Definitely creative and interesting artwork. I think the card faces are too busy so you lose focus on the central artwork. Fun backs and the theme is executed pretty well. Perhaps someone here will take a chance on the printer.

As a side note: does anyone else want to see a deck with reference artwork they posted? I guess this is not original artwork by the creator but it looks nifty.

Oh bwoi... where to start. Whole campaign shows only the spades courts - leads me to the assumption that we gonna have repeating courts.
Sun, moon and stars on the courts, cool - if the star wouldn't look like a diamond pip, which could get confusing during gameplay. Like Bacon wrote cards are messy/crowded.
Some fu ideas for sure but lack in execution. Let's end with that I like the bottom border of the ace of clubs.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

I actually quite like these. Reminds me of Steve Minty’s Anubis and Osiris. Will give it a chance and back it.

Not really a minimal deck.
Move on, nothing to see here.

Im kinda liking this but is it a trustworthy company? They have made another deck previously but did anyone here get it? I'm a sucker for black and gold, and the backs look quite nice. I just might take a chance...

I find I'm liking this deck too. I think a lot of it is loaded with meow charm and that hits for me. :)

That has me probably more curious than I should be. :geek: That's interesting and I want to know more about this. Any details would be welcome if anyone has any knowledge, experience or idea about. . . that. :lol:

It says "3D Embossing Bronze-golden Foil Playing Cards" right there on the project page. I'm assuming it's similar to the MPC Impressions decks.

Yea, I don't know what that stuff is. I know that MPC Impressions uses UV Embossing process on top of the cards. This stuff looks very different, it's got the foil stuff on it or in it. That stuff reflects. It's something else, something different.

Not my style, but they are pretty cool.

Not sure about that printer though. I’ve gotten some real crap from KS decks lately that haven’t been with a major printer.

I got mine today and looks really nice. Definitely a collectors item vs. cardistry deck.

I recognized that reference artwork immediately. That's Nick Molokovich. (@nickmolokovich on IG)

So I got the Collectors box:
Full Deck Scan: https://cardscans.piwigo.com/index?/category/980-bastet
NOTE: This deck took about 6 tries to scan in. It is a bronze foil on black BG. the deck is about 25% thicker than a standard deck. The card stick leaves fingerprints as it is like a velvet touch paper. That said. It is a beautiful deck. Due to the High foiling, cards have been lightened to show detail
