A little more work and this could have been a really cool deck.

Hopefully it will fund and we can see a future edition. I know I would like to see it in red with a little more contrast in places.

I'm definitely backing, I really like that style on the court cards.

Btw, on a related topic, have you guys noticed that there's a lot of decks (including this one) where the digital rendering of the tuck makes it look like it's going to have a matte kind of finish and it makes it look great? That matte finish is make or break for some tucks. Like this tuck would be great in matte, but cheesy in high gloss. The Visa deck had this problem. The digital renderings looked amazing, but the final product was super high gloss and it made the whole thing look cheap.

I'm all for being inspired by other work, but...

From 2014. While I haven't released that design this one is a little bit close for comfort.

Funny, because there was something about the courts that also struck me as somehow your style, Paul, although I was too lazy at the time to hunt down your decks to compare. I think when I'm done working today, I'm going to go take a look.
