Quick mock-up of a Role Playing Card Game card.

I know I said that I wouldn’t play around with my role playing card game (RPCG) until I finished up my revision of In Between, but I just couldn’t help myself. Here is a mock-up of what one of the Persona Cards might look like. I think I’ve missed my true calling in life: art.  Apart from the terrible art and questionable graphic design skills...
