An elegant but different card design

[Adamthinks]

Have you thought about setting up a Patreon account?

So glad you haven't forgot about this... As I stated many times before, I can't wait to see this one done!!

I would set up the KS project no matter what. You could finish the remaining cards during the funding period, and the project doesn't do as you expect you could cancel it and try latter.. I complete believe in this project and it can lay the base for you be able to live of your art... Take Jackson Robinson as an example..

Hope you can sort your life in the best way possible and got back to work on this deck very soon.

I'm not sure that I would join a Patreon at this point, but I love this deck and I would back a KS campaign for it in a heartbeat!

I love this art so much. I'd definitely back this project when it arrives.

Glad to see you and glad you're still keeping on keeping on.

Sorry to hear that the economy and all that has been bruising you, and I hope things get easier for you (and for us all!) sooner rather than later!

Hi everyone! I haven’t forgot about the cards, in fact I also started work on the Book I want to create that is the lord of all the characters in the card deck.

No luck with getting a job unfortunately ( almost 59 and no one wants to hire an old person I guess ) So hopefully I can do something with the different art pieces I’m creating.

More of everything soon

Never thought you are 59 years old, incredible.
We would like to help you and answer all your question about making playing cards. feel free to contact us.
I wish we can keep creating playing cards when I am hitting 60. This is just so inspiring. Maybe you can try to launch on Kickstarter, so you can make a living by doing what you love, we can help.

Guess what I started back on?

[sms69x]

So happy you are back on it!!
Keep the great work. Can't wait for this deck to be produced.

Is this project dead?

Is this project dead?

I’d assume so. It’s been over a year of no posts. Hope he is doing well.

His instagram account is @jamesjohnsonstudios if you want to see any of his recent art.

Also, https://www.jamesjohnsonstudios.com/ https://www.facebook.com/JamesJohnsonStudios and u/James_Johnson_artist on reddit.

He hasn't posted any updates on this project in a while, but he's got some recent other work that's still pretty cool.

Well folks, I’m back!

Lots of things in life happening (many great, some not quite as much, lol) that kept me from diving into the project more, but it looks like (hopefully) I’ll be back on track very soon with the card art!

To be candid, have a health issue currently I’m hoping to finally find out what it is and then get it behind me, so mentally haven’t been too invested in doing much of anything. But I have been a bit busy months ago, here is a couple of study Endavail pieces I created that will be one of the new characters of the playing card set, she will be one of the joker/wild cards.

I’m wrapping up the Murderers and Thieves card game so I can FINALLY get it Kickstarted and hopefully be successful enough that I can leave my current job and be able to just work on Endavail and other projects…. Keeping my fingers crossed.

In the meantime, there will be plenty of new updates soon, thank god! Lol

Glad to have you back.

WOW 6 years. Good Luck

[James Johnson]

I am THRILLED to be able to get back on this project!

TMI but my health had pretty much stopped me from doing anything art wise this last year but latest doctor visit was especially positive so back to the drawing board literally!

I feel so relieved.

Here is one of the pieces I’ll start refining soon, a sneak peek. I’m not sure if I’ll actually use him more as a Joker/wild card or maybe just a bonus card for the deck as I have all 4 kings counted for already.

There are a few major updates coming, I hope you’ll find them good ones!

It’s been ages since I visited this thread. Was not disappointed. Really looking forward to this deck (and more sneak peeks).
