Jase here is the challenge you issued, the key here is to not open the deck.

Great photo Volantangel, although i expected no less :D . I must admit the cards aren`t THAT bad, if it weren`t for those pesky kids drawing all over the courts :lol: :lol: :lol:
i`m afraid to tell what my favorite pack of all is ,just incase you laugh because it has standard faces but the backs and the tuck is what made me want to start collecting,maybe in a couple of days if nobody else requests anything i`ll ask for it (unless you can read minds or someone else asks first)
Again well done on making a ugly deck into something beautiful :D -jase-

Haha and its something that i have not done before ? That rules out a big portion of T11 decks with nice tucks and standard faces. I hope its not the s&m series or any merz deck :lol: I dont really have a clue, it might just be the s&m decks, i would have guessed deck 1, because thats my first run in with custom cards, and i thought it was amazing (dont have it, saw it online :D )

Ah looking at the Thomas De La Rue Anniversary Decks again, gosh if you see a deck on ebay thats a steal, let me know

Hahaha not D&D ,i would have redone the photo if it was. i know you wouldn`t have any de la rue or waddingtons so???/?
As for any De La Rue what is a steal :D Only after me my friend :twisted:

There are two of those Anniversary sets on e-bay.co.uk at the moment, not quite a steal though. one is £65 and the other is £72 but both have the card cover for the tuck box and jokers. :D

Oh nothing wrong with the archangels deck, it has a gorgeous tuck, in fact ive got one coming in soon but not so soon. I hope i can do it justice when i get to do something with it.

Now, on to the picture idea in Jocks thread. Haha i really should have a pane of mirror for this, but not too shabby i think !

Only because of the brilliant idea jase !

Decided to redo the pressers, because its a deck i quite like, and the other photo seemed a little too plain.

This i think looks much better and more to the theme :uggrin:

Hi Volantangel, i`ve seen the Animal Kingdom deck about a few times but other decks have caught my eye so haven`t got it yet, You mentioned its a must buy,Why is that ? so i don`t miss it the next time i see it.
As there are no takers for your request for photo`s yet .Have you Ellusionist`s Infinity. I was thinking a Mirror Maze effect you find in Circuses.

Re: [Volantangel] Playing Cards + Photography

Its a must buy for me because its such a colourful and fun deck plus its fully customised, its not something you see everyday. The tuckbox is gorgeous with the embossing and the printing inside the tuckbox adds a nice touch. Oh and $1 goes to WWF with every purchase :D

Haha the infinity deck is something ive been meaning to pick up, just waiting for a good deal :lol: you always choose the decks that I dont have :lol:

Heres one for the day =D

:lol: Those sultans will do just fine instead mate :D i haven`t got those in fact a few ellusionists i`m after , i`ve got the white ghost gaff deck but not the actual ghosts :lol: :lol: also ignite and fathom decks i`m after.
Thanks for the info on the animal kingdom deck ,i will put that on the ever growing to get list :D
OK . i like the nanswer decks i`ve shown my puppet & kite decks i`ve a few other ,the butterfly deck being a favorite have you any of their decks you can work your magic on??

I was never a fan of nanswer decks, their customization is just weird at times. Oh but that reminds me, i do have one deck by eric duan, and its an interesting one, ill try to get a picture of it soon (its an old and forgotten deck, but one of his best, any guesses?).

But a picture for the day, Old vs New. Oh and i have a question, did they produce the aristocrats in red back in the day?
