Adobe Illustrator CS5
This is my back design for the www.TheCardist.net custom playing card contest. I always liked the simple yet complex etched design on the back of playing cards. I wanted to keep that same feel but add my touch of macabre and dark humor.

Dyrt did it again. :)
Aug 27th, 2011 ReplyI have a question though. Why didn't you enclose the skeleton inside the gear?
Dyrt
when it's small the eyes ribs and tailbone lose definition. I might move the skeleton up a little though so he's more inside the gear.

Gotcha Dyrt. I see that that is Vitruvius, that's why I asked.
Aug 27th, 2011 ReplyA feature well-deserved. But that doesn't concern you now, does it? You must win the contest.

Thank you, I always appreciate the features I get, and winning would be awesome but I'm always just happy to get such nice comments and recognition.
