Hey guys, long time lurker first time poster!
A few friends and I have come together to make a card game and I have drawn the graphic-y straw! We're trying to make something akin to Legend of the 5 Rings or Netrunner, not something like Poker or anything with playing cards. We've got a set amount of information to place on our cards and we wanted them to have a unique design to them. There are loads of programs that let you copy Magic the Gathering or Legend of the 5 Rings cards but we wanted to do something different.
All I am asking is just more of a push in the right direction from you more wizened folks. I have no idea how to approach this really. I have some chops in graphic design but still no understanding of how to go about designing the layout of the card and making it into a finished product.
This isn't going to be a commercial thing just a private project for the few of us involved.
Thank you for helping me if you can, I will post any information you guys need that I might have left out. I apologize I am a bit excited about doing this thing.
