Star Wars Magic: The Gathering Cards

Fans of Magic: The Gathering are going to love this card set. WhinyTortoise created 285 Star Wars Magic: The Gathering cards and every single one is awesome. I love the artwork more than the art on actual Magic cards.

This deck has it’s own artwork and mechanics based on Star Wars. For instance, the Jedis have a “Meditation” ability, which lets players return cards to their hands. “Repair” allows your droids to cast their cards repeatedly even after leaving play. There are other mechanics aside from those too. If you are interested, there is a print sheet in pdf form. It appears to be fully playable although I doubt it has been play tested. This looks like a fun version of the game.

Lord Of The Rings Characters As Tarot Cards

DeviantArt user SceithAilm has illustrated a series of stunning tarot cards depicting different characters from the Lord of the Rings. Gandalf, Aragorn, Arwin, Sam, Pip, and Merry are all here, along with others, all on tarot cards that match their personalities.

I love the style. These are just gorgeous. These characters fit perfectly in a tarot card deck and they capture the spirit of the book perfectly. I think that the illustrator intends to continue adding more characters over time and I am looking forward to seeing all of them as they arrive.
