Title: 5th Kingdom Semi-transformative Deck WIP on Behance
Post by: PipChick on May 03, 2018, 04:24:41 PM
Hi all,

so, I recently came across an artist's work on Behance that is of a nearly complete deck design (actually quite well designed IMHO) and I shared her work on UC (thread here: https://unitedcardists.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=11517 (https://unitedcardists.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=11517)) and contacted her to inquire if she was considering to have the deck produced or to launch a KS to raise funds to do so.

She's based in Russia and says she has none of the technical knowledge needed for production and asked for guidance in making her deck concept a reality.

Problem is, as much as I'd love to help her, I don't have any of the experience or know-how to even begin to point her in the right direction, yet alone give her guidance in any way. But, I thought maybe someone on here does and could help her much more than I'm capable of. Anyways, check out her designs below:

She does have a largely finished deck design here - very cool and modern.  She could look into simply selling the design outright to an already-operating playing card company.  I helped broker a deck to sell a deck to Gambler's Warehouse once.  She could easily shop this around to the smaller card companies if she lacked the know-how to get it off the ground on her own.

yea, that's also what I'm thinking - for a first deck, I think a KS campaign and dealing with production on one's own can be really daunting and might be too much to tackle. Thanks for the input :D
