I haven't listed this yet. Not quite sure if I will. Might wait until the new listing prices kick in.
I did it for the ACEO card deck. My card I was allotted was the Ace of Spades.
I couldn't get past my original fascination with this card.
I grew up in the age when we played cowboys and indians, and there were westerns galore on the TV. To find out that the Ace of Spades has such a shady history with the shooting of Wild Bill Hickok, I never could get out of my mind.
Attending a western re-enactment last year provided some wonderful images, so with a bit of manipulating the pose, etc. This is what I came up with. I did a bit of this under magnification. And I deliberately gave it a very muted color scheme.
