Possible Deck Review?

Hello unitedcardists community! I have designed a deck of playing cards that I plan to launch on kickstarter pretty soon. I was wondering if there is anyone out here that would be interested in doing a deck review for me. I have a few mock decks on hand that I could send out and anybody who is willi...

Re: Opulent Playing Cards

I think this is a step backward. In the 7oC the indices down match the interior pips at all. Very disconcerting. I think the styles should match so go with one or the other. The white pip is even worse. It looks like the card is unfinished. The red on the 7oD looks good. The "bottom" pip ...

Re: Opulent Playing Cards

Thank you everybody for your feedback! I've done some alterations and I want to know which you guys think is the best. I took off the drop shadows, put borders around the pips, and gave the index pips color for comparison. The index pips do not match because they are intended for comparison. Hopeful...

Re: Opulent Playing Cards

Before anything else, I need to say that I love that back design and I'm really digging the artwork for the Jack. I hope you have already put into consideration to make it easy enough to differentiate between suits. As it looks from this small preview, I'm not sure for example how you'd indicate th...

I was planning on doing this eventually. I hope to launch this deck on a kickstarter campaign, then if they are received well hopefully launch with different colors.

The Jack only has one arm because the standard jack of spades design also only has one arm.

Re: Regarding deck design for magic

In my opinion, one very important thing when trying to promote a workhorse deck is the cards have to be easily recognizable. When I first was getting into magic a while back I bought a fancy deck to do tricks with. The downside to it though was a tad bit hard to spectators to figure out what their c...

Hello, I have been a card collector for a number of years now. My collection just started when I would see fancy or cool looking decks at the store. As I got a little older I started looking on ellusionist or theory11 for new cards. I also enjoy magic a lot. Magic has always amazed me, especially wh...
