Hi UC,

Most likely, I will launch my KS next week (anytime with a short notice). I am working on KS/IG presentation now.

Will both sides be foiled or just the backs?

Oh these are great. Take my money. Send us the Kickstarter link now!

These look very nice!

Thanks for the comments!

It will be printed with foil on both sides on two decks. IF I print a limited deck, I'll print it without foil (reasons).

♦ Diamonds

I think these are your best courts yet. But I'm sure they'll change before launch
Looking great though.

The purple stands out more. May get both.

Remember - courts are the same for both decks.

Yes, I know! I like everything in this deck. p.s. I always make small changes when I work on files for Cartamundi, but that's it. And I always warn backers that I may update the artwork before printing.

Allow me to suggest considering these two options. I'm posting here because I'd be interested to see what others might think:

elan

or

poise

Thoughts, anyone?

Poise is nice. My suggestion was Kaleid.

The purple clubs and spades courts are purple foiled and blue courts have blue foils......

I like the name Motif, it look like it fits.

Last year my suggestion was "Motivus" which is motif in Medieval Latin. I think motif is too blah.

No.8

Different spelling, I know.

I think you should call it … Dave.

I am looking for a Montenzi deck that can fit the "Kaleidoscope" moniker. Dazzle me with cold foil color explosion. Don't hold back!

I, too thought the backs looked kaleidoscopey. But to be honest, I couldn't give two poops what this is called, I'm in.

Oh well thanks for the comments and suggestions!

Right now votes are 50/50. UC is for Motif, IG - Varius.
There are also some good ideas, and I consider all of them. Thanks!

I asked about the name as I am 51/49 on Varius vs. Motif so... Both are good for this deck. Let's see. I am now waiting for approval from Kickstarter.

@rousselle - it's already a 2 years delay to send you and @Bradius a custom deck. But finally, I will send a deck from this series. And I will name it "Elan" or "Poise"

Dazzle or Dazzlers

I like Poise and Varius too.

And then there are some who call it..... Tim.

Sweet!

And... you just made my day!

Ok. It was hard to design something simple using two colors in the same style/symmetry.

Changes:
1. both Purple and Teal decks are now Limited and will never be reprinted with foil. I can still print such designs without foil.
2. I'll print this 3rd deck without foil. Most likely it will be Kickstarter exclusive. TBC. Cartamundi? TBC.
3. I'll produce at least one half brick box. Need 500-600 to produce two different boxes.

p.s. if I change my mind tomorrow morning, I'll delete this post


Details:

Is the distressed look on purpose? If so, I like it.

In the early days of the Internet, in the CompuServe chat rooms, my handle was Tim the Enchanter.

Yes of course! I also wanted to produce one deck without foil. I may update colors (TBC) but I am not sure as cards are already desaturated. I will also design new AoS and Jokers for this deck.

BTW, this 3rd decks is 100% confirmed now!

I will only believe that when it's in my hands
