A Lucha Libre deck is past due. Far past due.
Before embarking on project I check the Internet to see if it's been done before. As my Loteria deck, it's surprising that it hasn't been created before now. Lucha Libre lends itself to a deck in multiple ways and the more I thought about it, the more natural it becomes. Now comes the hard part... the art.
This deck is a little easer than the other ones I've designed because the format that I'm using came together nicely from the start. Usually I spend a lot of time tweaking and modifying a layout to use that is visible on a small card but still with a unique flair. This design I've decided on fulfills those criteria nicely and looks amazing. I've already completed cards 2-9 for clubs and will be starting on the other suits tonight.
The real heavy-lifting of this project will be the face cards. I want to have something that has a Mexican flavor but is specifically targeted to Lucha VaVoom. THAT is going to require some skill!
