Sneak peek at the 35 with black seal

are they new cards as well or just new tucks? The cards are the "classic" ones, @Harvonsgard is right. I have always wanted to make a gilded edition of the Pinocchio decks for a bunch of reasons. On the one hand, the gilded edition was just never made. As the Vermilion and Sapphire tuck b...

Hello there,

Opinion survey. Do you prefer top or bottom?


We have a back design, by the way. *The layout of the courts in the following images is not updated.

I love this. Very excited about this project. Thanks for sharing! Thank you! :) Wouldn't be the first hand made deck I own 😃. Out of curiosity, what's the concern? I don't even know where to start from. A couple of examples might help to communicate the concerns I am talking about. Example no. 1 Pr...

In the end, we opted for the middle version. The one below is the Jack of Clubs / "O Sbiro de Scioî" in the Genoese dialect. Fante di fiori.jpg The shape of the shield has been modified to better fit the Italian model; the representations on it have been substituted with the so-called Sain...

Family members are left-handed. They all fan the other way. We always need four corner indexed card for gameplay, which is a pity because most of the beautiful modern custom playing cards have only two corner indices. I don't know if they are indeed in the minority or if the majority of left-handed...

I can't wait to see what you pull out the hat for the back design. Me too... :D However again.... game play/usability thing comes in to play. In an example scenario -- game play when players hold multiple cards, if those held cards not separated or held a wee bit apart, would not recognize if the c...

I must correct myself. History is getting back in the game!

Yes, the left version requires some patience for being appreciated.

Thank you all for sharing your point of view! We started from 6 different layouts and the almost univocity of your opinion is very clarifying. @masagin303 I was fearing so much the readability of those texts on the poker size, that I didn't realize they were even too big. Thank you! I was blind. As ...

Hello everyone, and best wishes for the new year!  Big picture: Together with an authentic Genoese guy - I have started working on a very particular project. I am reinterpreting the iconography of the traditional Genovesi cards, which are a specific kind of Italian regional cards. The courts are qui...

Hello there! I try not to meddle in the conversations regarding the designs I work on. I always get very embarrassed for the kind comments (I literally hide my face behind my scarf while being at the office, with eyes wide open) and usually feel like I'm nosing around where I shouldn't. BUT I'd like...

With some patience, Bold will be completed... But why is USPCC so slow? I can't wait to get the playing cards

A Christmas Carol would be such an awesome theme! I love this idea so much.
Are you sure about the style? Any draft?

I've got to thank too many people supporting me, here....... :)🙏🏻 I'd like in particular to answer to @Harvonsgard, as I appreciated his note and there is something obvious (but not that obvious) that I want to underline. The most decks being gilded are decks, gilded. I mean: of course one cannot pr...

Passione will always have a special place in my heart, and I'm sure I can say it on behalf of quite a lot of people. I'll miss you a lot, Riccardo.

Indeed I'll keep on sharing every single thing I do with you, in our multiple chats, as if this conversion had never occurred.

Thank you very much @Harvonsgard I'm happy to have finally surpassed the goal!

@OVSUB Thanks also to you! I feel lucky and grateful for the support I'm getting from this community.

Is there anyone who has this deck? I’ve seen it via Portfolio 52 and I’ve been suddenly electrocuted (self-mockery? )
It’s an emotional issue

I'm happy and honored to be part of those few. Thanks, @macstrat

Looks kinda like the Fontaine "f", right? :lol: I love it! Nope, don't look anything like an f. At least to my eyes. If it must look like a Letter then it looks like an S. ;) Thank you so much, @Fes!!! :) Also I'm glad you like Mr. Bold :ugdance: As for the "f", you and Harvonsg...

I'd probably get these if I could afford backing anything at the moment, but I can't. Is it foil on the tuck box or the cards? I'm sorry @MagikFingerz. For what it's worth, I'm trying to keep the prices as low as possible for this first solo campaign. The foil is on the box, whereas the inner cards...

Thank you @brownsl!

I love this deck too. The illustrations are very original and the whole product seems to be made with great care. I'd be sooooo curious to explore the whole process behind the finished deck (design and realization of the physical product)

Yeah, definitely unique.

Hello!

Here's Bold Deluxe, featuring 2 foils (red and gold) + embossing on premium black textured paper. Hope you like it!

And if you don't, it's okay either way

Those are definitely some bold lines! Beautiful!! :D Thank you @Decknowledgy :D I tend to use very very thin lines, so working with bold lines was actually one of the most challenging parts to me :lol: will certainly pick up a couple, looks simple ( tho im sure it wasnt to design ), different, defi...

Hi! I'm going to launch a new "solo" project on July 21st. The name is Bold. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/elettrad/bold It consists of 2 decks: Bold Standard (or Regular :D ) + Bold Collector's Edition. Both will be printed by USPCC. As for the box of the Collector's Edition with i...

Welcome at UC Elettra. @CPPCC I would bet money on it. Would be a huge coincedence. Thank you :) Can I answer to each single comment or is it an annoying practice? :oops: You can, but it's possible to do so inside the same post :) While at the "Post reply" screen, you can scroll down to s...

Welcome, Elettra!

Hello everybody :) I'm Elettra. I have never signed up to a forum or used one before, so I'm warning you that I'm kinda noob (and I hope I won't mess up this thing).
