Re: RAVN IIII
Love the ambigram, don't like the back... 
. Seems like the first RAVNs that I won't get. Dunno, I expected something else when he released the info of the redesign. Let's see what he did to the jokers and the ace of spades.

Re: RAVN IIII
I asked him the same thing on Patreon. His response is "IV or IIII in this case is just matter [sic] of symmetry. Both work as roman numerals....just aestheticsAzid wrote:btw. why ist this IIII instead of IV in roman numerals ?
"Additionally, if you think about it, using IIII vs. IV works a lot better with a two-way back and/or an ambigram.

Re: RAVN IIII
He'll do it anyways so it is not a secret revealed. But I would leave it up to him, since I don't know his personal stance on that topic.
I know that Gio said he doesn't mind it, if Patreons share infos. But Gio =/= Lorenzo .

Re: RAVN IIII
I guess until Lorenzo finalises his designs you could be sharing something that will never be. Plus although it wouldn't bother me, you may upset other Patrons who are paying for the privilidge of seeing Lorenzo's artwork evolve I guess.Eric Lee wrote:Can and should Patreons post the AoS and Jokers Lorenzo ?

Re: RAVN IIII
"The first two letters of Jupiter would often be written as IV because curved letters are hard to cut into stone. Therefore some people thought it was sacrilegious to use IV."
Lorenzo is obviously a devout Jupiter worshipper and we shouldn't question his beliefs.

Re: RAVN IIII
I cant wait to see Raven 27 - "IXVXI" You know he will do it. Then again, he could have done 2020 as "XMMX" or "MXXM" instead of "MMXX"
I like how he adds little details if you look closely. Like the II he used for his Gemini deck at the base of the spade and the cat napping on the piano.

For those that like being involved, I would highly suggest becoming a Patreon - even at the $2 level. He actually listens to comments and ideas from people and you see how it develops and changes. Here is how a simple comment I made changed how that As looks, albeit in a very minor fashion. I am by NO MEANS an artist or claim to be...I usually just make a small comment if something looks a bit off to my eye...but he listens to feedback and you see it grow.Harvonsgard wrote:Still on the fence.

Re: RAVN IIII
Yep, but even though it doesn't show it, Lorenzo had already moved the Raven and his perch down from the top near the roof to where he is now. But the hanging light/crystal was still hanging (on a much shorter string) above the geometric star. That didn't look right to me and with all the now-empty space near the roof where the raven used to be it just seemed logical. Lorenzo agreed!Decknowledgy wrote:So it was you!!
