High Priestess, from my fiance

She hasn't drawn in a while, just getting back into it. I'm very proud of her.

Do it as a direct link to the image (bbcode option) when you generate the link, so its easily visible in the thread.

Okay, I love all three entries, will pick winner and crit hopefully today

I know this is a little late but I am going to enter it anyways. Got stuck trying to pick fonts... as usual.

I cannot figure out how to do this; is it an option on mobile?

Are you using the Awful app? In the upper right is a button labeled "[bb]", in there you can use the "Insert Imgur" feature and it'll take care of the rest for you. Very handy!

E: also I'm not an artist and never had reason to post itt, but I've been following along for a while because you're all making some real nice art. This thread is nice.

Very apt. I like the starkness of the design. Of the three cards the middle one is probably the strongest both in terms of theme and composition. I think the first one has the most issues mainly in the negative space between the arm and head - having it disrupted by one of the swords makes it distracting.

Nethilia

It's a nice simple illustration with decent composition, and I like the folds and drapery on the dress. There are issues with the placement of the head, and the scale of far eye. Her head is too far forwards on her neck, which in turn makes the neck look too long. The left hand eye (her right) is too small - it should be a bit shorter - i.e. you wouldn't see the far corner of it, but not actually smaller. Hands are also a bit small, even taking into account the cartoon proportions

There wolf

Interesting embroidery/collage. I'm guessing everything included is moon-related as well as the obvious apollo capsule. The red lines seem to be a blend between a conspiracy theorists red strings, and a depiction of a human-moon face. On the whole though, I think it works well as a piece of art, but not so well as a tarot card.

Sauncy_Rodent's fiancee

Love the colours and composition on this; don't think the scroll at the bottom added anything, especially with the letters not being morphed to fit. I like that she's a lot less passive and catholic than the traditional High Priestess depiction.

Non-entries (sorry guys

)
Shinz

The Lovers and The Catfish grossed me out, not gonna lie, but I did enjoy Plague.

Sigma6

Really nice art-deco style border, good composition, and I like the idea of these two being bound together beyond death.

Of the entry-entries, I'm giving it to Saucy Rodent's fiance� - Dodgy CGI scroll aside, I really like the colours of this, and could easily see a full deck. Should she ever get an account, she's due an art dome tag, but for now, she has the sacred duty of picking a new challenge. (general 1 week for signups, and 1.5-2 weeks for art)

Also, it's cool to see new people show up amongst the entrants.

It's a busy month for me so I'm dropping my piece in. The original is in ink but I am, in 2020, teaching myself the basics of putting my ink art into the computer.

The prompt said we could do a three card spread, but in 2020 the only card that's coming up is the ten of swords

This prompt is cribbed directly from an episode of FaceOff.

I'm in. Is it going to be a conventional forest or is stuff like kelp forests in play?

The assigned forests are generally going to be cool or interesting ones, with some notable or unique quality.

Angrymog: Jan 30, 2012; Really Madcats

Sign me up, but if the forests aren't going to be assigned until end of signup, she might want to allow two weeks to work on it.

They'll be out earlier than that, just waiting for her to compile a list of forests and some sort of randomization system.

She might also like, get an actual account and take over and poo poo.

Please don't buy her an account or encourage her to buy one for herself while a known abuser still profits from it.
