Hi I’m Scott Uminga an illustrator from Toronto, Canada. Primarily a digital landscape artist, but I enjoy drinking coffee, receiving gift c
The Scott Uminga, play mat anatomy sheet.
Do pardon my grammar. You're going to get classic Scott Uminga run on sentences.
First I want to thank the community that has gotten me into this great game. And for being so humble and welcoming. Rekindling my love for art and cards games.
Thanks to Inked Gaming and their team for having me as an artist on the platform. And for the manufacturing and production for these mats.
Please use the card zones however you like and what is comfortable to you.
The mat anatomy is initially based on what I would've liked, and what me and my friends experienced. During our first time playing together and what we sort of wanted. (We are very new)
There are various references online. Which definitely inspired the placement of certain card zones. And I wanted the mat to feel familiar to long time players. But too have space for new players to figure out. And identify the place of cards and tokens.
A left and right version was made. Truthfully because I thought of one friend in mind. I know there are players who are used to certain formats so I hope you are able to find one you like.
I do hope to make a full player mat. Where both are on one. Though I wanted to give priority for players that wanted a particular faction or colour. And and option for a left or right version for comfortability.
I've added text like "Rest" and "Draw" as a reminder for the player at the beginning of their turn. I did not add specific text for each zone in the cases players wanted to choose their own placement. I may introduce text and rules in future iterations. And from possible feedback.
I truly am uncertain if the cards will fit in the zone. And were sized to fit without a card sleeve. So I hope this may be ok for players. Though going forward I hope to learn from this experience.
Initially the first design had logos and assets. But I decided to omit them on the case if there was conflicting licensing agreements from multiple parties. So all art were created by me and font were implemented by me. Names of the mats, references Gems, Colours and Natural Elements.
All in all, I hope you enjoy them and I hope it enhances the universe just a little bit more for you. So please take pictures and @ me on my socials. I'd love to see all the colours!
