What a fantastic project.
I do see your point. It's just that the cards keep shouting "constant ratios" and "symmetries" at me so loudly that I can't not respect that
You could trace the basic design and then draw the rest by hand. That's what I would do.I do see your point. It's just that the cards keep shouting "constant ratios" and "symmetries" at me so loudly that I can't not respect that And I like the thought that the people who created the mamluk cards in the first place might have done the same if the technical tools had been available back then. Pure speculation of course.
What a fantastic project.
Actually, the beauty of hand-drawn cards (for me) is in the slight asymmetry that adds a human touch to it. If you've seen early Marseilles decks, you know what I mean. It adds character to the cards, makes them living pictures rather than computer-generated patterns. So, do consider it as an option.

But I like the reproductions you've done.
This is so beautiful and neat. If you're going to improve it even further, it's going to be breathtaking.
this is very, very, very very beautiful
these are just my two cents
all the traces of these working fine, once you've drawn, retocalos with a digital pen, to give a touch of handmade, do not hesitate to break them or that they are not very proijos, that will give the touch of fact by hand
on the card when you made this, have a layer above the blue bands to work (you can regularle transparency) and make writing strokes in gold above.
