ATTN: Photos, need them!

[Ashe]

Okay, folks!

I'm asking again. The cards that I am making for Shadowmoor--the playing cards-- cannot be finished unless I have photos. I know who some of you are and can find images of you rather quickly, but some of you I either do not know well, or have never met in play. So I'm asking again, photos please. I'd like to have something done by feast so that you may see what to expect when it's all finished.

Here's a list of people I have and can draw right now: Angel (Jen Pawley?), Deacon (Bear), Zedd (Steven Caldwell), Kalei (Deb), Rax (Mike), Ryll (Ava), Mela (Ava), Syl (Ace), Velgas (Patrick), Afsoon (Mitzi), Daemien (Dan Kelly), Karn (Todd), Mieri (Shana), Chandella (Nancy), Oneiric (David), Somnus (Roger), Macavoy (david), Antino (Pierre), Amethyst (Jessica), Vun (Randy), Stine (Andrew), Tink (Patrick), Triar (Patrick) Neckol (Jeff Bauer), Lirael (Ellie), Stone Branch (pretty tree), Napkin (Eric), Sir Ash (Chris Lynch), Kin (Timothy), Binkey (James), Aliph (Johnie), Valara (Lennon), Morgos (Kevin), Remmi (Remmi), Jade (Casey), Serat (Keith), Smiling Jack (Roger).

People or rather characters I cannot: Teska, Faethaz, Ellura (unseelie and Sylvan), Baltana, Riaken, Gannon, Morear, Owen (Russ), Syron, Aleos, Cado, Osprel, Khazzad, Maximus.

If I don't get a good image from folks, I'll bump you and replace you with another person that I do. I'm sorry to be so blunt about it, but I'd like to get cracking on this.
Thanks you guys! See you in August and please get back to me via PM on the boards, Facebook, or email me @ mnemesyne737@yahoo.com

i thought rock was supposed to be something

[Ashe]

I'm going off my old list that I have here lying at the house. However there will be a new deck after I do this one so maybe then, okay? I swear if you aren't in this one then there will be another one.

[Vun]

Mcavoy is David Shumpert, Morear is Adam Shumpert

[Ashe]

Thanks Randy, that helps some.  Morear has the green markings all over? I might be able to do from memory if it is.

[Ava]

heh...Osprei(with an I, not an L) is another PC of mine...though she hasn't been played in years, and last I checked there were no photos of her.  Send me a PM to let me know what you need, and I'll see if I can't throw together enough costume/makeup to give you a reference shot.

[Ashe]

Thanks, lady.

I'll have some ready for next event.

Ashe,
I know you have been working on this for a  while and I saw you are planning on a second deck.
Might I suggest that you look at possibly making a Tarot deck instead of a playing card deck?
A tarot deck has more cards ( 4 suites (swords, wands, cups, and pentacles) or Minor Arcana 
2- Ace for each suit. So 52 Minor Arcana cards, plus 22 Major Arcana cards such as The Magician,
The Fool, The Hanged Man, Death, the Sun, ex...) and interesting meanings behind each card. 
A Tarot deck also lends itself more to illustrations and visual storytelling because each card has
an individual meaning.

Just a thought 

Also yes Morear is the ghizat with green markings (Macavoy has gold markings)
 I'll try to get you a photo of the costume and markings pattern if you want

-grin- I actually got distracted while packing a few months back and worked out what the Shadowmoor equivalents to the Major Arcana would be, based on meanings...and what the suits should be.  For example, Swords for fighters, Coins for rogues, Potions(instead of cups) for earth casters, Wands for celestial casters.

[Ashe]

@Yeshua: I have to make adjustments to the list. There are reasons for it and I will explain them to you if necessary, but my list is slightly different than that list.
@Adam and Ava: Thanks! I may do that. After I actually finish this one. Procrastination for the win. -not- I would appreciate photos. I have one of Macavoy but not of Morear. Any and all pictures of anyone would be helpful.

[Vun]

pm me an e-mail and i can send some of vun and lirael

[Andrew L.]

see i knew rock had won one of the cards

[Ashe]

I have found no pictures of Adarock. If you have any gimme one that I can use (ie, not a distance shot) and I'll fix that. Otherwise, you're bumped.

[Andrew L.]

Yeah theres one on jessica greens facebook i can send you
