2.88 new card art

[Arcanes]

(as revealed by GDC on the shoutbox)

If we have time before the official Fatesrelease... pls!!... a little photoshop work can fix this "paint eye shine" effect in the horse x.x
The art is not bad, but the shine looks like a work from a kindergarden kid

Really consistent art with the card effect, i love it *-*
Soothjaw ability allways sound like a "Wulven nigromant" or something like

Looks great, and looks like a protector... i was thinking in a switch with Riphide should be nice but looking in detail, this looks really like the Wulven Protector...
So lets look for other solution for Riphide Art :3

Aaaand this is the only really problem that i see in the new arts... doesnt look really like the FATTY wulven that we found in Riphide...
I was testing in photoshop, maybe just a Zoom is sufficient for improve the effect of power :3

This 2 cards look really awesome for me =) and Pithing Spear is working really cool in some Logan tests :v

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND:

LMAO, i love that we have too funy cards xD!

Really ty for the job to every dev and designer =)

Are you saying Oliver Fagin look[s] like [a] cartoon character...?

Actually I searched for this thread just to state my appreciation for the upgrade to Fagin's art. I don't like Reverberate or Frying Pan, but Fagin now looks very good, and I also like his art's congruence with his character and ability.

cartoony art has always been prevalent.

Present, but not prevalent, in SE--fortunately.

I think the thing that throws people is that of all the sets SF has the most artists working on it, which leads to a greater disparity in style.

I agree, and this is jarring. I hope SE follows L5R, probably the second-most successful CCG, in eschewing the cartoon style. But I think SF has generally been a step in the right direction. I could name many cards as evidence (maybe the majority), but will mention:

Zailen Crusader
Corpse Shifter
Yari Shieldbearer
Shriek of Revulsion
Widespread Decay

And all of Eve Ventrue's cards, like

Hunter's Gambit
Eriss Fateweaver
Irina, Guardian of the Swan
Sword Thief
Eleanor, Princess of Ellos
etc.

It's funny, I was just thinking about the missing card art today? I mean, I am pretty sure it's been long enough that Wulven could release a minor update with the rest of art.

SF has been in beta for a very long time and I think we are overdue from a "state of SE address" by Kyle.. or at least GDC.
