Schism - Full Tabletop game

Schism

First iteration of the logo, focused on having an strong font that deliver the message of the type of game we're making!

After choosing the main typo for the logo, I started with the design around it, because it was a tabletop game focused on the fantasy and "The other side" of "Life", we wanted to show that kind of magic and mysticism in the logo.

Final result on the logo, after many changes of colors and many revisions, this is our result, this marked the style for the entire game that we were about to create.

Cards, here we were considering the option to add illustration to each card, after many talks we decided to leave the illustrations aside for a future expansion, probably to be as a reward on the kickstarter campaign.

This was the result on the cards, we focused on showing the mechanic that the card has and the value of the card.

Card back, this were the first sketches for it, we wanted to emphasize the magic touch on it with some ornaments for it's design.

Card back, In the first talks we thought of having the logo of the game in each card back, but it was kinda repetitive, so we decided to use the circle inside the logo as a secondary logo for the game, very happy with this result!

The Traveller - Set of cards.
Each character has their own color and their own deck of cards.

The Traveller - Character design for this biker from heaven, one of my favorite from the set I made.

First sketches on The Traveller

The Harbinger - Set of cards

The Harbinger. I play a lot with this lighting, love the result on it

First sketches of The Harbinger

The Reaper - Set of cards

The Reaper

Fisrt sketches of the reaper, in the first talks we had him with a Scythe, but we dropped this because the main goal of this charater was not be a Grim Reaper

The Watcher - Set of cards

The Watcher

This character was super fun to start witht he sketch, deciding if we wanted a gargoyle or something different to him be crouching on.

After some color iteration you can see we added the wings, he was missing that kind of mysticism, even the position of the wings were important to us to share more of his personality.

The Saint - Set of cards

The Saint is by far my favorite character on this set, the lighting was a big joy for me to work on, love the result on this one!

First sketches of The Saint

The Scholar - Set of cards

The Scholar

On The Scholar, the main goal was to have this character shown by his interested by the knowledge, so the third option was the winner!

Here you can see that the little demon was a late addition to the main sketch, and on the lighting, the book was our focus, showing the important of the source of wisdom for The Scholar

Board - Because this game was directed to show a war between the "Life" side and "The Other Side" we wanted to show that on the board and using the mechanic that the player move from one side to the other, we made a mirror of the top view of the city.

Love the type of view we decided for this board, not an entirely top view to give a little more of depth to the board and not to have a flat design on our board.

Box art

Front and back of the box

Illustration - Box art, love this one a lot, It was a big challenge decide what to illustrate, because it's one of the first contact that the potential player has with the game and it has to make a great impact on them to pick up the game from the shelves

First sketches for the box art, trying some different approach to the illustration, the we decided that the more basic side view encounter by this 2 characters was the ideal option for the box.

Creation process - the lighting on this illustration was a challenge for me, try to manage different point of lighting without losing control of it wasn't easy, but I like a lot the final result!
