innana, Your observation is valid. I screwed up, as I do with almost every project. Despite the attention to producing the detail in the first place, I can't seem to avoid messing something up in every deck. I think its a consequence of producing so many variables along the way before settling on a final version thats part of the problem. Constantly changing my mind, and changing back again. Then its a case of not seeing the forest for the trees. No excuse though.... sorry everyone.
Having said that, while it may be jarring, but thankfully its a textured decoration thats disguised somewhat by the folds of the cloth and overall busyness of the depiction, so I don't think it should be any cause for real confusion in a reading, after all the Knight in question is still generally correctly colored, (at least by my criterea of coloring the suites) he's splashing around in water, and holding a cup.....
This project was all about improvement, artistically, symbolically, conceptually and its gratifying to hear that it has won over so many of those who for whatever reasons had dismissed the original version. That was to a great extent my goal. And hopefully in the context of this overall set of images the detail you have referenced doesn't detract too much.
