Skyvora High Grade Playing Cards - Live on Kickstarter

Introducing the Skyvora High Grade Playing Cards! My name is Josh and I am the artist and owner of the company Skyvora. I have created a series of marijuana-themed playing cards for the card collectors, cardists, magicians and stoners. Each face card has been illustrated from scratch and depicts a representation of a cannabis strain.
The cards have been getting a lot of positive feedback on our instagram page

We will be launching a kickstarter campaign soon to get the cards produced. To make things simple we will only have playing cards and uncut sheets as rewards for kickstarter contributions. Items such as t-shirts and posters are already available on our website

All of the graphics for the cards are finished. Make Playing Card Company will be doing the printing and fulfillment of the cards once the kickstarter campaign is complete.

I'm kinda digging this deck. There is a lot of non-conformity but so far it's not too bad.

If there was less cleavage than the grand canyon on the cards I might get a set, as it is, it's rivalling the fjords of Norway so it's a no for me.

Thanks for that 4.of.Clubs! The card campaign will be launching on kickstarter Friday August 21. If enough money is raised we will switch printers and go with USPCC. If you guys have any other good printer recommendations we can check them out as well.

I think Eoghann was talking about the the JoD. The right boob is a little to big.
MagikFingerz - You know me to well friend. I usually like it when you first take a stab at it. I trust your judgement, but I'll lay it on him in layers.
Skyvera - I hope you have thick skin. Your BackOfCard is too safe. Put the leaf symbol in the borders almost touching the cut border.

Make sure your shadow leafs are stretched at the cut border. It nice to see a good borderless back. They are rare. If the cut is not centered at least the stretched pot leafs will make up the difference... If you reach your stretch goal of changing from MPC to USPCC you might want to look into Q1 quality. I think it's like .50 more per deck. It could be more with the casino decks it's the standard. You start with Q2 quality control at USPCC.
Boobs and Pot.

That says it all...
I normally pledge for single decks, but I'll be getting at least half a brick of this!
Hard to come by a good MJ themed deck.

I still click on the thread to clear the "new" indicator. LOL. And while I appreciate big boobs, I'm passing on this deck.

Skyvora - Well lookey there The Ace is considerate a court card. I see a trend.
Gambles Warehouse seems to be a good company to market and sell your cards. Only problem is their card stock. USPPC, LPCC, EPCC, and MPC are a blip on the radar... Liberty not so much..
