Finished board state of a game of City Skylines, with playing cards arranged to look like skyscrapers in city skylines. Each player that sits around the table has an example of a skyline constructed in this manner.

Got my first in person impromptu pre-order for City Skylines! Was a little surreal to tell you the truth, but sometimes these things just happen. Here's hoping that such fortune continues into the future :)
Cover art for the City Skylines rulebook. Features cracked and shattered stained glass shards that each reflect different aspects of a modern city. Average playtime is specified to be 30 minutes for games of 2-5 players.

The Jemstone Games logo of a coiled dragon wraps around the heart symbol on the ace card. three splayed playing cards show the clubs suit, wood themed and green tinged. The eight, the two and the ace are shown. The Jemstone Games logo of a coiled dragon wraps around the clubs symbol on the ace card.

Here's some of the artwork for the rulebook of City Skylines, a playing-card based city building game I've designed.

A birds eye view of a city street. On the roof tops of two buildings a street artist spraypaints a purple dragon logo on the side of a UFO saucer shaped spaceship. Meanwhile on the second building rooftop, two men in builders work attire look over a blueprint for a new story extension of the building they are standing on. Building materials and minimal scaffolding can be seen behind the two men. The image is divided in two by a side on view of a pavement that cuts through the centre of the image. On top of the pavement walks a red headed woman in a blue coat. She walks between shops that flank her on either side of a narrow alleyway. Below the pavement is a basement room with a couch and three guys playing a card game on a wooden table.
