You showed me court art before that looked better than this.

LOSE the ancient, faux-aged look.  Make it look more like old paper stock, but like something the Victorians might have actually used in their era.  They wouldn't be using a dirty pack of cards left to the elements - think linen, cream-colored, antique laid paper, etc.  It would look so much better.

Make the letters and numerals in the indices LARGER, and perhaps a bit more bold as well.

I like the card back. Not at all a fan of the court I see, it's messy looking and the background with the aging thing going on is not working at all. I'm not a fan of false aging though, so it may just be me. I think the indices should be pushed out a bit a front fan of these as is would be pretty pointless. As Don suggested, enlarging them would be good too.

Nice start though for sure.  :)

I LOVE the AoS, and then I scrolled down to see the king, is that a werewolf face? I don't mean to be rude but there is something seriously wrong with the portrait and that scares me to wonder what the rests of the courts look like...the Ace is wicked cool though.
