Card-back concept comparison
Four independent concepts generated with the built-in image generation tool. The existing card-back.png and harness assets are unchanged.
| Concept | Direction | Review note |
|---|---|---|
| 01 Cathedral Rose | Teal rose window, cream/sage panes, small central cross | Closest to existing stained-glass identity; still relatively ornamental. |
| 02 Woven Burgundy | Burgundy, cream medallion, vine geometry | Warm devotional book-cover direction; densest of the set. |
| 03 Cream Seal | Cream field, teal seal, quiet rose geometry | Calmest and clearest digital silhouette; strongest minimalist direction. |
| 04 Sacred Arches | Dark slate/teal architectural glass | Strong dark alternative; geometric framing and fewer floral motifs. |
Review all four in review/comparison.png. Originals are in source/, with exact generation prompts in source/prompts.json. No lettering was requested; any eventual wordmark should be typeset separately with the selected product font.
These are concept assets, not approved production backs. Requested two-way rotational symmetry is approximate in generated images and has not been established as exact. The fourth concept includes a shaded perimeter that should be flattened for the runtime texture. Before promotion, refine geometry/symmetry, verify thumbnail recognition, prepare delivery sizes, preserve opaque rectangular textures, and evaluate the back in the card harness. Use one approved reverse across the rarity ladder so it does not reveal card identity or rarity.
