These mockups are for a 'top trumps' style of card game, again using characters from my jinxed Retrograde 5 project (see January '26 post below for the tragic details). These visuals are more stylised versions of the character images used on the cereal cards, again with variations on some of the figure's stance, appearance or attire.
Back in the early 2000s when I had ambitions of being a screenwriter I would often mock up cards like this for the characters in my current script or pitch. This would help flesh out characters in my head, their traits and personalities. Often the image would be a shot of an actor who I imagined suitable for the role. This 'fantasy casting' helped with the writing process and how certain characters would interact in a scene.
And yes, the visual for Shallow Cosmos 6 space station is just a spark plug and some cables.
