Hi! I'm putting together a deck of PNW themed cards, with each suit being a landscape & animal. Every card will be fully illustrated. Here's the 2-6 of diamonds.

My day job is board game illustration, but I've always loved a simple deck of playing cards as well.

  • Charm gets you quite far. Guile gets you the rest.
Are you also going to have Plains, Mountains and Swamps?

Joking aside, those are really pretty, I am excited to see more
Kickstarter completely revolutionized the way I waste money.

The people who handle playing cards are always in a world of delicate fingertip technology.

Haha, thanks! No, Pacific Northwest theme, so we have ocean / jellyfish, forest / fox, sky / raven, and mountain / pika (pika crack me up because they look like furious spheres of cuteness https://www.britannica.com/animal/pika ). Wizards of the Coast is just a couple hours away though...
