I love what others consider doodles, haha. This would take me hours and maybe even days to create.
That said, shitty layout/design imho. On of those art in cards but not card art decks. The aces are shit (again, design pov - art itself is cool of course). Ace pips are not centered and with their size it makes them unnecessarily unbalanced. The title of the deck doesn't need to be there at all (I could see past that), yet alone four times.
Portfolio decks without a theme are just so lazy. Here's some fifty or so sketches I had lying around anyway so why not try to sell them as a deck of cards? The art's nice enough but not good enough to want a mini gallery of it in my pocket. Random and directionless don't really do it for me.
i have been following this artist for a long time now and love his stuff. i got and posted his first deck here. im on the list for this one. i do wish it didn't have the lines and tape things in there but i am a big fan of his. thanks for posting this here.
I believe the art for each card is original, not from past portfolio - at least thats the impression I got - I’ll have to check to see if I can tell for sure looking at his instagram feed….
Can’t really tell for sure - if anyone chats with him, please do ask…
Sorry I meant they were live to ship. I figured most of the folks on this page had already signed up for his waiting list some time back. I was trying to remind everyone to contact him because a few people haven't gotten back to him and he is trying to start the shipping process.
I tried to direct message him, and he is not responding, even though I was supposed to be on that waiting list. (He had, at one point, said as much in reply to a comment I had posted some time ago.)
I have to say, I love his art, but his system for distributing it is frustrating as all smurf. I wish I could have gotten my hands on these, but I can't be checking his Instagram account every day to make sure I find the magic Buddha to rub to get and then stay on the freakin' list.
balrog, and all the rest of y'all who have tried to keep us in the loop, I sincerely appreciate your efforts to help us stay abreast of the situation. I'm bummed that even despite your wonderful efforts, I'll be missing out again on this one. Alas.
I let them know Rousselle that you are trying to get in touch. Wasnt sure your actual name so gave them your username on here. Hope that helps, he is shipping the US buyers to a US collector who will then ship them out to the rest of us. He hasn't shipped anything yet so if you were on the waiting list then there should be a deck for you. And yeah its a bit difficult to order which is why I missed out on the 1st Dark Deck.
i saw this post a few days ago. looks like another winner art wise. i havent cared for the plastic cases the decks have come in, or the price, but i have gladly paid for both previous decks.
so word came out this morning that this deck is getting ready to go. i dont know where to direct you to get into the chat group but you could probably reach out to him on his insta if you are interested. i sent him a message to look into doing his decks as ks campaigns. also, he said decks 4 and 5 are already in the works. deck 4 by the end of the year and deck 5 early next year perhaps. fyi, the decks are on the high side as far as price and have not come in a traditional tuck. they have been in a nicely labeled plastic container on smooth card stock. fine for me as i am in it for the art.
i love his art! hopefully, he will look to bigger things in the future with perhaps a KS campaign. i think he would be successful with a larger audience. cant wait to receive his 3rd deck
Hello collectors, the DD04 was just released. Sorry I'm horrible with technology so no idea how to add screenshots or the link. I just wanted to give a heads up so nobody misses out.
