 I enjoyed his Medieval deck, and these look pretty cool as well

Many thanks for sharing the pics, Paige!

Yep, another design inspired by very old cards, in this case the Mamluk playing cards. The project's now live on Kickstarter, and here's the link:

Very nice. Another great homage to historic decks. The corner indices are a bit too small.

Thanks very much!

Well the indices are much smaller than your standard Waddingtons or whatever, yes. I can't deny it. The index numbers are actually pretty similar in size though to the index numbers on a standard Spanish Fournier deck, which sees some pretty widespread use, so I still think they are functional.
