Today is the first of three streams this week that will detail the card back design process featuring the Septemeber 2020 card back.
We'll be seeing the Concept stage today which is the idea and rough sketch of the card back. Three potential concepts will be looked at and then we'll have a commitment to the favourite. Later this week we'll see the progress of fleshing the design out more and then the finalized design. You can watch all the action unfold down below.
The stream is headed by Luke Mancini who will be doing all the design for the card back and Hadidjah Chamberlain, Hearthstone's Lead FX Artist, will be present to help answer community questions.
These are some of the early sketches that Luke started with. They were done off-stream.

Pretty damned interesting.
I am a technical geek and have no artistic talent.
Must be nice to be so artistically creative :)
I am neither technically inclined nor artistically talented. Must be nice to be either one. Kappa
Yeah but you got lots of other skills I do not. I know this because if it's not computer related then I'm likely bad at it :)
