I'll say it now, if at home you have stacks of Madison Rounders, Artifice decks, Fontaines and S&M decks and don't pledge for this, you are both an idiot and not a real card collector.

HA! So there! :P

Have been waiting for this one forever!! Got a signed and pledged an extra $11 for an add on deck so I can open and enjoy.  I love the 8x10s too, wish I could afford some, they look gorgeous.

It's finally up, wooooo!  I'm in for two decks - I wish I could get an uncut sheet but I simply don't have the room for it right now (it's going to be bad enough with 500+ of my own decks filtering through the house.)

I got an early bird.  I meant to stay awake for the launch but I was exhausted that day and 3 am was just too late for me.  I woke up three hours later and the early birds were still available.  Thank goodness!

Hey everyone, I was invited to show my art at the National Audubon Society headquarters in NYC a couple weeks ago, and here's the article that Audubon Magazine wrote about Clipped Wings!

Hi everyone, Clipped Wings has a stretch goal: If the campaign reaches 36k in funding, the Curator uncut sheets will be reprinted!  :)

Oh man, and they're less than I remembered them being! Ugh. I'm pretty sure my wife will have my bits if I tell her I'm redecorating the office with new prints. That doesn't mean I'm not gonna try.

Thank you, Tony! On my end, this summer is going to fly by. Sawdust will be right on the heels of the delivery of Clipped Wings.

I saw on the backerkit it asked if we were members of the site.  Special treats for discourse members? lol

Saw this too, one can hope :)
I'd be interested to know what percentage of the backers were actually from either forum compared to those who were not.

I also noticed this. I think it's more likely that Emmanuel is curious to see where his fan base is predominantly based. I hope we might get extra early dibs on insider info of his next project.... :)

I can neither confirm nor deny ;) Thank you to all who've filled out your Backerkit surveys so far!

Got mine last Thursday.  I have become such a huge Emmanuel and transformation deck fan.  Absolutely love these as uncuts, my display space will end up being over 1/2 transformation and over 1/2 Emmanuel's work.  I may have to part with some others once his next 2 come out and get delivered.

Just re-using previous image (contains other decks I got recently obviously).
