Love the Art Style!
I have to say, I really have been enjoying this game. I especially love the character 'card' art, though one thing I really wish though. The Gods 'card art' is a lot better and cooler looking than the silly and funny looking colored/CG ones you see on the Gods select screen. I'd love an option to disable that and just see only character card art. Would look way better thematically with the rest of the game. The CG art looks really cheap and out of place compared to the other well done elements of this game. Minor pet peeve of mine.

I really dig the combat cards myself.

Thea and Mount and Blade: Warband have pretty much the most personally appealing art style for me.

Welp, I'm a photorealistic pencil-work snob >.> XD

Well done, whomever's responsible for the drawings.

Another Mount and Blade fan, I should've known!, both games share this adventurey, open-endedy, resource-managey, build an army-y feel to them ~

Don't forget the "stack the best gear until each individual in your party can dethrone gods themselves" part XD

As mentioned, I generally prefer photo-realism. Coupled with extensive study of actual equipment used during various historical periods, and personal "function over style" preferences, all the Warcraft-y huge pauldrons, bulky armor skirts, and the like kind of irk me.

It's just a very subjective personal preference. I can still recognize a very polished presentation of Thea, even though some of the choices in it aren't my cup of tea :)

I'm not going to deviantart. Nope. Nuh-uh. It's almost as bad as TVTropes in sneakily stealing all your free time...

it's too late for me, i clicked it... go on without me!

who did the paintings for the events and story? they have a really great sense of color... but it seems different to that guy's [the card character artist's] style? they use a different palette and different brushstrokes

We have several artists doing the colour graphics, and yes, they are not the same as the card game. Check out the game's credits for a full list :) And thanks! We really love our artists.

I'm familar with Mount and Blade but I wasn't aware it had a similar art system as Thea in terms of characters?
