I also stumbled across this, and I'm not sure if they are moving forward to produce this or not.. again they have designed all of their cards

eh not a big fan. It just look like a black deck with the glow effect from photoshop. It doesn't look detailed enough to me.

Welcome to Blursville. They are putting in an effort but the overuse of the blur and glow makes the whole thing look really mushy. And look at the 9 of clubs and how poorly integrated the clubs are on top of the swirly design! Seems to me they got hold of a bunch of curly stock designs (those look really familiar to me...) applied some glow and plopped stuff on top.

Could be very cool but needs a lot of attention to detail I think.

The designs are really pixelated too. And if this was printed, it would not look like those pics do.

Pick a theme, any theme! Come on now designer fellows, don't just throw things onto a card and call it designed.

Personally I think that although these seem really confusing and easy to make, they are a creative idea!
PS: Don, back in the negatives, I see  ;)

Ha!  The banner used on the back design is the same one I licensed for my Americana decks.

I actually liked this "glowing effect" on the design...But that's just me I guess.

I have no info on this deck.

I'm really not a fan of the "glowing"
But, I'm a Bicycle whore.. so if they branded it.. I'm sure it would end up in my collection

hahah

How come the font on "Royal Society Deck - Angelo Design" is all nice and neon-y and the font and pips on the other cards are all boring?


The Ace of Spades looks okay because the brightness is toned down, but everything else is a visual sensory overload. I hope the reason we haven't heard from them is because they're being redesigned.

I'm liking this deck less and less. And since its  been around for quite a while with no word on it being printed, I don't think it will end up being printed.
