3 Days left.  Need some support!

My Kickstarter campaign just launched.  Come check it out and let me know what you think.

backup thread of design process.

I tried something new.  White box.

First concept for the box... if i go with the Bicycle brand.

Circles...that's my next deck if this one works out.

FYI. Just got approval from Kickstarter.

Normally, Alex, I would agree completely about the indices, but I actually likes his original indices.  It made the deck stand out more from all the other geometric-pip decks.  If printed small, perhaps on par with the small pips found in an old-style CARC deck, I think they'd work.

But I have to ask, why a four-color design?

I like that you paired red with pink - two shades of the same color.  But rather than going with black (or is it dark gray?) and blue, why not blue and sky blue?  It'll give you the distinctive four-color design you want while at the same time not being as much of a headache to play solitaire with!

I do think the latest design looks more playable.

Why 4 colors, I always thought it was confusing to have 2 suits the same color. I do like the idea of the clubs being grey instead. I used dark blue to keep it dark like the black(charcoal grey) spades.

Thanks for the comments.

I would think the issue would be licensing of the DC/Marvel characters.

First post...

I found this forum after talking with Dave (Vanda decks). I have run one successful kickstarter campaign for logo design and have followed several projects for deck design over the last few months.

First off I am trained and registered as an architect. I have always been interested in all types of design, from buildings to products to graphic design. 

The deck in am currently working on is a minimalistic desk based on a set of geometric rules. It has similar design philosophies as the Vanda deck and also the Core deck (that I discovered today).

Part of the design involves redesign of all of the pips. The result is a new take on each of the suits, taking them down to their most primitive forms.

I just wanted to introduce myself to the forum and any advice you have would be greatly appreciated. I have read several other threads so far and have found that one item to reconsider is the back of the card and if it is two way.

Thanks in advance.
