A young Knight gundam gazes upon a cup he holds gently but firmly in his hand. Within the cup, there resides a violet rose; a symbol of love. The Knight of Cups often refers to a young man of high intelligence, and a romantic dreamer. Should he appear in a woman's reading, it could mean the Seeker is falling in love with such a man, or, a coming and going of a matter involving the heart.Stupid scanner cut off the bottom of this, which says "Knight of Cups", and gives this more of a 'Tarot card-ish' appearance.
I'll post a bigger phtoto eventually...
A long while ago, I had an idea to turn all of the Transformers Animated characters into playing cards, but I never did finish that idea. However, recently, I had another idea.
Most of you know (okay, maybe not) that I practice reading Tarot cards. They're my life... and I read out of my Tarot book daily. I had plans to draw Zero, but then, suddenly, it hit me; who more perfect to put on a Tarot card then the Winged Knight, Zero?
So, yesterday, I sketched this, and earlier today, since nobody was online, I finished colouring it with sharpies and watercolours, as usual. Despite the shading, I'm quite happy with the result. c: Not sure about the shading, but I lost my twist-up crayon that I usually use to shade and had to mix black and white paint to shade it. What do you think?
And if anyone doesn't get the passage, allow me to explain; in Tarot, just like a standard playing card deck, we have picture cards; the Pages, Knights, Queens, and Kings. (in that order) The court cards (that's what they're called) represent people; Pages are young boys and girls, Knights are young meen, Queens are women, and Kings are older men. (older Tarot decks don't have Queens, though; the Knight holds her place instead) Also, each Minor Achana (the four groups; Swords, Cups, Pentacles, and Wands; think of them as the Diamonds, hearts, spades, and clubs in a playing deck) represents different aspects of life; Swords= action, Cups= Emotions, Pentacles= Money, and Wands= business. I'll leave you to Google the rest.
So, there is my long and worsy description. Don't hesitate to critique; I reaaaaaaaaaaaally need it. ;_;
Zero belongs to Bandai.
Art is mine.
Time Taken; Two days.
Done while listening to; "Alluring Secret ~Black Vow~" by Kagamine Rin/Len.
Inspired by; Tarot, and info obtained from Eden Grey's book "Mastering the Tarot".
And technically, I am an Atheist, btw. I don't worship any god, but Tarot isn't worship, and has no magic about it. Though, Tarot is considered religious... so I guess you could call me spiritual.

But thanks!
What would be the reverse meaning, or do you believe in the reverse meanings of the cards?
And, according to my book, (I haven't memorized the meanings, haha *bricked*) a reversed Knight of Cups can symbolize a young man whose dishonest, or, when it's not talking about a person, it means deception or thievery... but it's never come up in any of my readings, so I wounldn't know for sure.
Oh, wow, I just looked up Ukiyoe Tarot deck on amazon, those are beautiful! <3
Here's a sample of mine: [link]
Anywho, just wanted to say I think the art and the concept are awesome.
Oh yeah, they are.
And thanks!
Ooh, that would be amazing. I think he would be the Magician, honestly.
Actually, I thought of making him the King of Wands or King of Pentacles, but I think you may be right!
Traveling on his way, the Fool first encounters a Magician. Skillful, self-confident, a powerful magus with the infinite as a halo floating above his head, the Magician mesmerizes the Fool. When asked, the Fool gives over his bundled pack and stick to the Magician. Raising his wand to heaven, pointing his finger to Earth, the Magician calls on all powers. Magically, the cloth of the pack unfolds upon the table, revealing its contents.
To the Fool's eyes, it is as if the Magician has created the future with a word. All the possibilities are laid out, all the directions he can take: The cool, airy Sword of intellect and communication, the fiery Wand of passions and ambition, the overflowing Chalice of love and emotions, the solid Pentacle of work, possessions and body.
With these tools, the Fool can create anything, make anything of his life. But here's the question, did the Magician create the tools, or were they already in the pack? Only the Magician knows - and on this mystery, our eloquent mage refuses to say a word.
Doesn't that fit our DaiShogun?
