Hi Everyone,
I wanted to let you know we plan to release the prices for some add-ons tomorrow. For stuff you ship in a tube we'll be offering uncut sheets, an 18"x24" print of the dragon we use on the Ace of Spades, 11"x17" prints of the four aces, and custom hand-drawn illustrations where we take a photo or other inspiration and integrate the face into an image drawn in the style of the court cards. Eddie at Gambler's Fulfillment has let us know that he can ship up to 6 sheets for $16 to the U.S., $18 to Canada and Mexico, and $20 to the Rest of the World, so we're separating out the shipping charges so people can take advantage of flat-rate shipping.
We're also planning to release the prices for the 3D-printed figurines tomorrow! Here's the link to the project and a pic of the figurines. I've ordered two each of the smaller and larger Pixiu (Diamonds) from Shapeways The expected delivery date is 11/20, so I might not get them in time to show them off before the campaign ends.
Thanks!
Doug

Thanks very much for the thoughts on the card back. We've decided that we're going to stay with the black and white designs to keep the line art technique uniform, but if the project goes really well we might get to this style of deck with the potential for metallic ink and foil on the tuck:

Hi All,

Hi Everyone,
It's nice to meet you! I'm new to Playing Card Forum but have been in the playing card community for a couple of years. My name is Doug Frye, a deck designer from Vienna, VA. I would like to introduce Playing Card Forum to an upcoming playing card campaign planned to launch late this month or early next month. It is a line art deck using Mah-Jongg as its inspiration. You can track our progress at https://www.facebook.com/creativevienna. Here are the three completed character images we have so far.
Thanks,
Doug
