Black dragon looks amazing! Not a fan of the first one (too generic perhaps, black one art has a whole atmosphere and feel to it. really like it).

Can't wait for this shit. So cool :D.

Pretty good actually. I would still recommend people put them in sleeves but I think youd be fine spilling a few drinks on them.

More ornate that I expected. Like them though! Are your cards going to be pressed or printed? Pressed is alot more expensive relatively but with all the compound colouring going on (expecially on the front but now with the sphere on the back as well) it might be a desireable step with regards to product quality. Can't speculate on the effects on production/product cost though.

Anyway, how many sphere/backcolours will you be using? Since the yellow/orange/white are all pretty close together. Not that I mind, not at all but just curious why these and not the typical different colours like green/black/white/red etc or whatever differents parts of the colour pie you want.

The more I see of this the more I like it. Especially the very different artstyles on the front are so cool. Personally I'm a sucker for the heavy saturation versions but that's just me. Seeing all the very different styles is just sick ;D. Great job Coag!

the color scheme for the back of the cards is bronze silver and gold. we went with that cause its already a pretty well established value system and we seen it lined up with how many card backs we needed. Im working on separating the color levels more to give each one a more distinct metallic look.

not sure about the print or press.

You can always do a color separation process (depends on what program you're doing the designs) and have a 3 color separation, and apply gold/metal/bronze inks for the pressed way. It will deliver superb quality (it depends on the print shop doing them) and it will look sexy as fuck.

You can always add special coating or what not in some posts (sometimes called SPOT UV) to give the cards some more detail or just that unique look.

regarding to the logo:

I'd start stripping down of effects the logo, take away all shadows, glows and everything, try to settle for something relatively simple, an image or pictogram and then go for a (maybe) custom font. You can always take one of those you just chose and model it after you needs. You have to make sure your logo scales down well, and I say this with all my heart, well is not "it looks alright" it NEEDS to look almost close to perfection in smaller sizes, even if you're removing the type for the sake of space.

If you guys want I could guide you through the printing process, I have 3 year experience on a Print Shop, I used to mess a lot with metalic inks and whatnot.

Cheers on the project and better wishes for life! .

Funkie you god damn sexy as hell bitch <3.

And bronze silver gold would be great! Needs the metallic though and press4life. Figuring out the press colour codes after having decided on what it should look like on PC is a huge bitch though haha. Fuck I hated that when I was designing my housestyle ;d.

Could you put one in the bottom right corner?

Another idea(though much harder I would imagine) is a cool thing where you look into the orb in the middle and see the logo in there. The 3rd logo would work best for this although it might need to be made smaller.

Just the first 2 ideas that popped in my head.

putting it in a corner or over top of the gem doesnt work very well.

so this is what I have come up with

the colors change based on the card color type of back so it matches the card backs.

Sweet shading.That looks epic!

edit: Although I would like to see what it looks like when seen together with the whole card back.

I'd make some sort of combination of these two. Grey one is a bit too quiet for my taste whereas the golden one is too busy for a cardback. I'd try the grey version with golden mana spirits logo and golden gems. Looking very good though, keep it up!
I think esports is pretty nice.

Yeah great art overall. I see that you changed more of the card back than just the skull. It looks like these are made to fit on top of one another now.

If you don't mind me asking, how much time have you spent on art for this stuff? It comes out awesome fast. :o
