I am by no means not a racists, i make those cards because i have interest to use photoshops to make something. If you are offended by my work, i am deeply sorry.

Back Side

Adolf Hitler

If you think i did a good job, please reply to this topic, this is the only power to encourage me to make more. My next target is winston churchill.

#2

i am also thinking on who to use on jokers. Please help me out:)

#3

101th airborne

#4

PS: can someone help me with the backside, i think it really needs fine tune, thanks.

#5

I dont think that is a good idea to include a swastika in the cards.:rolleyes:

#7

yeah, that is exactly what i plan to do! Except the joker part, i probably would just find some funny pics from ww2.

#8

In that case you might want to use the war variant of the blutfahne, it have a smaller swatika.

#9

Thanks, i might consider using that instead!

#12

I cant stand it when games or whatever WW2 related doesnt have the swastika. Takes away from the realism. Yet instead of the normal version the one PK posted would be better!

Aces: 101th airborne, Waffen SS, (British special group), (Russian special group)

What i want the order to be

If you need pictures of those objects, person there is plenty in the forum, just make some search.

For the Bismarck Ill suggest the color gallery of the main page.

#16

I dont need the pictures, i just want to know what you think of the arrangements:)

#17

I think is a good display FW.

#18

yeah, my point is i dont know what to fill in for the rest of the numbers.

#19

  1. Why arent the Aces the leaders? In most games the ace is the high card. Maybe make them the leaders or the flags of that country.

  2. Maybe get off the idea of just 4 main suits. Go for as many as you can. Therefore when you sit down to play the game you have more countries to choose from. So a set of US, GB, Germany, USSR, France, Japan, China, Italy…etc

#20

US for instance

  1. Statue of liberty
  2. Common pic of ppl something patriotic ppl working the war effort
  3. Liberty Ships
  4. Jeep
  5. M3 Half Track
  6. US marines … landing somewhere
  7. US Army…Airborne or Ranger
  8. Sherman Tank
    10.P51 Mustang
    J. USS Yorktown
    Q. Patton
    K. FDR
    A. US Flag or put the flag on the reverse side and make this something like Flag raising on Iwo Jima.

Hope this helps

That is a great idea, however, i have a few issues
1.) Why do we need the statue of liberty, it is a great building, but what does that has do with ww2?

2.) IMO, i think i will put USS yorktown as Q and Patton as J. Since ships are always referred as her. Q should be ideal for ships

3.) the reason i put K on leaders is because k means kings:P I want a group of ww2 aces on the same number, what better number to put than Aces?:slight_smile:

Anyways, thanks for your opinion, i definately think about that.

Last but not the least, can you give me an honest opinion on my work? Thanks
