Some more WIP art for the wormhole suit. Poll for alpha and omega cards.

Hello all of you fine folks,

I've refined the court cards for the wormhole suit and wanted to get some feedback on the alpha/omega cards.

First up is the king, which has a new item: shuffled/cardistry cards.

The queen is pretty similar to what has already been shown off, with a few minor improvements.

The Jack has a few minor modifications, but largely hasn't changed.

Let me know if you have any thoughts on the court cards. I think I'm pretty close to calling them final, but still welcome any feedback.


Now for the alpha and omega card. This is where I need some help picking a direction to stick with. The concept behind these cards for the wormhole suit is that they represent the two ends of the wormhole.

I originally wanted them to be mirror images of each other, because I liked the idea that they were both entrances and exits of the wormhole with no real directionality. As was reasonably pointed though, this made the cards really easy to mix up as they looked nearly identical. Ultimately, usability is paramount so I made this this version, which further distinguishes the two cards:

V had the suggestions to add something to the design that would help highlight the fact that they are two ends of a connected wormhole. I spent awhile playing around with the idea and I struggled to come up with anything I was happy with. I think the busyness of the hex spiral makes it tough to put something (such as a space ship) on top of it without it looking a bit sloppy. That said, it did make me want to take a step back and try another possible option to help gut check if things were on the right track.

Here is another possible direction things could go:

Rather than a wormhole face on, this one is a bit more "traditional." (which is a weird way to describe a drawing of a wormhole.) As far as V's original suggestion, this design allows for including something going through the wormhole a bit easier:

I included a poll. Let me know If you have a preference for the hex spiral, sideways wormhole, or sideways wormhole w/ spaceship. If you have any thoughts not conveyed by a simple poll, please do share them in the comments!
