Great illustration without a doubt. The artstyle still screams good night stories from Middle-earth for kids way too much for me though. I guess I can stop visiting this thread unfortunately.

No chance T11's (most likely monochrome) back will be half as good as this.

100% this. It is SOOO CLOSE to what I want, but just isn't. My problem is I want an artifact that feels like it came from the world of Middle Earth, not from the digital pen of our world.

Totally understand, and fear not we will be releasing the orignal "artifact" version as a stretch.

Side note, to the "Good Night Stories" comment. Remember that both the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings started out as children's stories.

Sure thing. It's just a matter of personal taste; Some like peated Scotch, others prefer Rye Whiskey. I'm pretty sure this style will work for a way broader audience and as mentioned is still awesome.

Don't get me wrong, I'll still be getting it without reservation, but it will be another beautiful deck in my collection instead of the "greatest deck I've ever seen."

Does anyone know if Jackson has mentioned which card company he plans to use this time? My experience with his cards on EPCC has been pretty awful so far (at least for the heavily inked and foiled decks).

Don't quote me on this. These will have foil, but I think Jackson is done with EPCC for now mainly due to shipping prices. I think he might be using a new printer that he is using for Mistborn that he likes. He has not revealed the name of this printer though.

Can anyone owning both Mistborn and any of his foiled EPCC decks comment on the differences?

I believe Mistborn is a preorder so we won't know what they're like for some time.

Well the Mistborn decks have been shipped to Jackson in late February and I think (I THINK) they have received them a little while ago. Again, don't quote me. I thought I remembered Jackson saying they would start shipping out to people who only ordered the standard decks soonish, but the others still need to be sent off to the gilder and they are still waiting on the leather boxes.

Jackson has said that he is REALLY happy with the way they turned out.

He's said he'll be putting out the earlier designs as a stretch goal so there's that.

He is far from a valuable source when it comes to card feel unfortunately though.

Handful of folks already mentioned it but I gotta chime in as well.. Gandalf the white definitely approves ( ;) ) the right side of the art work and want those deck of cards. I just hope one does not have to pledge for the left one in order to get the right one.

Jackson has mentioned that these will be about $10 to $12 for a standard deck. Should draw in a lot more non-collectors at that price.
