The room is gone now

The goal is to get all 22 done so I can use them in the story mode only special cases like Kinsei's are acceptable right now, but in general I won't approve of anyone doing a card that's already in progress or done by anyone else until all 22 are completed.

I already started on it.

Darn hate to tell yah, but I'm looking for the Major arcana first, you can find them on my latest blog, the ones without the asterix are free, I'd SO prefer you do one of them first =[

That's pretty cool, I have wanted to make my own deck but it's such a daunting task I think I'm gonna have all the cards pretty soon possibly, at least sooner than I thought, so now I'm just gonna have to wonder what cards will be left behind. I want to do one (The Fool or Wheel of Fortune, but I'm gonna wait til everyone else has had a chance to pick them and then I'll get to try

this isn't a call on it yet, but just a thought...

Aww, can I have dibs on the empress, pleaaaase?

Sure I guess... I was just going to do it so they would kind of be a set... but I haven't finished the first one yet. So feel free :P

Just make her smexy :P

I'd say make an Empress card if anything just so you can have the set, and I'll be sure to make sure it's in the gallery, it just might not get into the story mode if Darkittys' is accepted

Any style is fine, as long it's not drawn poorly.

Nah, I wouldn't want to bother you. Your already busy managing this collab. I think I should redo it though.

Alright, but if it's anything like this submission it'll most likely be accepted.

50-Fifty

I think what makes the most sad is that I was looking at artwork of amazing artists who don't post anymore.

Anyway, I'm sure eventually we'll have a game that can be handled

Sorry guys but those aren't gonna make it into the collab, I'm looking for quality here, and like I said, if it's gonna be funny, it's gotta be funny.

I'll let you take a stab at other cards but if you don't bring the quality up, I'm gonna have to refuse that option.

Fan art someone wants me to do...

Just so you're aware, my latest blog will keep up with which cards are being worked on and what cards there are in the major arcana.

Didn't plan on reviving it really, just was looking at my bandmate's Newgrounds account and came across the theme he had started for the project and wondered about it.

It did seem like way too much though...but it had so much great work...such a shame

Whatever happened to SHMUP?

Fer sure! And an added bonus that may or may not happen, for those who get co-authored, I may get this deck printed and sent out.

This is all dependent on a few factors though

Okay, in light of Ash's words I think I'll amend the time one has to work on a card to three days (sound better?)

Thanks Argile! I know all the cards by heart since I started doing tarot card readings maybe two years ago?

Welcome to The Tarot Card Collab!
In this collab I'd like for you guys to recreate one of the twenty-two major arcana tarot cards, these are the cards that are well known (The Fool, Death, The Devil, The Hanged Man etc.).

For reference, please use these images of the Rider Waite tarot deck: http://roswell.fortunecity.com/vanthal/2 32/RiderWaite/Majors/index.htm

I want you to create the card in your style using at the very least, the name of the card as the theme for the card. I'm looking for good quality work, serious and/or dark themed work is preferred but if a piece is funny enough or quality enough I'll consider it.
Here is the file you will be working with: http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/aec5 1485c34a0072c52507dccc5e7810
The large empty space is for your workspace the smaller one is where I'd like you to put the name of the card and your Newgrounds username. Save the file as a PNG

To explain how the collab is going to function:
1. There's going to be a "story mode" and in this mode the user is asked to choose from three questions which will be answered by three cards (most likely they won't be random, sorry) and after it's answered your story progresses further and you are asked to choose from three new questions and again once answered with three cards, then one final time the user has only one question which is specific to that chain's story and their final question is answered with three cards and the story ends (happily, sorrowfully, angrily, or otherwise depending on the set of questions chosen).
2. There will be a gallery to display all art contributed to the collab
3. Not a guarantee but there may be a "one card reading" option which will include all story mode questions, plus other questions which can be submitted by participants of the collab being answered by a one card chosen at random (without narration as the story mode will have).

Aside from the contributions of Major Arcana card, I'd like to have some easter eggs which will consist of Minor Arcana cards which can be found here as well http://roswell.fortunecity.com/vanthal/2 32/RiderWaite/Majors/index.htm

I'll only be approving of one version of each card, you may still submit versions of other cards which have been approved but any others than the ones I've selected to be part of the story mode will only be included in the gallery.

Other talents I'm looking for include:
%u2022 One female voice actor to voice the gypsy who will be narrating the collab.
%u2022 One person who wishes to do the backgrounds and story panels for the collab (story panels being a picture which summarizes the story being told by the gypsy during the story mode card readings.
%u2022 Anyone willing to contribute animation to the collab.

The collab opens today and it will close once the twenty-two slots are filled . You can contribute as many times as you want, I'll be checking the thread regularly to state what cards are accepted.
To participate you must post onto this thread saying "I'm going to do (insert this card)" and from the time you post that, you'll have two weeks to submit your card or be within a reasonable distance from completion or that card goes up for grabs.

My goal though is to have all the cards by January 29th. So, try and make that happen.

I'll be choosing co-authors based on the amount they participate and which contributions I believe to be the best.
Do not alter the file supplied past "aging" the card, I'd like the cards to stay the same color (unless it's being "aged").

Have fun and let's see what the cards have in store for you.

Eh, 50, I kinda took my dislike that everyone is using pretty much the same color scheme out on you, sorry =]

For a person on Gaia, doing commissions so they'll check my band out... pathetic? Yeaaah

Here's the new one.

Tried a deviantart meme for fun and to see for myself whether or not I improved and I don't see a whole lot of change, but there's some.

This is probably my favorite personal thread, it's amazing how much you've improved while retaining your style the whole time

Better now, before there wasn't much arctic about it.

Penguins are mostly black and live in the arctic, how does being blue make it more arctic than blending in with the landscape?

My tarot cards predicted this remember?

For my collab, it's the template

New question:

What is your favorite art piece (from your own gallery and if you don't like any or can't choose then don't reply?) and why please.

Like Felis said, the forums are usually charting an artist's progression. And yeah, I would say sometimes it's just fun to draw whatever you want (as in nothing serious) but I think I prefer art that has a meaning or an emotion it's trying to convey, I'm not particularly fond of political art though.

I don't wanna post art in this thread so look at my thread or my gallery to see things that I did and you'll see a healthy spread between things that were for fun and things that have meaning.

Yup, it blends in perfectly don't you think? Plus it doesn't look too arctic with the first scheme. Change it again? I can change colors in a flash you know. Observe.

But a hunter so skilled it doesn't need to blend in is much more awesome, but tis just me
