Card Game - Ritual Card Template

Project type

Vector art

Date

2013

My pal Noel and I are huge fans of the makeup & sfx competition show Face Off, so we decided to make a just-for-fun fan cardgame based on it. Ritual cards are a combination of Yu-Gi-Oh's Ritual Spells and Fusion monster types: like the former, you have to play a specific card to to summon the Ritual Makeup; like the latter, you have to use certain combinations of specific Makeups to bring out the uber-powerful Ritual Makeup.
The Ritual Makeups have very high stats and great abilities, balanced out by having a four-card cost to bring them to the field. They're based on the Makeups done in the Seaons 5 Judge Challenge, where the Judges collaborate with their choice of seasoned contestants from the show in a head-to-head fight. There could certainly be other Ritual Makeups too, though we haven't determined any smiley
Obviously, the aesthetic here is inspired by occult transmutation arrays, like in Fullmetal Alchemist. I've always found arrays to be very cool. I went with seven sides/points to make it feel more arcane and complex. The repeating symbols represent the Alchemy Makeup's different types!
