I think what troubles me most about this is how well you've color-matched the blue Damask. Just how much time and effort did you dedicate to scouring Google image search results for just the right shade of blue banana hammock...?

LMAO... It took 30 seconds... When all the images came up I was blinded in disgust and also my son walked in my office and just gave me this look when he saw what was on my monitor [MURRAY] [BACON]

Well, I know this isn't the right spot to put this but I think TwoPiece and PipChick (and everyone else) may like this deck: Credits: Back of the box: I'm sure Lotrek won't mind me hijacking his thread to show pictures of another beautiful deck

I think from now on anytime someone says my generation has no attention span, I will be reminded of the time that a thread by Lotrek, one of the gods in the Pantheon of Playing Cards Designers, was literally derailed down the side of the Great Internet Mountain by "Ooooh...KITTIES!"

I'm sure the thread will get back on track as soon as Lotrek posts some more information regarding the deck.

I'll probably create a new thread for this "Gatos Baralhados" (Shuffled Cats) deck tonight or tomorrow.

I've never bought a Lotrek deck before, is there an email list I need to be on or something?

You can sign up for Lotrek’s email list at oath playing cards website under the contacts tab. Honestly, I generally get better information here.

"Dad, we've talked about this. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed."

This is a test print I did to check a few things like the 3D effect created by the different direction of the thin lines in foil. It isn't the final design but I thought you'd like to see something to deviate the discussion from the cats.

Detail:

What platform will this be released on?

For a minute I read "platform" to mean "console" and I was extremely confused.

Lotrek is in Super Smash Bros confirmed

I guess they really meant it when they said that EVERYONE would be in SSB Ultimate

He's in the DLC fighter pack, though.

Wilfred the Warrior Cat is not pleased

Totally unrelated, but I'm like SO HAPPY to see that despite Lotrek's best efforts, there's still cats on this thread!

Doesn't he know that cats rule the internet and there's nothing any of us can do to stop them from invading & taking over his thread...

You have my attention...

This is going to be my most detailed back so far in terms of line thickness (thinness I should say). I'm waiting for the final test plates for a last test before I show you more pics.

The complexity and beauty of the back design is what grabs me. You can impress these simpletons all you'd like with your shiny foil.* It's the combo of your artwork and materials that impresses me.

If the faces/courts match the amount of work you put in here, then I'll be in for this one.

*Why I don't care for Damask with the standard courts.

This is for Bradius and Pipchick

OMG - THAT CAT IS STANDING UP AAAANNND WEARING OVERALLS!!! Gaaahhh,Ijustcan'ttakesomuchGoddamncutness!! lol

oh, and I guess Silk looks pretty cool too... lol

But seriously...




also, badpete69 - that game looks kinda shittyy...

"SILK" aims to create a feeling of depth and richness in detail using only 1 foil.
