Wow I have to step up my game  ???


Your PPD is less important than your MPPD (meaningful posts per day)!


What qualifies a comment as meaningful?  ::)

I think I'll have to start collecting min decks too, love them! It'd be cool to see pics of your mini decks paired with the actual sized decks  :D

Just got a deck in the mail. I won it for 20 bucks on Ebay, and then the same deck went for over 40 a day later.. Just wondering if I should open it and enjoy the cards or hold onto it for awhile because it might go up in value?  :-[

2.45 - I'll definitely have more soon  :D

237
Definitely the best prices I've seen around  :D

238
This is all too awesome  :D  Love when people come together for the same good cause, doesn't happen too often. I wish I could help.. Let me see if I can scrounge up a deck or two, or buy him something

Yeah, you can't draw on a black card and have a lighter color show up. If you did red on the sides only the actual edge of the card which is white would become red, it wouldn't be the same as a white deck and black edges.

That actually looks pretty cool! Next time you should do it without the box and make sure the cards float around a little. ;)


Definitely! And maybe in a bigger container

I make duct tape wallets very well, I may have to try and make a combo duct tape/card wallet soon  ::)

Black Ghost 1st edition (Which I can't seem to find but I know I have it somewhere.... I bought it years ago and hid it away  :-[ ) Also a brick of Black Crowns which I sold most of now.


If I could add any deck: Jerry's Nuggets, Gold Arcane, Red Artifice, and LTD.
You lost your Black Ghost V1? ??? ? NOOOOOOOOOOOO


Yeah, It's definitely one of those face palm moments. Years ago when I was into cards, I bought one, and it's in a case somewhere with a couple first edition black tigers, white ghost etc. Now I have no idea where they are  :-[

Derek,

Just a word of warning with Kickstarter: you will need to spend some serious time researching, running numbers and planning things out. Even with all that, there is no guarantee of success but without all those details in line (knowing precisely how much money you need, where it will all go, what rewards are most successful, etc) I think it will be almost impossible to get it funded. I've spent many an hour staring at spreadsheets and juggling numbers around to see if I can get an easy to understand project that people will back and I'd highly recommend you do the same! :)


Thanks for the advice! If/When I decide and commit to making a deck, I'll take it very seriously and spend a good amount of time researching all the aspects of it. I don't want to jump in with both feet unless I know this whole deal is feasible.

LOVE these cards! I appreciate when an artist puts a lot of work into something completely original  :D

This is a great idea. I did this years ago with my shadow masters, it just looks 100x better! I haven't done it recently, but I'd be interested to see what a different color, like red would look like. Can someone post pics?  :D

NEWS FLASHYou can't get away with completely copying someone else' ideas. End of story. The back is so ridiculously similar, and the Ace is not even as good looking as the Arcane  :-[

I think I would go for borders. If you think about most borderless decks, the backs are usually some sort of very repetitive pattern, like the Bee's, Stickman deck, even the new D&D vintage decks. I would want the back to be very intricate, with curving branches, maybe leaves, even whole trees and roots. I think a border would work best with that. I've already told my sister and she's going to be designing it with me, patternwork is her speciality!

So, will there be a Kickstarter project in your future?  ;)


I do believe so!  ;D  Someone will have to fill me in on how to set all that up  ::)
