Card At Work: 3 - Planning your Card Design


Hi folks! I released a new episode of Card at Work this week. This is my ongoing youtube series on graphic design and art direction for cards in tabletop games. This series is supported by patrons like you. Thank you!

In this episode, I discuss the process of planning your card design using basic Constants and Variables. Constants are the things that won't change from card to card, usually structural elements like positions and sizes of art, icons, and text spaces. Variables are the things that change within those constraints, like the actual images and text content.

Featured examples include:

Heir to Europa
Monsoon Market
Kodama: the Tree Spirits
Magic: the Gathering
Zeppelin Attack!
Koi Pond
Arf!
Solar Senate
Light Rail
