Hmmm.. Interesting..

i really like it klas! thats what i was talking about, some pure photographic representation! I ask and you deliver! We're certainly going to have a deck of variety! Good use of symmetry to create your two clubs and mirrored symmetry is no stranger to a deck of playing cards!

Thanks Ann and Graeme! I'm particularly glad you liked it Graeme. This was my only good shot to make this card using photos I already had made...

Very interesting texture- might have to put labels on the corners of some of these cards though- to tell what they are. :)

Very nice. Has a Tarot card feeling (2 of staves) Very appealing.

Now, I wonder if Caedes will ever do a Terot deck... hmmm.)

Thanks for the comments. I was thinking I didn't need to put any label on it, but I could be wrong. You do have to trie hard to make it into a two of diamonds, hearts or spades though. I was actually using tarot as inspiration for this card. :)

It would definatley need a label I'm afraid... I had no clue what this was. Where is the club? or the 2?

Ok I'll see what I can do. :)

no no no! dont label it!!! aaaaarargh i think its pretty obvious! i mean come on guys! its got to be a 2 and its got to be clubs! or maybe im just too well trained at spotting playing cards!

No, I think it's pretty obvious too. I will probably not change it. I did consider it but I just can't bring myself to do it. It has a nice balance as it is. Adding new elements will disturb that I feel. Thanks for the feedback Graeme, it's appreciated!

Not trying to be mean or anything, but I really don't understand the symbol- how do you expect someone to get a 2 of clubs out of this? I see a King before I see a two...

No, that's ok. I don't take it like that. Kudos on your associational abilities! King of what? It's a mirrored photo of The Staff of Asclepius that I shot from a tombstone in my towns local graveyard.

It's really only a big deal if the king of clubs will be impossible to spot also. I'll consider it and see if I can make it look better any other way, but sadly I have other things to do right now. Thanks for the feedback anyway! :)

i'm with Grim on this, no additions required, the symbols speak for themselves. i like it Klas, lichentastic too. simple & very nicely done. this is gonna be a wicked deck of cards, I'm def gonna buy a pack :~)

Thanks, I did try some new versions because of the comments on that but they looked bloody awful... ^_^ I'm glad you support me on this point too. Lichentastic indeed. ^_^ Hehe...

Well done Klas. I am seeing excellent texture and light in this too. Makes a unique and interesting card.

Thanks BJ! I'm glad you took the time to say that. :)

I think this one's fantastic. I don't see a problem with representation and I love the natural textures and color. I'm not going to play crazy eights with them anyway, I just want 52 pieces of art where the only thing they have in common is the concept. The stone's really beautiful.

Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you see it that way.

Marvellous and amazing work from a great artist!!!!!

Begone foul spectre. :P
