I've been working on a multiverse Transformers tarot deck, loosely based on the Universal Waite Tarot. Some of the cards are pretty obviously modeled on their counterparts, while I've had to make some a little different. Regardless, I'm doing my best to keep my cards true to their original meanings.
Right now, I'm working on the Major Arcana. It's an ongoing project, and it will keep me busy for a while. After I finish with the Major, I'll see if I'm up to tackling the Minor Arcana... which is more than 50 cards, so we'll see.
I'm not necessarily adding these in order because I'm not creating them in order. I do them as I feel up to them.
I don't really consider myself an artist, but I do put a lot of time and thought into each of these. I draw each card out on paper first, then scan them into my computer to trace and color them. The lettering/numbering I'm using is Maximal Cybertronix.
If you have any questions about my reasoning for a card, or any questions in general, feel free to ask them. Additionally, if you have any suggestions for other cards, I'd be glad to hear them.
