Here is the Box for the Rainbow Illusion Metallic Deck. I think the smaller design is the one to go with. Any thoughts would be great thanks Landry

Glad to see you took some of my suggestions and ran with them!

I think that the second is too large and the third may be too small. Number one appears to be a good size - but there's really only one way to know for certain...

Try printing all of these out on plain paper and cover a few tuck boxes from cheap decks you don't care about with them to see how they will look in your hands. That's a good way to judge which scale you feel works best.

The second box is the limited edition playing cards and will have 2 metallic colors. The box is going to have a UV coating that will give the Pantone inks a shiny look.

Landry, these new box designs look amazing! Seriously well done, the colors really stand out against the black so much better. I think of the three designs either the 2nd and 3rd.

The cards are ok. Would it be to premature to say these are going to be snatched up by http://www.collectableplayingcards.com

If you are asking if I have contacted some online stores to talk about selling my decks I have. As far as them taking over my cards and doing something with them, it's not going to happen this is my deck and I want it to be successful.

Hello everyone I have been retooling my Rainbow illusion deck and have some more pictures to show off. I would love to know what you think of the Special Edition black deck now. I am still working on the standard deck. More on that later. Thanks again Landry

I wouldn't put the pips in the bubbles. I thought that 5 of clubs had only 3 pips for the longest time.

lms_jam · « **Reply #32 on:** March 30, 2015, 06:25:50 PM »

I was thinking the same thing. I will see what else I can come up with.

lms_jam · « **Reply #33 on:** March 30, 2015, 08:26:48 PM »

I have a new layout for the pips now. I think it works any thoughts? Thanks

I like where this deck is going. The circle back will look pretty good in a fan.
The one downside I see is having the 4 indices colors bleed to the edge. That could be an issue for poker players. For me, I just wouldn't use them for poker.

This is what I have in mind for the Standard deck. Not sure about the courts yet I think the one with the color behind it makes the court less visible not my favorite. Thank you for your Input.

Not sure about this idea. To much color I think.

Try to avoid having faces that will be printing into the bleed like that, especially when you're dealing with a four-color deck. Those colors will be visible from the edge of the deck, effectively becoming a marking system for suit.

Put the indices further into the corners.

Don't Know how this looks or if It will work or not. What do you think?

It's an improvement. Go just a bit higher with the index. Use a pack of plain Bikes for comparison.

Hello everyone I am getting ready to launch Rainbow Illusion playing cards on Kickstarter real soon and would like to hear your thoughts before I launch please check it out https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1427052189/1283396644?token=9ea2465d Thanks Landry

Don Boyer · « **Reply #41 on:** June 17, 2015, 07:49:21 PM »

Looks good from here. The color patches on the indices works nicely - it also looks like you've worked out having a two-color deck and a four-color deck. Sweet!

The big question here is - what's the intended goal?

Cardfool · « **Reply #42 on:** June 18, 2015, 01:22:02 AM »

I'm definitely in...any possibility of higher tier early birds, say for half and full bricks?

lms_jam · « **Reply #43 on:** June 18, 2015, 06:41:15 PM »

Thanks Don the intended goal is to print both decks but I have been noticing that even some really nice decks are struggling to reach a large goal on KS and I was hoping that if I got one done I could always do the other later. I need to raise $5800.00 to print just the Standard Deck. I don't think I will have any higher early birds at this moment does not sound logical at this point. I was thinking about doing a 2 deck wood card display I just need to work on a sample and see how it looks, More on that later.

Cardfool · « **Reply #44 on:** June 18, 2015, 06:59:22 PM »

Though I do like the deck, the limited number of tiers and per deck pricing will limit the amount of decks that I will want to purchase. As you mention, there are a lot of other decks out there and $14 for a single deck is quite high (imho) and though the pricing does come down as volume goes up, I don't see myself getting more than 1 or 2 decks at the moment unless there are EBs for higher tiers.

lms_jam · « **Reply #45 on:** June 18, 2015, 07:15:54 PM »

once the second deck is unlocked I will open up more tiers to include both decks.

Hello Everyone my next deck is now live on Kickstarter. The Rainbow Illusion deck is a four color suit deck but it still has two suit colors white for the hearts and diamonds, black for the clubs and spades. Come on over and get yours now. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1427052189/rainbow-illusion-playing-cards-0/description

I've just doubled my pledge in hopes these fund. I urge anyone who has seen the many Rainbow campaigns come and go to give these a solid look. They've come a long way from what we first saw long ago and may grab your interest a little bit.
