TGW Presents The Grave Witness by Russell Gray

[TheGentlemanWake]

This is a VERY VERY early peek at some work in progress images of the amazing artwork Russ Gray is working on for The Grave Witness.... a murder mystery in a tuck case. Continuing the tradition of high quality, beautifully designed cards from The Gentleman Wake.

This is a new artstyle coming from Russel Grey

And when you said Murder Mystery, do we get to solve a mystery?

[Bradius]

Geeez. Count me in on whatever that is.

[kevork]

The butler did it!

After EotO's quest, I've been itching for another.

[Harvonsgard]

The horticulturist with the hedge clippers behind the rhododendron.

Great artstyle. I like what I see so far. There're barely designs where I wouldn't change a thing - this draft is one of those though.

[Adamthinks]

Well, another intriguing deck from TGW. This year is looking like a TGW year. You have a lot of great looking projects coming up and this is another one. Excited to get the finished works of all of these.

[Strag]

I'm really liking what I'm seeing from these courts

[STLBluesNut]

looks good if they arent overpriced. love the blue and copper.

[manu]

Wow these are great. I love murder mysteries so I'm excited about the potential here

[justinls1]

Wow. These look great. I love the blue and copper. I can't wait to see more.

[rousselle]

"Curses! Foiled again!"

...but, in a good way!

Looking great.

[Eric Lee]

Good question. Are they going to be foiled? At current prices, metallic inks may now be the way to go to get a sub-$15 deck with some bling.

copper foil would be much better, imo. metallic inks are barely bling light and kind of disappointing like kissing your sister. kind of shiny but not really the real thing. TGW has stated on numerous occasion that he is building a luxury brand. judging by previous pricing and pricing on other projects yet to come, reaching sub $15 doesnt seem to be a concern or goal at all. might be lucky if it is sub $30 at this rate.

Russ has made some serious progress on our project!

We are probably going to have 3 versions of the faces. Standard as above, foiled as below and a full color for Dynastinae.

wow dude. half illuminated half silhouetted is so nice

[steampunk52]

Man, who disrespected Orson? He has blood coming from everywhere and then a dog walked on him.

[laitostarr777]

Looks like the courts are inspired from CLUE

[NativeTongue]

OMG, I don't know how I've missed this thread for so long but I LOVE this!

[TheGentlemanWake]

Looks like the courts are inspired from CLUE

Clue and Agatha Christie. massive inspirations.

[laitostarr777]

Ooohh I sense we are going to solve the murder of the old man

[kevork]

I'm so excited for this one. TGW does not disappoint and neither does Russ Gray! Love the idea of the 3 variants that goes beyond just recolors.

[Adamthinks]

I'm loving these. Especially that King of Spades.

[rousselle]

Ooohh I sense we are going to solve the murder of the old man

It was Ricky Jay in the Theater with a thrown playing card!

[NativeTongue]

That AOS is sooo good.

[GandalfPC]

You want a mystery that needs solving? I checked my mailbox and I can’t find these anywhere - but I am on the case…

[jasonx73it]

I love everything about this. Very very excited.

[wingedpotato]

I'll be in for sure, and that color may lure me back to a Dyna deck...

[Kage X]

Stupid me just realised that The Grave Witness = TGW. Another great variation of your initial. Looking forward to the launch.

[TheGentlemanWake]

Russ hard at work. Of the options he's sent for colorways, these are my fave so far.

[Evilgamer]

ahh, honestly of all of them the small coppers on the top right is my favorite.
