Bicycle "Venexiana" deck Live on KS

[Lotrek]

"Venexmalia" ??

I think Da Vinci era Florence would be a great theme too.

Haha! Venexmalia! Great!

[Lotrek]

Okay. That was it! Venexiana got funded and HMPC begins a hopefully interesting adventure in the world of playing cards. THANK YOU all for your support, comments and participation.

Congratulations!

For those of you that missed this project, Lotrek passed a link to me today: http://www.halfmoonplayingcards.com. A "collector's pack" with both tucks is available while supplies last for $21. Shipping is very reasonable.

The pics of these cards are fantastic.

Thanks for the link ratledge. Can't believe I missed the KS project.

They do look fantastic. Any idea on when shipping will commence for the US based folk Lotrek?

As I recall, he told me that the non-KS decks would start shipping on 1-Decembre, but I could be wrong. I'm hope he will answer. The day I posted the link was the first day after the website went live...

I'm thinking that was because he is still shipping his Kickstarter decks. Like I said -- I hope he answers, I'm certainly no authority on his decks, although I have some on order.

I just received an email from our man in Greece - the cards will start shipping in 2-3 days. KS backers will get their decks before the end of the month.

[Lotrek]

Hi all,

Yes, the decks are already in the fulfillment center! They'll ship in 2-3 days (they had problems with the storms there in the North, which left them without power all day yesterday).

I believe that KS backers will get their decks before the end of the month, as planned. Stuff purchased from my site will indeed start shipping after 1st of December as I want the KS backers to get their items first.

Thanks for your support!

P.S.: I should not be the person who says that, but I can't help it! the deck came out so beautiful...

It's not wrong to be proud of your baby, you know! Can't wait to hold them in my hands

[Bikefanatic]

Great, just in time for Thanksgiving.

Did these ship from Greece as I still have not received mine in the UK.

[Widdee]

Got mine today. One black one white. Great looking decks!

The international shipment was sent out on Monday. You should have them by Friday or next Monday.

Widdee, you're the first to report receiving the decks!

Thanks!

Well they look great! I am holding off on opening one until I have a snifter of brandy but the tucks are awesome!

Don't get too drunk, okay?

[Widdee]

No promises.

[Lotrek]

More and more people report receiving their decks! I love this!

[RickDavidson]

Congrats on such a well run campaign Lotrek. Can't wait to get mine. I'll let you know how they turned out

[samurai007]

Got mine today, they look great, and I like the added page with the descriptions of the cards.

That was a nice touch, wish more deck builders would do this.

[Eoghann]

Aw man. Lotrek, just email me your signature and I'll staple it to the decks. I want these NOW!

[Brillig]

Got my cards (Calif) today, they look great - I wouldn't have even noticed the KD thing if it hadn't been mentioned

[montecarlojoe]

Really looking forward to these!

[rousselle]

Received mine (Seattle, WA) yesterday. Haven't opened them yet, but look forward to the, ahem, unwrapping this weekend.

The miniature booklet was a very nice touch. Very classy, Lotrek.

And, also, I'll thank you for waiting until this project was fulfilled before launching the next. You have earned my confidence, sir!

Thank you Rousselle!
Many people liked the stories behind the cards so I thought that this would be a nice little gift from me instead of a downloadable PDF for example.
As for waiting to fulfill before launching the next, it didn't even cross my mind not to. For me playing card design is not a money grab. I want to digest every idea and keep it in my mind to mature before I start design. This takes time.

Thanks for your support and trust!

I'm pissed off Eoghan, almost all US backers got their rewards, I'm expecting all international to be in backers' hands by Wednesday and the decks I need to fulfill orders with wooden boxes and signed stuff are apparently stuck in the Greek customs office!!! I'll go there on Monday to look for them. If I don't make it I'll have to come up with an alternative which will result on a further delay. Jesus!
