Hi,
I designed some court cards loosely based on the German Berlin style of cards.
I'm half thinking of kickstarter and was looking for feedback on the cards.

Thanks for sharing this project, Ade.

I like the art style of your Kings and the full-color draft looks really good. Something to consider is that collectors are starting to request a more seamless or more interesting transition between the top and bottom images, as opposed to a hart cutoff or straight line in the middle. Have you tried playing around with that kind of transition?

I like the character in front of the pip on the B card but I think he could use an improved color scheme like that of the King above.

Finally, I really like the expression and hands on the uncolored King of Diamonds illustration on the bottom. I find him the most compelling.

Thanks again and I look forward to seeing more!

I am not generally a fan of the german style cards and echo most of what Bacon said above, especially the harsh line between court halves. I cannot think off hand of any decks I have bought with that line of separation.
