Custom Playing Card
Custom Playing Card
I did this playing card digitally using Inkscape. The card I was assigned was the Jack of Hearts. After much debate over how to complete this card I realized that my favouriteYoutubers' name is Jack, and he is known for playing a game where hearts paly a large role. It would fit the assignment perfectly. I did a cartoon version of him surrounded by the coloured hearts from the game. This card took around three hours to complete. I had hoped to get a bit more shading done but I was having some trouble with the computer program and didn't manage to get that done. I just layered the colours a bit more to compensate for the lack of actual shading, this was the only big change to my idea. I think this card was very successful. I was really happy with how it turned out. When I use Inkscape I will usually sketch out my first ideas on the program itself, this time I sketched it out on paper first and then scanned that into the computer. This really helped a lot and I learned how to layer my lines better to get smoother edges. This project was pretty rigorous because Inkscape is a rather difficult program to work with. I had to redo a lot of my work in order to get it exactly how I wanted.
