    That's normally how my cards turn out, I just look up inspirational fantasy art and boom, I've got a new card. Or I'll just look up something more specific, like a fantasy rogue, and thinks like that.

    It's finding the actual artist that's difficult for me. Most of the time they say its like three different people.

    yeah same
    I only look for specific art if I'm doing a challenge or something or have a very specific idea
  • ShadowReignShadowReign
    That's usually the way it happens, but with what I'm doing, I know pretty much what I want from the cards, but can't find the art that fits them. In each of the art I want an Avatar (preferably, but I'm up for anything at this point) and some background, I want the art to be mostly gold, and I want them to be relatively the same design. However, I also really want to credit the artist(s).

    The hardest part for me is the flavor. How does the art match with the flavour text and abilities?

  • ShadowReignShadowReign
    I have a hard time finding room for flavor.
  • Zaheer_The_GrimZaheer_The_Grim
    I agree, sometimes the flavor can decide if a card is good or bad.

    Sweet timer, I guess randomly ending challenge periods won't be a thing anymore.  Better get some mystery boxes going or there won't be anything to judge.
