Beautiful stuff.


Digging the new Hallows winter concept art. Both odd and interesting how the summer-ish one and Hallows scene use the same exact composition. Makes the represented divisions feel, as in - on equal footing/equally matched, yet distinctly different from each. Like races in an RTS. Starcraft's Terran, Zerg, and Protoss are (supposed to be) equally matched, yet are complete different from one another.


This post, showing the mysterious Hallows division silhouettes - it's painfully inconsistent that "Diablo" has inner gradients but the others do not.
Depending on how much of the character's design you want to give away, I highly recommend consistently using either means of painting a mysterious shadowy silhouette.


How are you coming up with all the cool names for each card?
Names are tough.


. . .
Thank you so much for your kind comments! Regarding your comments about the isometric painting, there will be some aspects of the game where we will be combining both iso and top down perspectives in the game. This will provide you with more options for exploration as other games such as Diablo have done in the past. Your orthographic project sounds interesting, what is it about?
. . .
Wish I could expound. But at this time, I cannot. SSSSHHHHHHHHH

Thanks Mathias!

You're spot on about the composition! That's exactly what we have been going for with the divisions. We plan to do a couple more to represent the other divisions as well. I really like your Starcraft analogy as well

Regarding the silhouettes, all the cards have a subtle gradient to them, however the guardian cards (always the card revealed at the end on the far right) will always have something special designed into them. It was intentional to set it apart as they are more powerful.

And names, wooh! a procedure in itself. We go through so many variants to try and tie in the characters title.. Very intuitive process. But we enjoy doing it nonetheless!

A dying world, plagued by the premise of a raging star which stands close to destruction. Will you save it?

Card releases of the first four Divisions. Who do you pledge your allegiance to?
