Artbook Instead of Cards

Having been thinking about what to use for the front of the trading cards, I realized I don’t have many projects, and even less images of those project that could actually be used. I didn’t want to create collector cards if there were only going to be four of five of them, so started thinking of an alternative.

The concept I came up with is instead of using trading cards, where each showcases the best image of the work, I’d make an artbook. It’s different from a traditional form of a printed portfolio, which doesn’t necessarily fit well with video games, and is in fact often seen as a kind of video game accessory, similarly to a soundtrack CD, key chain and other merchandise.

For the time being I was thinking of an A5 horizontal book format, but I’ll do some research before I make a final decision.
