9 of Swords: The Torturer
The man being broken on the wheel was the original version, but it was so brutal I ended up drawing a rack as an alternate. It ended up supplanting the original in the sets I released into the wild, because it's better.
It does not look like I will have the energy to finish shading this guy tonight, so here you go.
7 of Swords: The Hooded Man
There's four suits: Swords, Stars, Coins, and Glyphs. You can use a regular deck of cards instead, with 1-10 of Spades, Clubs, Diamonds, and Hearts standing in for the previously mentioned suits respectively. Face cards stand in for the Fortuna Magna.
5 of Swords: The Black Rider
After the effort I put into this one, I think I just plain forgot to make a gunpowderless version of this. Before making these, I looked up dimensions for Tarot cards and the like and then drew them 150% the size of that and then scaled them down.
4 of Swords: The Hound
The lines, text, and symbols on all of these were drawn on paper, with minor edits. Digital work includes the colors, some adjustments such as removing flubbed lines, centering images, or swapping out messed up symbols and circles.
3 of Swords: The Three Soldiers
One of the other goals of the variants was to create a set more appropriate for a medieval fantasy setting rather than the 18th Century settings common in Ravenloft. This will become more apparent with the Fortuna Magna.
2 of Swords: The Knight in Armor
There's only 54 cards in the set, but I ended up making 80 for reasons I'll reveal later. The extra cards are variants, like the unhelmeted knight below. That's Morgana, my first ever BG player character that's stuck with me ever since.
First up, the back of the cards. I made three variants before settling on the one in the screenshot. Because whether the card is right-side-up or not matters when interpreting its meaning, the backs are pixel perfect mirrors along the horizontal axis, including the texture.
@iliveonthe @NewWorldHominin Dude, everyone thinks UKIP is far right save for those on the right fringes:
