Lordy. That has to be the strangest method of soliciting feedback I've ever, and I mean ever, come across! You should at least pretend to want people's honest opinions. 😀 Anyway, for me, it's gotta be number one, the book or scroll is an important part of the card, don't you think?

Maybe it got lost in translation. But as I said before, not interested, and I see nothing wrong with my request, if and when I'm interested in hearing someone's opinion I will ask for it. But anywho. Yes, I do feel a closer connection to the first image. I thought the one with two moons was a good fit, but with the scroll, it ties a little bit to the original image of the H.P.
fire cat pickles Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) The more subtle eyeball in the first image is much better. In the second image it really creeps me out. But I like the crescent moon in the second image rather than the two crescents in the first image, and that the scroll confuses me a little bit... So, I'd say a combination of the two. ETA: Let me elaborate: Yes, the scroll is important but you have the cross, which theologically, is the Word, so it's not really needed. And aesthetically it is covering up the cross and so for me there is too much going on in the middle. It would break up the space in the center of the card. Just my two cents.

Decan Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 I would say the first one for me because of the wicca vibe (with the 2 crescent moons).

Decan Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 I don't think someone already created a X-Files Tarot, but I'm not sure because in the Tarot world we can already find everything!!

gregory Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) The first. But I can't tell you why because a large part of my issue IS with the art work.... Edited January 9, 2021 by gregory

Mi-Shell Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 Sorry; I am with "neither" ... and since i am not allowed to tell you, why......

That says a lot about the art: No where was I asking for any type of endorment, so don't! I was asking which between the two stands out, and why?

NA01 Posted January 10, 2021 Author Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) Ok, so some said the first image. I will post the first H.P. on here (with some creative notes), and let you advise what it needs and such. That was all... Edited January 10, 2021 by jayrrivera01
NA01 Posted January 10, 2021 Author Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) I've gone ahead and decided to keep this image. I do want to incorporate elements from the R.W.'s H.P. I want to make room for the B&W pillars somewhere, and actually wanted her eyes opened, but there is some mystical thing about her eyes being closed. I was thinking of making the background a sky blue and removing the cross. What elements would you think fit in this image? Edited January 10, 2021 by NA01

Wanting to know "why", but only if nothing critical is said, IS fishing for compliments. And endorsements.

Presently when you look at what happens (often) on Kickstarter and "what works" (regarding the campaign, for divination it's something else maybe), I would say the weirder the better! 🙂 We already have had the Dinosaures de Marseille for example; maybe it will be the Sola Busca of the future (God only knows!) 🤣 My Sun is Aquarius, so I should be wild about everything "avant-garde"? Actually not really, but well, another story... Edited January 10, 2021 by Decan
