Ok for school I need to make a tarot deck. Luckily I don't need to draw it I just need to develop the over all design of the cards. I need someone that can draw in the same style consistently, preferably in a colored anime or realistic looking style. You may sign your work if you wish.

For all those interested I would need sample work. I have the design of 'The Hierophant' already in my head. A skeleton wearing a white robe with red trim holding a glowing papal cross. The background being dark and churchy.

Gimme details:
When's this due?
How many cards do you need to establish the "design"?
How much input do you want?

I'm up for this and I know the deck pretty well. I can hand draw then scan them into my computer.

My thoughts so far:
2 Major Arcana
4 Minor Arcana
2 of each Suit

Its due on the 30th of next month.

I talked with my teacher today and your list is fine, but i get extra credit if i do the whole deck (which i doubt you want to do).

I want a good amount of input but not limit your creative vision.

Nifty. Post your requests for which major, minor, and court cards you want and I'll get to to work. An entire deck may be possible, but with Mardi Gras, I may either lose or gain ground.

In the mean time, I'm finding some good cotton paper and a felt tip pen. I'm thinking that if I draw them right they could be watercolored or edited via computer, but as for now, a black and white scheme fits my idea.

ok

'The Hierophant': A skeleton wearing a white robe with red trim holding a glowing papal cross. The background being dark and churchy.

The Magician: A heavily tattooed man with the head of a Stag. The tattoos being a neon color(if colored) and looking 'magical' in origin.

The Chariot: A roman looking chariot being carried by horses whose manes are made of fire.

The Hanged Man: A man being hung at gallows, his eyes being blind folded. Background is of an abandoned modern city.

The Emperor: A evil looking dragon sitting on a thrown. Surrounded by treasure.

Working on other cards

UPDATE: Feeling super stupid about calling Minor Arcana and Suits by two names while they are really just one thing. Anywho, cards are coming along nicely, but I was a bit of a klutz and I have to redo The Hanged Man.

Ooh! This looks cool! I wish I had an assignment like that! (Or that I could draw...)

Could I see the cards once they're finished as well? Matter of interest. :D

But of course! I'll just scan them and post them here.

UPDATE: Should have scans by Saturday of the cards currently requested. Unfortunately, I have discovered my terrible inability to draw horses. I'm afraid your current idea for The Chariot is out of my realm. I can substitute other things though. In the mean time, I'll be sketching out The Lovers.
