brown seems to be the overwhelming favorite, so that's what I'm going with.

also, here's a peek at the style for the court cards...

Oh that's really cleverly done! I love the constant updates and the willingness to open the design end of the project up to us potential consumers! I like seeing this project grow and look forward to the final project, I know it's going to be amazing.

Hey, you are right. My mistake. Thanks.

@Utterfool has a nice style. Don't dispute that  :)

--------
By the way I don't think that "Fool" is a nice diminutive of Utterfool. IMHO it's an ambiguous word - newcomers can misunderstand it.
--------

Back to mustaches - I like the King but I am not sure about the Queen. I think a mirror can work better.

The face cards look amazing and I like how the back design uses only moustaches.

Maybe it's just me, but the Hearts and Clubs mustachios seem far too similar.  With a wealth of mustache styles (i've had many myself), I'm surprised that you'd choose two that are so similar.

Can't wait to see everything brought all together on a KS page! Looking forward to the launch of the project and hoping success for this deck. I'll be in for a deck or two, that's for sure.

Today is Wednesday right?  It's still not launched?  I want my early bird and I can't wait all day to get it... I'm an early bird!  I've been up for 4 hours now :)  I love the aces and I am running out to buy a Monacle and growing my downturned mustache.  Good luck!
