Back Of the card design

The back design is one of the most important aspects of a set of playing cards. I do want to highlight the inspiration behind it. I knew I had to make my design special. The back of the deck was all centered around the hand tattoo of WWE superstar Finn Balor. The tattoo is titled “The Boy Who Came Back from Space.” The design itself stood out to

me and was the inspiration behind my color choices and art style. I did take some of my own creative liberties when revising the design. But ultimately the idea of creating this style was based on how captivating this tattoo art is to me.
