Re: New Dani DaOrtiz Playing Cards
That's a nice shade of blue, very nice. I know it's just a one picture of a tuck box right now and we have not seen the cards yet but my god is the design bad. And not meaning Michael Jackson like Bad, but designed like an elementary school pupil bad.
I hope the cards look better than the design on that tuck...

I dream of a world where wars are fought only by having dance offs. I also dream that a Finnish playing card designer would exist. The former seems more likely to happend.

Are lobsters mermaids to scorpions?

Re: New Dani DaOrtiz Playing Cards
I like the design, I don't like the 'It's your life' that is a deal breaker. Is there a significance to the bulging cheeks on the queen?

Re: New Dani DaOrtiz Playing Cards
Given that DaOrtiz is a magician, I'm going to guess that Queen of Hearts is a gaff card. Or not...it's your life.

Re: New Dani DaOrtiz Playing Cards
I think most of us agree that unnecessary text on the card backs is a "no-no", although sometimes a little makes sense. In this case it's large enough to be obtrusive and definitely not required.Justin O. wrote:I like the design, I don't like the 'It's your life' that is a deal breaker.

Those nutty cheeks? I'm going to not give a guess there.

Re: New Dani DaOrtiz Playing Cards
I remember EPCC posted a small tease of this deck like last December or November already.
Like others I agree the excess words on the back design seem unnecessary. Also the DoD in the center is very similar to some D&D decks.

Re: New Dani DaOrtiz Playing Cards
I really like that back with the foil. The "D" logo is very similar to to D&D's logo.
