"Hey everyone,

Now that the artwork for the Actuators is done and at USPC, I am looking into the B&W variation that so many of you have been asking about. I need some input on which you think is the better route to go with these: A lighter more grid-like feel or stark contrast indicating depth,. I think I will still employ the metallic inks for the gears but I definitely want to hear what you all have to say about that as well."

I prefer the white one!

What do you guys think?

@Ez: I think he was talking about adding color like the Seasons deck, not that the design looks like the Seasons (it doesn't).

Kinda like the white Seasons deck?

Actually, I meant saturating the grays just the tiniest bit like on the DeckOne (they're tinted blue to look more industrial).

The piping or what ever those are in the white ones just seem too busy for me.  I like the black ones because the black w/ white border and the gray pipes (don't what they actually are) in my opinion look a little nicer.  But i'd gladly use the white ones too.

I like the white one, or you can make both of them.
But I don't like the brown one at all.

I think the black one is much better, actually.  Imagining holding them in my hands, I prefer the darker style for it's added contrast.  I also thing the background behind the cogs (circuit diagram/blueprint thing) looks very bare in the white version; kinda under-designed.

Aren't you guys getting a little bored with seeing black decks come out though? I mean, look at your collections...what is the dominant color? Either way, I think he is leaning towards putting them both out!

Hello Everyone,

Due to overwhelming support and demand I have decided to create both versions of the Black and White Actuators! There is a Kickstarter and it is going live in 3....2....1....

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lancetmiller/lance-t-millers-steampunk-playing-cards-black-and?ref=live

Come show your love. I will be doing incentives when we reach certain benchmarks!
