I've been wanting to do a double-exposure poster for Wargroove lately. The conflict between Cherrystone and Felheim seemed like a perfect theme for the poster design.





Surprisingly, the original idea for this poster is very similar to what the final piece has become despite a few different versions. The silhouette of Valder was always a good frame for the awesome duo of Mercia and Caesar. Shove the Cherrystone Castle in the background to set the scene, and you instantly see the story of Mercia and Caesar defending the Kingdom from the evil Valder (who, just in case you didn't notice, is angry and evil).





What did change was the colours. I tried with more realistic colour schemes - they made the piece difficult to read - to red foreground to a purple/blue background - but that just became a mess - to the red theme to tie in with the whole invasion of Cherrystone (who knew red was such a good colour for catastrophes). Valder not being blue has me concerned, after trying it I find the red really ups the drama of the piece.
