an alternate version of the Queen of Swords card with a pose the model liked better. Definitely looking for opinions here. Which feels more detached?

Queen of Swords
by mav • • 18 Comments
Yet another tarot card complete. I think Yara was perfect for my Queen of Swords. She had just the right mix of sex appeal and sophistication. When I found out she was a belly dancer as well, I knew exactly where I wanted to take this card. I modified the illustration processing technique slightly from what I did with the Jack of Swords card, and I think I’m pleased with the results. Its a little less comic booky than my original technique. I think it lends more of a fantasy look. The question is, should I stick with it? Should I change the Jack to look like this as well or should I allow some variance of style between cards of the same suit?
Opinions welcome and encouraged.

More shots from the Yara photoshoot I did on Thursday. I’m quite pleased with that shoot. I think I got a nice set out of it.
In this one I was trying some other photo processing techniques. Closer to what I’m doing with the Staff cards. I was going for kind of a "300" feel to it.

Had a photoshoot with Yara, a model that I met on Model Mayhem on Thursday. She’s my Queen of Swords for the Tarot Deck. Even though I only needed one shot for the Tarot set, I got a bunch of good ones of her. These are some of my favorites.

This won’t mean anything to most people (and 10 points to you if you do get the reference), but this one, more than any other just has a Hyrkanian feel to it. But the pose and facial expression weren’t quite right for the feel I was going for with the Queen of Swords card. Still, I like it, so I wanted to get it posted as well.

I love how her stomach is featured in this one, and with the sword on her head (even though she isn’t balancing it), this pic just really said belly dancing to me.
