150% funded and first Stretch Goal reached!

X.X wow you all have much money to burn
I am impressed

Would be awesome to see all decks upgraded to gilded edges as a strech goal. Or at least the Superior as well to keep the option for someone who doesn't like gilded edges. I want the gilded cards but I collect cards and not figurines so Ultimate isn't really an option. Gilded edges is a must for this deck for me though...

And there goes 200%!

I heard the same argument regarding the Gatekeeper and it was just as ridiculous and plainly wrong then. There is no 'figurine' anywhere to be found, it is the tuck box. Just as the sculpted aspect was part of the tuck box on the Gatekeeper, just as it is on the Ascension Signature decks, just as the outer sleeve was on the Le Chat Rouge Red Label, and the interior insert on the No.17 Crown, and just as we will continue to see as more artists continue to experiment. Does a tuck need to be completely made of paper (and in one piece no less) in order to be a tuck? Obviously not and the suggestion is ludicrous, indicating a fundamental lack of understanding of art and design.

Anyway, backer #6 here, took longer than usual to load! What amazing support for a Tarot project.

Not really. However, for this project...

Bummer........

You don't have a family member of friend that doesn't do KS that lives in an area he can ship to? You can pledge and put their address as the delivery point and have them receive it...then ship it to you.

Also, have you asked Lorenzo?

Last time I asked about shipping to Indonesia through his shop, and he sadly said NO
So yeah, no hopes for me ;3; But I don't know

I'm wondering if it's about the import prohibitions on playing cards (gambling item) that Indonesia may have? Probably have to check with that, and if there is, there's no getting around it unfortunately...

Huzzzah, Lorenzo just add my country in the shipping section (+200sek X.X)
But now, here is my dillema, Superior or Basic X.X
I cant get the Ultimate, is beyond my budget (even though i realy want it XD)

What about the good old different strokes for different folks?
I just don't like such tuck boxes, period. So, I might be allowed to ask the creator if there is the chance to get the cards I would like, with the tuck I would like. Sorry if my lack of understanding art and design caused you an headache. Your existence must be painful, eh? To share this planet with us stupid, ridiculous, bad, bad, miserable humans. I feel for you.

Of course you could always mix and match. You could take a gilded variant and put it in the Superior tuck box or in the pouch (if that is what you prefer, if we reach the 400% stretch goal, it will be included for free). If you want the Superior tuck box, then you can probably turn around and sell the resin tuck box with the ungilded deck to someone and probably make your money back. Heck, I might even swap you a Superior tuck for your resin tuck!

I kinda did something like that in the HotRS campaign. I liked the etched carat case half brick cases so much, I added on two extra half brick boxes to replace one of my brick boxes so I could better display the decks. That was actually theCapraAegagrus's idea of having a mixed set of six HotRS decks in the etched carat case instead of a Gatekeeper bundle.

The Ultimate bundle is good enough for me.

Looking at the LIBRARIAN tier, that's a great price for all of that.

Yah, that was my plan B.

It's been raining for 24 hours. Got bored.

Nice picture.

Tony, this is just epic
Glad this got featured everywhere by Lorenzo hahaha

Amazing. I have the feeling I would come across this in a fantasy quest MMO game.

Seeing this, I wish you would get bored more often. This is spectacular.

I'm in.

Keymaster is in the TOP 12 highest funded tarot cards after two days!!

I have never really been into tarot decks but after looking through a few I wish a few of the tarot artists made playing cards as well. Especially the Goetia Tarot in Darkness deck. The arts awesome.

James Eads

Guru also did a major arcana. R.J. Tomlinson just finished his Titanic Tarot deck Kickstarter. Those are two others that come to mind. But, these are playing card artists that expanded into Tarot. As for Tarot artists that moved into playing card art, I don't have any examples that come to mind

YES tarot tarot tarot everyone is starting to collect tarot decks The art is BIGGER! There are MORE CARDS!

Dead on Paper has a poker-size tarot deck

Yeah I have the Dead on Paper Arcana decks. I don't want to collect Tarot decks (obviously I made an exception for Lorenzo). I want to try to convince the Tarot artists I like to produce playing cards .

Why? They aren’t already enough artists reaching for you wallet as is?

More choice is always good. Especially if they add to the wheat. It's easy to ignore the chaff.

Just hit the third stretch goal!

I was about to change my pledge to the Scholar pledge, with the tarot cloth included, until I realized I have the Ultimate bundle which it'll have to be an add-on.


I wanna go all out on this campaign. Besides the deck, I wonder what other uses I'll have for the tarot cloth if I choose to get it? I googled tarot cloth, a lot of them are ugly but the one for this campaign looks good by itself and fits with the deck.

I know what you mean...the Attic tier is looking more and more appealing, even though I have no need for a tarot cloth...and I guess I don't need the card stand or card guard either...but they just look so pretty

I'm pledged for the Ultimate, a Basic, an Uncut, and the art book, but a pocket-sized version might just be what pushes me to just splurge for the attic tier.

You can also use the tarot reading cloth as a surface the display your decks. That is what I will likely use mine for....unless my wife gets it for tarot reading.
