This deck rightfully deserves the top spot in Kickstarter funding of card deck projects.

Cartamundi actually isn't cheaper than USPCC. I got some quotes from them last year before I even got to USPCC. They had a minimum order amount of $10,000 and their per-deck price was actually higher than USPCC, even with Bike branding. What's good about them is that they have a huge array of option...

Hello, here are some numbers that I got, please see if any one have advice as to what to do for my next project if I go with USPCC This is how I got to 15k just to be safe for the previous project. If any one can help me work with these numbers in a way where I can bring the stretch goal down and s...

Thanks!

Well, maybe to throw darts at or something? Isn't that the intent with this deck?

I'm a little confused. The $25 pledge level says "Silver Backers...Get this one-of-a-kind deck of playing cards FREE."

Which is it, $25 or free?

Now that is an interesting deck display. Do you know if that is a cork material. Thanks! We made it out of some sort of composite wood material (it's basically made of sawdust and glue). I can ask my dad what exactly it's called. We used this material to make it as light as possible, but even still...

Cool. I'm glad you like them! That may the only version of the SurrealScapes deck that ever exists! Hopefully not...

Some images of the prototype deck.

As do I. Let's see if that T-shirt is really the thing that pushes it over the edge.

All righty then, I'm not ready to give up yet, so I've relaunched the SurrealScapes Kickstarter campaign. I simplified the reward tiers, added some new rewards, lowered the funding goal slightly, and added a T-shirt! Yes, I think the T-shirt will be the thing that makes the difference. ;-) Check out...

Heh heh, my dreams are not easily crushed, but I appreciate the tact anyway.

I don't see what would be different, say, a year from now than today, since I've been doing this art for many years already. Someone posted a meme on Facebook that read: "Sometimes the hardest decision you'll ever face is deciding whether to walk away or try harder." At this point, it's ti...

Sucks to see this project fail again : / I thought I was promoting more than ever yet still very slow when it comes to backing this one up. Just look at how many decks are live right now on Kickstarter. It's crazy. I also thought I had very good prices for international buyers and domestic. We'll s...

Damn. I'm not worthy!

I think a little bit lower price and a two-way back and this campaign could exceed even what the Pedale deck achieved. But I'm backing it anyway.

From what I understand, the overall design quality is not nearly as good and as crisp, as a deck made directly by USPCC. The quality, as far as being able to use the deck on a regular basis, is poor. I am not sure that is the best way to go. Thanks! Indeed that is correct. But what else can I do? Y...

I would much rather have them printed in any quality than not printed at all. Most of my collection is comprised of decks of high quality as I am something of a flourisher and use those skills to enjoy my cards more, but some decks are exceptions because of their beautiful art. This is definitely o...

Dude this are sweet. Backed as soon as I saw them. If they do not make it at least I had the honour to back these beauties. Thank you for the compliments and for your support! So let me ask this: It looks likely that I won't have the funds to do a full run with the USPCC itself, so what do you guys...

i agree Sean. I like the art contained on this deck, but to fit in collectors' interests I suggested the artist to mix his amazing art techniques with playing cards iconography. Of course, it is a lot of new work but I think it would be stunning... anyway, I backed this deck as it is nice IMO and I...

Here's my opinion on this deck: personally I believe it belongs in an art gallery, not a deck of cards. The artwork is very beautiful and has the theme going across each card. However, it does not sit well with the average playing card collector. With only 6 days to go I doubt it will reach it's go...

One more week to go, can we make it happen?

Duh, that's a neat trick naming that deck "3Doodler Playing Cards"! Ha! I should try that! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1915304249/playing-card-deck-new-york-lights?ref=live In case you're wondering why he did that, take a look at the REAL 3Doodler: http://www.kickstarter.com/projec...

Jean, Thank you very much for your support! I have backed your project as well, we artists need to stick together! ;-) I'd like to give you some more detailed feedback on your deck, in the hopes that you might be able to make some small tweaks and really bring your deck design together. I know you h...

Wow. But I had no idea just how tough many of you are to your appreciation of artistic expression. Not that I do not welcome critism, I do greatly regard any and all of your thoughts. It's just that the overall tone seems definately to balance toward the negetive side of consideration. I gather tha...

No problem. ;-) But yes, the creator of this particular should clear his artwork with USPCC like I did. For my deck, I sent them all the images that would end up on the cards and the tuckbox and I asked them to give me their approval in writing that the images would be okay to print. They were okay ...

USPCC definitely won't let you use Bike branding on anything that doesn't pass their content restrictions, and that includes putting anything on the box that says USPCC or makes any reference to Air-Cushion Finish, Magic Finish, or anything else Bicycle-related. But if they are willing to print the ...

Thank you!

The SurrealScapes Body Art & Creative Photography Deck has been relaunched on Kickstarter:

In case anyone missed it while UC was down, the Kickstarter campaign for the SurrealScapes deck is now ongoing:



There are still plenty of early-bird slots available so get in on the action!

That's awesome to hear. Thanks! That's a high compliment coming from the people on this board. The artwork side of this project is done. Now I have to do all the math and structure the rewards for the Kickstarter campaign. With recent heavy increases in the cost of shipping items outside the US, it'...
