I’m building a brand-new trading card game and need fifty completely original, hand-drawn illustrations—absolutely no A.I. or stock assets. The visual direction is bright, playful, and distinctly cartoonish. Every card will feature an animal character, and I plan to mix types across the set, so you can expect a spread of wild beasts, domestic favorites, and eye-catching sea creatures. What I need from you • 50 full-color illustrations, one per card, sized for standard TCG print (63×88 mm) at 300 DPI • Transparent PNGs plus the layered source files (PSD, Clip Studio, or Procreate) • Consistent line weight, palette harmony, and a bit of personality in each pose so the deck feels cohesive • Confirmation that all artwork is 100 % original, with no AI assistance and no third-party assets I’ll supply a simple brief for each animal—species, rough attitude, and any signature props or background motifs—so you have creative starting points without being boxed in. Milestones can be split in batches of ten cards to keep feedback tight and progress clear. When you reply, please link or attach 3-5 samples that show a similar cartoonish style, especially of animals, so I can see how your line work and color choices fit the game’s mood. Looking forward to bringing these characters to life together!

Hi, I understand you need 50 completely original hand drawn animal illustrations for a playful cartoon style TCG deck, with no AI and no stock assets. I can create full color animal characters with consistent line weight, bright palette harmony, expressive poses, and a cohesive style across the full card set. I’m comfortable working in batches of 10 cards so feedback stays organized, and I can follow your brief for each animal while adding personality and charm to every design. Final delivery can include transparent PNGs at 63 × 88 mm, 300 DPI, plus layered PSD, Clip Studio, or Procreate source files. All artwork will be created from scratch and prepared for TCG print use.
