Just few hours before the launch :D

I have a nice preview for you guys, I'm revealing the Stardust Paper, the new paper by EPCC I'll use for Omnia: The Golden Age tuck boxes.
It's very sturdy and have a pearlescent/metallic effect that change with light.
The metallic particles made this paper like a stardust field. Here are the three papers chosen for Antica, Magnifica and Perduta:
stardust2.png
Hope you'll like it (consider my pics are quite bad than, in person it's much, much better)

A little backstage: I always ask to EPCC if they have "something new" for my projects, and for Omnia: The Golden Age I asked if they had a very sturdy paper with cool colors (I wanted a dark red, a dark brown and a dark green). They shown me the Stardust Paper and I almost fell out of my chair. Because Stardust isn't available in green, I decided to do perduta Stardust Grey + green foil - probably even better than the original plan.

See you in few hours :ugdance:

Was lucky enough to get the last slot in the 2/4(2) tier!!

It's awesome to see how far you have come from the Good Deck (That was your first yeah?) and how much your style has really evolved without losing its stylistic consistency. Gotta say it just keeps getting better and better. Keep it up!!

@Justin

The first one was the Evil Deck :)
http://www.thirdway.it/wordpress/product/evil-deck/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Funny and silly, but was very experimental (queens are sexy in ED too lol)

Good Deck is not produced yet. Let's see what to do, I usually focus only on a project at time and for I was 100% on Omnia: The Golden Age. Maybe in future I may fund the Good Deck too.

I have to say that my style evolved a lot because I met a lot great people who taught me or gave me great advice (many of them on UC forum). I learnt a lot, and I hope to continue to improve.

Thank you very much for the huge support :)

Giovanni, since you opted to use the Stardust Grey paper for the tuck, are you going to change the rendering on Kickstarter?

Hi Talisman,

render the stardust paper is almost impossible, because it looks similar to renders when it's in dark (dark red, dark brown, dark grey) and became super shiny when in plain light.
The renders are showing the colors, but I think the final result will be sighly different.

Consider that even the photos of the Stardust paper I posted here are sighly different than the reality. In my opinion, the real paper is a lot better :)

Thanks for starting the year off right with these decks.

While I really like this deck I can't justify getting all 3 due to lack of wallspace and to me they still are too similar. Glad to see it fund so quickly though and looking forward to my now single deck!
