nice but...

Cool. Shit loads of work put into it. Colours are cool. I wish it had used more original illustrations though. Cut-out medieval stuff is over done. Most recently in the opening for Desperate House Wives. Still nice though.

the colour scheme is actually a direct reference to neapolitan playing cards (and tarot cards to some extent). looks like they really read up on arcane spiritual texts, too...
