Alice in Wonderland

Unread post by willroya »

I am working on a new deck with artist Sasha Dounaevski. I would really like your opinion on what back coloring (if any) you like best. Other cards are attached for reference / preview. Thanks!

I find the back design very noisy. It's not as clean as the illustrations.

Hi Will,

This deck's campaign is still running on Indiegogo showing 18 days left for the campaign to end. Since you're supporting it now, I hope it will fair better with a relaunch on Kickstarter. The cards really look nice but there is no bells & whistles like tuck foiling, embossing etc. You may want to ask her to cancel the campaign on Indiegogo and relaunch through your assistance on Kickstarter and I can't see why it won't get funded then.


Regards,
Sunish

love the deck! I really hope you find a way to get it on Kickstarter where I am confident it will fund. As for back design I like #3 but maybe a few more things highlighted in red to match the faces of the cards. (Some of the elements that are blue in design #4)

Number 4 is the best back IMO. Number 3 is also pretty good.

Thank you all for the feedback so far, a KS campaign is planned, but we are going to be getting a prototype deck printed for proofing and pre-review first. If you or someone you know who has reviewed pre-release decks before please feel free to contact me directly. Thanks!

Very excited that you have joined forces with Sasha, Will!

For the card backs, I honestly would like to see more options as I think there is still to much white space (except of course the blue back with white outline). Look forward to the re-launch on KS either way as I love the art! :ugdance:

Looking forward to the KS launch - this deck definitely deserves to be printed :)
For the backs I like 3 and 4 - which one do you like the most Sasha?
Good luck with the next phase on your Wonderland journey :)
