KoH by Brad Gabbard (Native Tongue Studio)
It'll be a shame to see such a talented artist exit the playing card realm, but at least he's taking care of outstanding projects and also finishing off with this banger of a card.

Now that you mention it, I went back to the KS update on Nighdreams and Daymares and I suppose his verbiage does indicate he may do commissions.

I especially love how expressive the face and hands of that KoH above are.

From my understanding of his post, I think he will still do playing card design, but for others and not for himself whereas he has to manage the entire project. I hope this interpretation is correct as Brad is a very talented artist that I would like to see more from.

Assuming that he is still going to fulfill that is. It's not been over 5 weeks since the update on Nightdreams and Daymares and that update was rather light on details around timelines (as in there were none). It's also concerningthat he didn't post any update at all on C.A.R.D.S. which is also late, why would you update one project and not the other?
Hasn't logged into KS since that update either, and yet he said that he had "an extensive backlog of messages etc. to work through in the meantime so please bear with me there as well." Not sure how you can respond to that backlog without logging in.

It is my understanding Brad went through some pretty tough stuff recently and could use a bit of breathing room - patience and finger crossing once again called for.

5's by Bivas Bhattacharjee
Music is the emotional representation of the cosmos, where random forms emerging, is subdued by choice selection into harmonies, and through their infinite combinations, the soul is repeatedly engrossed in bliss.
Mathematics, the cerebral twin of music, describes the material form of the cosmos, where patterns are defined, codified, and understood to make sense of it all, thus satiating the rational mind.
When both come together, they create a visual duet, where artistic mathematical patterns emerge out of music, and music emerge out of geometric patterns. This is what | have tried to capture in the 5's of this excellent Unity Deck, imagined by Dexter Amistad. It is an honour and a privilege to be a part of this wonderful concept, and I wish the very best for this project.
I wish to share my inspiration for this project, and | request everyone to check out the following two links:
ONE - Where, Benoit Mandelbrot, visualizes fractal forms of music -

SECOND - GeoMusica, an incredible tool that enables one to make music with geometry by Rui Gato -

With best wishes

I really like those 5's. I'd kinda like a whole deck based on that. Wouldn't be great as a useable deck, but I really like the design.

AoD by Jocu!
This is probably my favorite Ace from the jocu deck so far. I want a full deck to match the design of this Ace.
All the cards are really nice. I know this is totally out of the Frankendeck concept, but I wish they would make a regular deck...

QoH by Marianne Larsen
I'm hoping some musical elements will be added to the back, but I love the harp and the front. My mom's name means harp and it's a truly beautiful instrument we don't really see come up all too often.
EDIT: Artwork is final per Marianne

It doesn't appear that all cards have been designed by their respective artists yet. I have asked if this will be a Kickstarter, pre-order, or ready-to-buy, and will keep you posted.

2s by Sviatoslav Pashchuk aka Sviatko Bocian
Hi my friend! So, I finally finished the 2 I promised. Since we have a great baroque cultural heritage, my cards are decorated with baroque decoration, which I love very much. Each card contains notes that create the melody of our Ukrainian composer, which the whole world knows. This is the famous Carols of the bells Christmas music. The author of these brilliant lines was killed by the communists in 1921. His name is Mykola Leontovych. It is in bright memory of this artist that I created these cards. Christmas stars are also present in the decor, which are a symbol of new life.

This list I made was to show who already done their part.
