Hey, thought I'd answer directly with my own account.

The style of the hero artworks was initially chosen by me to have synergy with Splinterlands artworks, as the game was initially called Splinter Royale and the unit artworks would match with the Heroes and would also fit within the world of Splinterlands. Was actually a lot of extra work we put on our table by doing it like that and now it looks a bit like we didn't choose our own style. Welp :D

For the future, we'll go a different route of course.

The card frame was already redone once, based on a bunch of research. The goal was to have simplicity and put a focus on the card artwork.

With this said, happy to chat more about this and thank you for the offer. You can reach me on discord: wolfonchain
