As usual these collective art decks look good (but not necessarily in a deck), but im never convinced by their quality and price. although by having worldwide shipping included its not crazily unreasonable.

ill be keeping an eye on these.

Interesting. Reminiscent of the Black Rock Collective decks. No early birds though, so I think I'll hold off and see if they publish some more designs.

I'm very excited about these. If the designs continue to be this consistently interesting, it'll be like having an art gallery in the palm of my hand.
...even though the art will never change

Similar to the Ultimate deck but the art is less grunge and more refined. Went in for a pair.

They update a lot as new art is produced.

I'm not sure if the updates are public - if not I'll post some images when I'm not at work!

(I have to say I love the ecclectic mix of artwork so far!)

Agreed. I'm generally not drawn to multiple-artist projects, but I'm really liking this one. Lots of beautiful designs and very few clunkers.

The updates are not Backers-only. 14 so far and there are usually two or three new cards in each one.

I went in on this deck with their previous Creative deck as a combo. Really liking this more with every update.

I was on the fence about getting this after Jackson's whole "focus your collection" speech, which I agreed with, and mostly collecting with cardistry in mind this certainly didn't fit the bill. But then I remembered how much I love the BRC decks I have and how often I show it to people, saying "playing cards can be an art gallery with 54 different canvases". And wouldn't you know, there was a single pledge open at the "both decks" level with my name on it

Lucky!
Been eyeballing those tiers for days trying to snipe one.

You can still buy the creator deck at their store and pledge for the new one

I was going to order a pack of Creative Cards but read in the Kickstarter comments that they're bridge-sized, so I passed on them

One comment. 2 of clubs. Most awesome looking art piece ever. Wish I could get a brick of these.

Did you open them?

If so how does the stock and finish feel on them?

Unread post by **badpete69** » Sat Nov 09, 2013 7:10 pm

Yes I opened my deck and it is very beautiful art wise. I would not buy these cards for handling. First they are indeed bridge size and they do not have any special finish or feel to them. They are just like pokemon cards or baseball cards. Nothing special. But they do look nice in the 9 pocket sleeve

Just found this deck. Couldn't find another thread for it. It's called Playing Arts deck. They had a previous deck called creative arts deck. They're another collective artists deck. They're $19 a deck. I picked up a pair for $46 shipped from Spain.

Ok. I wasn't around back then. Thanks.

No worries. Some of these old threads are hard to find and we are always interested in any decks just in case

volantangel · Unread post by **volantangel** » Sat Aug 23, 2014 12:50 am

Well, i do have an extra creative arts deck lying around if anyone is interested. Btw i really like the playing arts deck, the plastic cards are of great quality

I would be interested in your Creative Arts deck if you still have it
