Animation Previews: Illusions, Minor Arcana + Spellslot Holder Preview
over 3 years ago – Sat, Oct 17, 2020 at 10:08:22 PM

Illusions

Illusions are slated to be done by the end of November! Animations are coming along great, here's a couple of our favorites.

Medusa
Red Dragon
Veteran
Archmage & Mage Apprentice

Minor Arcana

This set is taking longer to animate as we're really trying to be considerate with the message and how people will want to use the cards. As for the writing for the book, it's currently being edited and we'll be able to share it soon!

Queen of Coins
King of Coins
Ace of Coins WIP

Note: having export issues with the following gifs to show properly on Kickstarter :/ 

Ace of Cups WIP
Ace of Swords WIP
Ace of Wands WIP

 Spellslot Holder Preview

Hot off the presses we have a video from the manufacturer about how the Spellslot holders are coming along! When we get an update on the acrylic pegs and board, we'll be sure to share them.
