Amazing artwork of Cyrus and Valkira as well! Looking forward to see more!

Thank you for the kind words everyone

I definitely have more projects on my plate, including a couple more commissions and a few passion projects as well! More to come soon (hopefully).

He's not a fool, but here's Nathan as The Fool:

I literally weep at how good this is. Seriously. I keep wondering how you can top each one as you put them out, and then suddenly, you prove to me that not only can it be done, but you can do so masterfully.

Nathan is quite accurate as being The Fool

I agree completely! The meaning of the card is like someone was literally describing him.

Also that art is amazing and I love it. I've told you this already but it bears repeating in a place where the comment will be saved for posterity.

I really want this deck of cards.....

Latest commission, it's Rania as the Moon arcana!

Like with all the other cards I've done so far, I wanted to mix elements of the original tarot card with more fantasy elements native to the FR setting that our characters exist in. FR's moon has an asteroid cluster trailing her called the Tears of Selune. I thought it would be interesting to have the card's perspective be from the Tears themselves, and have them serve as a sort of stand in for the road/path leading into the horizon from the original tarot card. Rania's profile takes the place of the face in the moon from the original card.

An alternate color scheme I was fiddling with:

As I told you; I love this. It's so her; that following the unknown path and having pure faith and trust in the moon to guide her. Even the Tears perspective is perfect, as she often tells the fable of how they were formed to people. Outstanding yet again <3

This looks great! Very haunting. I love the Selune's Tears theme.

That looks great! Love the Selune's Tears element there.

Simply beautiful, yet again! <3

New Commission! Mi-Le, as the World!
https://www.biddytarot.com/tarot-card-m ... ana/world/

The world card is one of accomplishment, travel, completion and integration. I thought it would be the most fitting for Mi-Le for a few reasons: Mi-Le has done a lot and traveled a lot in his life. I also get the impression that he is very at one with himself and if he hasn't attained spiritual enlightenment, he is at least close to it.

In his card, I have him balancing between two worlds, one grounded and down to earth and the other in the sky and sort of lofty. His right foot rests on the world on the bottom, representing the travel he's done. His right hand reaches for the world in the sky, representing his aspirations of enlightenment. Despite the challenging pose, Mi-Le has achieved balance (another aspect of the original tarot card).

The original World Arcana features four figures (an angel, an eagle, a bull and a lion) in the corners of the card; I couldn't figure out a way to incorporate them naturally, but as they were intended to represent (among other things) the four elements, I chose to represent the elements through the background:
- Sunlight pours down on Mi-Le from above, representing fire. The color of the leaves also suggest it.
- Waterfalls cascade in the distance, representing water.
- The cliffs and the world beneath Mi-Le's feat represent earth.
- The wind (as depicted in the bend of the trees and the leaves blowing past) represents air.

Angevere already did a meditative Mi-Le that is so amazingly good, but it made me want to do something different, so Mi-Le's pose comes from me wanting to show his mastery of the martial arts and to have him in something more kinetic.

Wow that looks great!
