    So we can draw from both Major and Minor Orcana, right? Cause I'd really like to take a swing at the Eight of Swords.

        First time! Sorry if my images didn't post right...

        I gave this illustrated a go. "Strength." I don't know how much more time I will get to put into it, but figured I would post it up.

          I had to change the snake's pose as it was rather static. I put it lower cause I didn't want to be dominant. I also changed the color values closer to the final.
          So, this is the new sketch. Time to work on the final image.

                Default 3 Cups


                Hi everyone!

                Attempting 3 of Cups! Suggestions/preferred composition?
                I personally like the 2nd and 4th one.

                  KSho - I personally like 3 and 4; they both have a nice diagonal composition with interesting negative space. 1 and 2 are a bit centralized and symmetrical; they don't have as much movement and might come out a bit static.

                    Thank you very much for your advice. I think I'll try and work with 3 and 4 because you're right, they look more flowing than the others.

                    Also, I read about this card and it basically involves the social drinking setting, so 3 and specifically 4 looks like they embody that. =)

                        I like your idea for the world card. Especially the animal icons

                        here's some progress on mine:

                          I realise you might do chariot but your 3rd sketch is great that would be a great composition on a card

                          Hello everyone!

                          This is one of my first post here in CGHub. I've been following you and this thread but never post before cause I've been finishing my website/portfolio (just released!!)

                          Well, I love the idea of "remake" tarot cards, so I could not let it go. I have chosen the Justice one. I don't really know why, cause I don't feel too much identified with the justice idea, but I think the idea of drawing a woman with a sword is enough to start painting.

                          This is the process of the rough sketch in grayscale:

                          Now I think I should start with the color. I don't want to have a really detailed grisaille because then color it is like work twice, don't you think?

                          This is a detailed pic to show you the stage it is now:

                          What do you think about it?

                          Now I am not sure about the lions. They are a personal license and do not appear in the original card. In a first moment i though they are related with justice (i think) and they fit well in the throne. Shall I keep it or delete before coloring? I'm in a heap of indecision.


                          Well, go ahead everyone! Your drawings are amazing!!!
