"Called “Alexandre” on the French deck, probably after Alexander the Great. He holds a scepter in one hand, with a shield (?) just below it. He faces forward, a little to the right. On the English deck, he holds a sword in his hand, with an imperial orb just beside it (seemingly floating in air). He faces forward, a little to the left."

I'll try to add some animation later...
Hope you like.
 

Some inspiration:
This card / This other card / Spectral Souls / Inferno

I was trying to think of something smart-assy to say like "Shouldn't he have a club, not a sward," but that doesn't make any sense at all because the guy on the card...  The art looks great  XD

   Anyway, i'm glad you like the art itself.


user
AlexHW (Level 3 Private Eye) at 5/21/2009 12:49:56 PM

doesnt make me think of it as a 'clubs' representation.. just looks like a king. thus no vote here. good art though.


user

Good choice in colors and very nice character design. Makes the king look very badass.

best in your gallery, imo. love it.


user
jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 5/15/2009 2:38:06 PM

Not telling you to change anything, I do like it a lot. I ws just sayin' cuz the 'club' isn't clear.


user
Jinn (Level 11 Godfather) at 5/15/2009 11:30:28 AM

{ But, as you can see here, Jal, all those cards have the same amount of red.

   I think the "suit" of the card don't interferes in the colors of the char.


user
jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 5/15/2009 9:19:18 AM

I love this sprite but have a problem with it being sooooooo red because 'clubs' are black cards.


user
hyperbear (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/14/2009 5:57:10 PM

Very Fire Emblem-esque. Great job!


user
dumbo (Level 3 Private Eye) at 5/14/2009 4:59:32 PM

I love this piece on it's own. But I don't read "king of clubs" for some reason. Great piece though!!!


user
Jinn (Level 11 Godfather) at 5/14/2009 4:41:49 PM

{ Thanks a lot for all the comments and favs!
   I'm rly glad that you like! 

@Stickman He's holding both of them,
   I was planing to do the shield like Shiryu's one. [x] [x]

   but... I preferred thus.

TheInquisitor (Level 4 Shichikyu) at 5/14/2009 4:08:51 PM

This is a great entry. You're definitely the front runner at the moment. Morganne's is good, but too simplistic compared to this. It shows what great stuff can be made with such little available to you


user
Stratto (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 5/14/2009 3:12:24 PM

Reminds me of WoW for some reason. Great job


user
Stickman (Level 6 SWAT) at 5/14/2009 1:48:33 PM

That's nice. Is his hand holding the sword or shield? Nice colours by the way:)


user
Death-Auron (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/14/2009 1:44:44 PM

ya, got my vote for sure, lovable colors and the desgin, he looks imponing!. i even though on actually entering this one....

Well, this pushes my idea down the drain ;3 Great work, best one so far!
