Back of Card. Hopefully in the future, the white can become metallic silver.

Edit: Revised Back <--- I notice ppl like to spell edit: here. I remember telling Vivian it need to be close to 16 diamonds like the old Bee. Turned out with a little help the solution is 14 diamonds.

Getting a nice horizontal & vertical line optical illusion off that back design.

Getting a nice horizontal & vertical line optical illusion off that back design.

But it did not come out the way I wanted on the new demo decks. It's not perfect. Even the Aces have mistakes. I'll be giving this deck away for free at the 52+Joker convention. I have 20 decks to give. Decks spoken for are Don, Mike, Jackson, Randy, MagikFingerz, Tom, Encarded, and whoever knows me. I'll give it to you just ask. This deck is not for customers yet, but it is functional...

More...

[sprouts1115]

The Aces have flaws.

[sprouts1115]

There is a "One-way" court somewhere in one of the 2 pictures. It goes with the theme...

[StanKindLee]

I will not be at the convention this year, but maybe I can get Randy to play deliveryman for me.

[sprouts1115]

@Stan - That is possible. Less decks to give out which is a plus. Remember these deck have errors in them. They are not perfect.

Didn't you promise me a prototype way back...?

I like that you are pushing that border - paper thin!

[volantangel]

I actually really like the jokers, wish your entire deck was done in that style

[sprouts1115]

I going to make 500 of these decks before the year is out. I have already saved $2000 for the production order and a credit card is screaming to be put something on it. The full bleed back of card is fixed with some help. All the cards are in done except the AoS. I'm meeting with Vivian this Monday to finalize the cards.

In the second deck, you will have 5 court cards and the Ten pip will be a Tower or Castle card It will be a transitional card from the courts to the pips. All the courts will look something like the Jokers in this deck. I'm looking for realism and expressions for the courts not the pompous faces we have now.

[volantangel]

That font... sprouts, you dont have a good feel for fonts.

And why are you basing your tuckbox design off a cigarette box ?!?

[sprouts1115]

@volantangel - Your right. That is the Bicycle 808 series font. It kind of goes with the theme of the cards. I can't wait and steer clear of everything 808. Has anyone made a box of cards look like a pack of cigarettes? It's something different and it might catch your eye.

[MagikFingerz]

Has anyone made a box of cards look like a pack of cigarettes?

D$D did it with their V24 Gold (or whatever it was called ).

Glad to see you're moving forward with this project, Sir Sproutus!

Finally the Revisions for the AoS:

This will be the line up. The AoH being the ID card. She does have her website on the AoS. Push Me

I did give her the JoC. Artists used the JoC as the signature card back then.

[sprouts1115]

Went to Vegas and came back to a nice package. I'm very close to buying the 500 decks. I did find a error though. I strongly recommend getting a demo deck done before you print.

I'm no photographer, but I'm playing around with the pictures.

[sprouts1115]

I'm cursed with great Jokers. Just to let you know I'll be giving a couple of slots every Sunday at 11pm my time (Central) in the Ace Level: category for $7 + $3 shipping for a total of $10 for USA backers only. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/21 ... n=eda02a9d

[sprouts1115]

The Aces were a little blurry.

[sprouts1115]

I got a package today. I just wanted to see an uncut sheet from Makeplayingcards.com I found out they go with a 11 X 5 uncut for 55 cards. So, EPCC and LPCC go with a 9 X 6 for 54 cards, and the holy grail of playing cards USPCC goes with a 8 x 7 uncut sheet for 56 cards.

It seems they make cardboard circles and tape on the ends for a cap.

The tape MPC uses seems quite brittle too but it didn't break in transit. These have definitely come a good ways. I'll definitely be in on it when you launch. I might even have to grab an uncut if for nothing else but the Jokers. I love them.

How will you layout your uncut? I really don't like how MPC uncuts come out, A A A A 2 2 2 2... I prefer the A-K, A-K, K-A, K-A with jokers on the ends.

[sprouts1115]

"You might want to go over the design carefully - your T of Spades has ELEVEN spade pips on it, not ten..."



@Don - You won a free deck. I'll PM for your address.

Received another package today from Makeplayingcards.com

I ordered 100 decks and they gave me 101. I just want to stress have other ppl check your cards. I didn't see that mistakes till early August and I know I must have looked at that 10oS a hundred time and didn't see it. I was in a timeline for the 52+J convention. I wanted to make 20 demo decks. It takes 15 days for MPC to ship out the cards and getting quick changes from Vivian is like pulling teeth also the back of card was "1-way" I figured hell if your going to screw up on a number card the best card is the 10 card. More pips will just = 10. Lets get the decks and see if anyone says anything...

[sprouts1115]

Well crap. I want to entomb these guys, but the padded envelope weighs to much. I will be using the padded envelope for international shipping, but I need to find a lightweight one for domestic shipping. I have to keep it under the magical weight of 13 ounces. I wish Uline would state the weight of it's products since shipping weight is so critical.

[sprouts1115]

I'm getting antsy. The Super Bowl is tomorrow. I'm going to start the Kickstarter early at 6pm Central Standard Time today. I'll open 5 Eb's with 5 more in the coming days. Just wanted to give you the heads up. Next Eb's will open next Sunday at 10:00pm CST.

[Jock1971]

Not a fan of the tuck box..especially the warning down the side

would like to help out a fellow member of the forum..but can`t select shipping to U.K for 1 deck

so 2 strikes and i`m out i`m afraid

[Fes]

I like that he has his sense of humor on the tuck. That adds some personality to it as it's a little, plain. I don't even have any issue with the big blue MPC on the other side of it, adds a little splash of color.

[rousselle]

Dude! Why are you limiting the number of decks people can pledge for? Seems to me that since you're ordering from MPC, you can expand your order easily if you sell more decks.

I'm in for three. If I get my kids hooked on any games using this deck, I'll need to have a deck or two in reserve for when we wear this one out!

[sinjin7]

Still not too sure about the extra cards, and even less sure about MPC. But I love the Jokers and love the back design (I'm always a sucker for well done full bleed backs) so I'm in on these. Good luck with your campaign, my friend!

[Sharpie]

I backed, 'cause Sprouts would do the same for me.
