10. The Wheel of Fortune  . Po and the Furious Five (Kung Fu Panda)

“Destiny and the cycle of life. Good fortune and karma. ”

An almost literal representation of a circle of life and how each individual’s life and choices are affected by their own choosing, but also subject to the cycles and ups and downs of life. Unexpected meetings and turns of fate are due to this as well, and if a food-loving, kung-fu fanboy Panda suddenly becoming a martial arts master to save all of China isn’t that...then I don’t know what to tell you!

15. The Devil  . Adachi (Persona 4)

“Constrictive forces, materialism, addiction and obsession. Hopelessness.”

A symbol of what can happen when people give in to their raw desires. The absence of light it represents can also show you’re in an unhealthy situation, or stuck in negative thought patterns...such as obsessing over being a big city cop stuck in a podunk town with nothing going on, so you decide to start tossing people into a TV dimension populated by monsters just to liven things up! You know, like you do. Well, not you. Adachi. Adachi did that.

4. The Emperor  . Karl Schubaltz (ZOIDS: Chaotic Century)

“Power, determined action, initiative. Passion and energy for life.”

Authoritative and stern, Karl definitely fits that bill, even though he isn’t the usual ‘old man’ archetype. In his hand is the orb representing the world he rules - the zoid core, heart of the Zoids which are the center for the world of Zi - and behind him is his throne, decorated with four rams heads - the Zaberfang being his chosen seat of power. Mostly….I wanted to draw another robot.

5. The Hierophant  . Kenshin Himura (Rurouni Kenshin)

“Earthly spirituality, strong adherence to values, the pursuit of knowledge and betterment.”

This person is one who is very down to earth and worldly, having gained much life experience to draw upon by being in the world and living with others. They’re someone attempting to do the right thing, even if they struggle with knowing/discovering what that is, and in opposition of others’ ideas and values. Usually this knowledge comes with age, but if anyone is the definition of an old soul, it’s Kenshin! Living and fighting through the Meiji Restoration, killing for a cause, and then choosing on his own to leave that way of life and live by his own values, we thought he was a fun fit for this.

19. The Sun  . Amaterasu (Okami)

“Optimism and vitality. Success. Radiance and warmth. Innocence and self confidence.”

I won’t embarrass all of us by telling you how long it took to think of who to use for this card. The sun card. Maybe the sun goddess. From one of my favorite games ever. Who I’ve done a million drawings and doodles of for years since it came out. Maybe THAT sun goddess. For the sun card. Once I came to my senses though, it was a blast to draw, and had a lot of fun with the flowers, fur and dramatic angle! The card traditionally includes sunflowers and white horse, so using Ammy’s wolf form in its stead seemed appropriate and fitting for her.

Alright, she is all together. I love the fact it comes with different weapons. I am not sure if I’ll put the W2-unit on this one, I think it will take away from the beauty of the Zoid. I just need to break out my paint pens and add some color detail to her. The only thing that will make this model more perfect is if my lovely friend at highwirecats draws a pic of Naomi and her Gun Sniper, that I can use as a back drop.
