This is just a color change of the first Black Paisley Deck from a campaign last month... so, my opinion hasn't changed; the design isn't terrible, but the themes been done before and better IMHO with the Dapper Deck :|

That Black Paisley deck still hasn't shipped... in fact, it's not anticipated for fulfillment until next February.

So, that's a red flag.

What!? “After half a year of creativity...” - they needed half a year of creativity to change the colours... :lol:

...for a deck that already bears a very strong resemblance to two previous paisley decks by other designers?

I would have loved to see this in MetalLuxe and would pledge $20-25 for it. Maybe the details might be too small but hey, you never get better if you don't practice!

Given the state of the recent Silver-back Gorillas, which is a fine fine design that USPCC totally botched, I'd say that with practice, USPCC is getting *worse* with regard to Metalluxe.
