You're going to stoke a lot of interest with a back like that.  I can't wait to see the rest of the deck.

any progress?  This maybe late, but your corner badges on the back need to be just as special as your center badge.  They are a bit lacking.  Your center badge looks great.  not many ppl go with a center badge. it's like 30% - 70%.

Hi sprouts1115,

I agree with you regarding the corner badges, they will be reworked and most likely the frame as well.

We have all cards A-10 fully done and many of the face cards are nearly completed, we expect to have all artwork done by the first week of June.

We have decided to hold updates until we have all the work on its final stage. But soon you should be able to see more artwork.

We are also a magic company so we have also been busy with video editing for some moves that we will sell on our site.

On a side note, we are now an officially incorporated company under the laws of California.

With best regards,
Martin S.

Hello again, I am very pleased to release our first Official teaser for our deck of cards.  Our deck can be expected to hit Kickstarter early this Summer.  The teaser reveals the center of our back design.

Best Regards,
Lucky Card Company, Inc.

Please tell me that it's the image that's blurry and not the back design!  :))

Why tease?  Just show it!

Well of course it's the image Don ;)

We will show it all in due time.  Many folks here have access to 1000+ people and we rather not leak any more than this at this time. 


Best Regards,
Lucky Card Company, Inc.

is time yet to leak anymore?

Hi guys,

I know that many of you want to see more updates, and while we want to update as often as possible to avoid a lynching >:( >:( >:( sometimes we are not comfortable outputting images that are not done or up to our standards. We are working very intensely on color at the moment, and sometimes the color tests do not turn out as good as we want so is back to square one.

Anyways, for your viewing pleasure, I'm releasing an unfinished image which we are working on color, I hope you guys enjoy it and remember its a work in progress.

Kudos to the one that guesses which card this is.

Best Regards,
Martin S.

Can someone please tell me, as I've commented twice on Facebook with no answer - or at least I'm pretty sure I didn't get an answer, I could be wrong.

Is Lucky Card Company (and Loop Cuts) essentially Robert Butler?

No, not to the best of my knowledge.  There were accusations of such flying around over at UC, but it was denied by both parties and they don't even appear to have the same writing style...

Hi, JP, I'm Martin, the Founder, Sole Owner and CEO of Lucky Card Company, Inc. I know Robert Butler and to answer your question, no Loop Cuts and Lucky Card Company are not the same.

Second Don is right, this was a rumor that was started over at UC with no real and factual basis for its foundation.

And MrMollusk its not the King of Clubs  :-[ , Try again  :)

Hey guys,

Checking in, some quick comments and updates.

Things are going really crazy as we are in the final stretch of painting/color, then we start the exciting process of checking details with the USPCC. If you have been following us on Facebook you probably have seen that we have released other cards that have not been shown in these forums as well as other news non deck related.

As far as forums go, this is the only card forum where we will be publishing news, so stay tuned :).

Had a chat with the designer today to check the schedule and we expect to have all pieces done by Tuesday the latest (hope he can stay on target and I will confirm this on Sunday).

To keep things exciting tomorrow we will be teasing 3 other cards. We have not yet decided which ones or what time we will release them. So if you're really into the deck check in often.

Don, your price is 2 dimes and a half dollar  :D, it was hard to find a 20 cent coin. Joking aside, when the project funds I'll toss a deck your way just for being a good sport.

Mr Mollusk, thanks for trying.

Best Regards,
Martin S.
Lucky Card Company, Inc.

Hey guys,

Updating you again, our designer uploaded one teaser with three cards to our Facebook page, I'm uploading them here now.

For colors, as of today it seems were still on schedule for Tuesday.

I like what I'm seeing, but I do have a suggestion.  I know this deck is more about showcasing the art than about functionality, but I'd recommend making the typeface for the numbers/letters in the indices a bit thicker - they kind of get lost in all that boldness they're surrounded by.
