Hey everyone, It's been a while since I've been active here, so I wanted to get in touch and let you know what's been happening. After finishing my studies at my university, I had a lot of work that I was doing, which unfortunately left me with little time or resources to focus on the Tragedy of Ma...

No effort to take the suit into account this time around for the courts? Not a big deal on my part at all, but it seems like it *might* be a missed opportunity. Unless you've already tried it with the new design and still found it a bit too difficult to make it work aesthetically. Hi. As talked abo...

Hi everyone,

Below is the test illustration inked up. What do you think?

A very promising graphic. We understand that it is a long process especially if advanced studies are done in parallel. Good luck, I like what you draw. Thanks for the kind words. There's a good amount of things I didn't like from the previous version we did, as well as processes behind the scenes t...

I’ve been curiously watching this design, wondering how well it would do on Kickstarter. Last year I did a Tudor Dynasty design that didn’t do well at all (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/randybutterfield/playing-cards-house-of-tudor?ref=user_menu). Sure, some of the reasons could have been th...

Legends is definitely worth looking into, as is WJPC who I believe offer various deals to first timers. LPCC hasn't gotten back to me since my initial contact with them last month and a couple of weeks ago. However, I did successfully get in contact with EPCC, and since both operate in the same fac...

Good news! After speaking with EPCC, I'll move over to them for manufacturing. It's a great alternative, considering that EPCC shares the same factory floors as LPCC and that LPCC hasn't responded to my manufacturing request. Plus, they don't have the 2500 minimum order quantity that USPCC has, and ...

I've resized the designs to fit within the poker die lines from USPCC, as the original illustrations weren't within the safe printing lines for some reason. Would that reason be that USPC have serious registration problems It is hard to tell looking at large images but how wide a border is the card...

Doesn't USPCC have a 2500 deck minimum now? To make sure it gets funded the next go around, wouldn't it make more sense to use MPC or WJPC since they can start off with a much lower deck run, greatly lowering the minimum cost to make the project viable? Especially with it being a 1st time project a...

Let me know what you guys think so far, especially with the back design.

Spades - Number Cards

Hearts - Number Cards

Diamonds - Number Cards

Clubs - Number Cards

Hi everyone. You may have read the update regarding the Tragoedia Macbethi Playing Cards, which I'll rename to the Tragedy of Macbeth Playing Cards, and here's what I've done so far. I've resized the designs to fit within the poker die lines from USPCC, as the original illustrations weren't within t...

Hello everyone. I wanted to update you regarding the deck and what happened since the Kickstarter was cancelled. My co-founder is no longer part of this and future decks. I won't get into what happened, but I only wish her the best. Right now, my concern is making the deck better. I've been AFK for ...

I do own it to you guys since you guys helped us a lot

Look at cumpsty latest campaign (commoners v2) - the decks are high cost, which is not my suggestion, and printed by cartamundi spain which is also not suggested at the moment, but what he is trying to accomplish is apparent it is obviously to produce store inventory - while having fans assist by g...

$22k is a very high target for a first time deck. That has nothing to do with the value of what you're offering, it just means 22k is too high full stop, so cut your cloth accoridingly. If you can't offer those decks for less, change what you're offering. A reasonable first time effort would be in ...

Personally, all the white space on the court cards does not appeal to me. Initially, we tried adding the pips to the court cards, but some were obstructed by the court card characters, the Queen of Clubs being a good example. We're going to test somethings out and see if we can work something out.

We need some high school English teachers to get a whiff of this deck.

That's something I'm considering.

Im really not sure what changes will reach success. I thought you had done a pretty good job getting the word out. for a first time producer with inexpensive decks, the funding goal was a bit high. deciding both the stock to be used and metallic inks to stretch goals...things that people would eith...

We've cancelled the campaign and will relaunch it on Tuesday at 8 AM EDT.

I think our rushing to launch on Friday was a wrong decision, and we plateaued immediately.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide feedback on the Kickstarter campaign and how it can be improved.

I've changed the shipping rates for playing card add-ons, such as the Standard & Limited Edition add-ons, the Bundle, Bundle+, Half Brick and Full Brick. The issue stems from the fact that Kickstarter would see an add-on as an individual addition to a pledge, which is normal but results in an is...

So, one potential backer sent a message saying that the shipping cost for the UK was £40 for four decks. I was very confused since the Bundle+ (2 decks of each edition) only costs £14 for shipping. However, the condition that created the £40 shipping cost was that he backed a Limited Edition and add...

While I'm not familiar with Macbeth at all, I backed the limited edition of this deck because I want to support the producer and the artists behind the campaign. We've seen this campaign develop over many months with community involvement and feedback each step of the way. That has value to me. Tha...

So I had my eye on these, art looks good (although the Limited is so much better than the standard I'm not sure it was worth making this two decks) but as usual the shipping is just way too much for me to even be on the fence. £10 for one deck from a UK designer when I'm in the UK is just... I real...

We've officially gone live on Kickstarter! To remind everyone, we have an early bird deal where 100 backers can get 20% off both the Standard and Limited Editions, split to 50 each. So, if you want to snatch a great deal, please visit our Kickstarter link and back the early bird deal. Back now, or y...
