. I wouldn't mind you directing that energy at playtesting but I understand if playtesting doesn't interest you. Even if we don't use any of the specific templates that you make, we're sure to draw on some of your ideas. Keep throwing stuff around--art is in the brainstorming stage and will be for a while. What's the rule when brainstorming? Propose every idea, even if it's bad, and we'll separate the wheat from the chaff later.

Okay then!

Here is a revamped version of the one I just made. The Parchment makes it look much beter IMO

and this is the last attempt I did before I took my little break that was sort of lost to the mists of time

Far from my favorite, but you said to post em all!

[JESUSFREAK]

Whoops!
THIS is the one that I meant to post!

Nobodies posted, so I assume the art thread's dead for now. I'll come back to these when it's time. Do we have a version of Frodo yet?

Alright @White Knight . You want to put the Gandalf text in here or should I do it?

Who wants to make the card? Is @JESUSFREAK still interested in helping out? I see some cool card templates up there.

I see JesusFreak had some cool templates going. If we went the route of summoning HoME characters to Valhalla generals, would we want to use the standard Valkyrie General templates?

I'm also down to team up with someone and design something more unique to the project.

The polls so far (as well as most of the volunteers if I remember right) are indicating that we will be doing Valhalla generals. So that's a yes on the standard Valkyrie general templates. When we are ready to do an actual release we might reach out to the C3V art team and see if they'll let us use their templates.

With that said, I think we're all expecting that some cool custom-art cards would be a nice touch as "alternate" cards from the standard Valhalla ones.

Definitely on board with some snazzy alternate art. Makes a project stand out

Here is a draft of the Classic side

There were some other options for cards (just look back through this thread), but this was a quick idea of mine.

I like the circular shape and feel it’d be good to go with something like that to further distinguish from the classic scape card.

[Shiftrex]

Seconded, that "ring" style card is just what the doctor ordered for the reverse side lol

[White Knight]

The ring style still needs a lot of work, but it's a start.
