Hi all,

I just want to post that my Essentia Playing Cards project is relaunched now on Kickstarter  :D
I made some adjustments to the deck with the feedback of the first try.

You can check the new version out here:

And if you like them, please support it with a pledge and/or share with your friends  :D

Fair comment.

I have been busy to get some more promotion on several websites these weeks.
I think these two stories will give you some more insight in my Cultura Deck.

I actually thought that going more worldwide would be more succesful to attract people from different continents, but I understand what you mean. Might be a good idea to create a deck per continent, it would give a better focus. I will keep that in mind for the next time, thanks for the feedback.

Although I still hope to get this one funded first off course =)

Hi Don,

First of all thanks for your feedback.

I canceled the project the first time because I was not entirely happy with the funding goal and some of the shipping rates. I calculated with a wrong MOQ the first time so I could lower the goal by a lot. I am kind of perfectionistic about these things, it bugged me that I didn't do it right the first time, so after a couple of days I decided to relaunch it. But now I am entirely happy with the way I created the project so I will go all out to reach the goal this time.

Next to that I also was not prepared enough about media promotion, so I am trying to reach out to cultural website, retro design lovers and card collectors now.
Any tips for promotion are welcome off course.

These four countries are just countries I really like, and I think they all have a diverse distinctive culture. So I chose these to make the differences between the countries clear. The idea behind this is that I want to release more countries in the future with the same back design. That way people can choose their own four favorite countries and create their own favorite culture deck.

Hello everybody,

I am new to this forum, so I just want to say hi.
My name is Mankin Chan, I am a product and graphic designer from the Netherlands.
I am a big fan of boardgames and cardgames. One of my  favorite playing cards games is Big2 (chinese poker).
I got interested in custom playing since last year and after collecting some nice decks from Kickstarter I decided to design my own playing card deck.

Hope I can have a good time here on the forum  :D

I'm Mankin Chan, a graphic and product designer. I recently got interested in custom playing cards and after a while I thought of designing my own deck. This resulted in the Cultura Playing Cards, which is now live on Kickstarter: http://kck.st/1F6lzRv

It is a full custom deck and colorful deck, so I hope you guys like it  :D
