Hell Everyone,

Here is a new deck we are working on. It is a pirate themed one way deck with custom courts and pips. What are your thought? Any name suggestions?

This looks fantastic, Mike! Is this a Native Tongue collaboration?

I love the court cards and those custom pips - fantastic work. The card back looks incredible, but I think it could use some smooth textures to counter the crosshatching. It seems a bit too busy. For example, the fighting skeletons have that crosshatch pattern and the background image has the same, so it muddles the overall image a bit. Even the sky behind the ship is crosshatches, so I think that texture could be use more sparingly on the card backs.

Names:
- Sea Dogs
- Swashbucklers
- Treasure Dogs
- Scoundrels & Thieves

Bacon,

Thank you! I will check this out to see what we can do about the issues that you mentioned. While most of our designs will be collaborations with Native Tongue this is one of the few that we had in the works prior to collaborating with Brad. Love the names as well!
