Slate Card Frames

Slate Card Frames is a set of 11 card, currency and notification components drawn in the realistic style, where a five-stop specular gradient runs down a brushed metal face with rivets at the corners. It contains four rarity card frames, three currency counters, a notification badge and three toast banners.

Rarity is almost always encoded as a border colour, which fails twice: it disappears in greyscale, and it competes with the item art, which is itself coloured. This set encodes rarity as structure instead.

The brush texture is a 3px line pattern rather than real noise: noise triples the PNG weight for a texture nobody can see at 1x. The shadow is layered rather than blurred so it holds up at 4x.

Inside that style this is the Slate reading of it: a dark interface on a neutral slate palette with warm gold accents, built around a single bordered frame, square-cornered buttons at 128x40, banded bars divided into 10 segments, and outlined icons on a 24px grid. Those measurements are why two families can share an art style without being interchangeable: the style decides how an edge is drawn, the numbers decide what the interface is for.

Each tier adds a countable feature — common has none, rare adds two corner brackets, epic adds an inner rule and four brackets, legendary adds a crown band. You can tell them apart at thumbnail size, in a screenshot, and with the colour removed. The toast banners keep colour to a 6px edge stripe so the message text sits at the same contrast in all three tones.

Every sprite ships as an editable SVG and as transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x, so you can drop the PNGs straight into an engine or open the vector and change a colour. Built to the same measurements as the rest of the Slate family, which means this kit and the Slate panel kit line up without either being resized. A good fit for realistic and simulation interfaces.
