Yep, bottom row is the best, this is looking better and better.
Love, love, love those pips by the way!

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
But in this case you can offer two editions. And make this 2nd one completely (almost) black and white, no borders and no backgrounds, and maybe classic pips.sashado wrote: As for colors, I have tried different schemes, but still can't choose one. Personally I like monochromatic schemes much more, but I know that my preferences often do not match other people.

Additional color scheme test, I hope last one. I also had some changes to enlarge margins, so don't pay attention to inaccurate details.

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
This is tough now. The dark background on Spades/Clubs really makes the Queens pop out. I think the top row is better.
Move on, nothing to see here.

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
I also really like the darker background.
A+ on changing the QoC braid - looks much more fitting
and maybe it's my screen, but are the dresses on the QoS and the QoH in the top row the same shade and tone of blue? The difference is a bit difficult to distinguish, but it could just be on my end...
Everything else looks really great.

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
I like the top dark for the black suits, but I prefer the purple backgrounds in the bottom row for the red suits. But I would be happy with any of these.

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
Thanks to everyone for advises, it seems to me that with your help I finally on the right direction to the "bull's eye" option
In the top row all dresses are different, green/turquoise for blacks violet/blue for reds. I will adjust all colors after digital test print.

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
Wow Sasha! The progress on your new deck is looking great I really like the darker background on the spades/clubs queens - indigo/purple is my favourite, but the dark grey works as well. The contrast between the background and the lighter (skin) colour really makes these queens stand out! Wondering if you have considered trying a contrasting background for hearts/diamonds (red/brown or other 'warm' colour that you feel would work with the red suits)? I like the characters and it feels like they each have a story to tell

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
I've decided to go with the colors you see below. For now, I think, it's acceptable color scheme and nice additional concept for the deck. I'm working on rest of characters and when it done, I will revise the colors again.
p.s. is it clear, that backgrounds darkness more or less corresponds to the "world" of the character - wizards in the night, dwarfs in the dusk of caves, elves in the fog of forests, people in the light?

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
I like this set a lot. My elf-loving self would say they belong in the light, not us mucky muck humans, but that is quibbling. I personally love the choice to distinguish all 4 court suits with different background colors.

Re: Fantasy deck - in progress
Sashado, when are you going to launch this deck? Have you given thought to which company you'll use?

Actually, I haven't much progress on the deck, because of main job overflow. I didn't think about a company yet, as I don't know when I will finish the deck
