Fool (0), the Maiden fool.
Mostly Illustrator, except for the scans of my pencils.The pale cyan is a placeholder for Interesting Printing Processes; the final card will be entirely black and white except for the glint of color in one camera eye's reflection.

Having three Fools in the deck started as a pisstake on the way some printings of the Crowley/Harris deck fill out two otherwise-unused cards with abandoned versions of the Magician, whose final version is kind of a caricature of Crowley. Me? I ain't know all-knowing Magician, I'm just this crazy Fool.
Oh, wow, this one came out really well. I saw the most of the rest of your deck on Deviantart and on the site you set up for the deck, and I love your take on them. The cards you added and the ones where you changed the themes around are especially amazing.
The fool seems to be a fun card, but then it is the beginning of a lot of things (it seems to me, not that I know all that much about Tarot cards). The background here is interesting, it looks like either a laser striking the cliff, a skewed perspective or like she's leaping haphazardly into a digital future. Any or all of those could be wrong, but I really like that so much can be drawn out of your cards.

No, I'm filling in the last few gaps. If you go look at the deck's page you'll see a few cards with placeholder thumbnails; I've got to get all of those filled in the next month and a half because that's my deadline with the publisher!
