I would say that if this is going to be for commercial publication an additional Lovers card would be in order. Don't ya' think?
Oooh, black and white, I approve! Making the scythe stand out a wee bit more couldn't hurt though to make it more clear it's the Death card- It's kind of receding into the ground and harder to pick out.Egypt Urnash said:
Really, the traditional Tower imagery only says 'tragedy/divine wrath' at several removes, to me; I'm surprised my cursory searching hasn't turned up anyone else making it more visceral by borrowing the WTC attack.
There's this one line in Tim Powers' book "Last Call" about how a set of very very potent Tarot cards just kinda sear images into your soul when you look at them. If I can draw a few cards that do that, I think I'll have succeeded in this task.
