Sophia Rae Playing Cards (KS)

[S. Carey]

I posted this in another thread but I thought it should have its own thread as I have not seen one show up yet. These were posted on Instagram by user @valenzuelaadrian http://instagram.com/valenzuelaadrian

Kinda pays homage to the buck twins (buck logo), rounders (back) and ellusionist (Republic no.2)

[Shebhnt]

I'm interested to see what the rest of the cards look like.  I do like the back design.

[S. Carey]

Yeah I agree. The only other card that is posted so far is the AoS.

i think someone should create a minimalistic playing card deck generator...

Step 1. Pick the color of your tuck.
Step 2. Pick Clip art
Step 3. Insert Standard Courts
Step 4. Generate Deck

We can call the app "Deckstarter".... No, wait that's already taken.

It occurs to me that the more unimaginative, minimalist decks get produced, the better the true works of art will be received. As in most endeavours, 'class tells'

Dude, too funny!  Minimalism is right up there with steampunk, zombies and Cthulhu on the list of overused themes.

Minimalist is one thing, unimaginative is another.  The minimalists certainly don't hold the monopoly on lack of imagination!

Actually Don he did not. This was a post from last week as a preview.  Time is money man  no time to check

[JacksonRobinson]

the guy even jacked my lucite cases photos, I can see the reflection of my coffee table in them.

Granted, but in the Plethora, it's still one topic per deck!

You do own copyright to your images...  Perhaps a DMCA letter is in order?

[JacksonRobinson]

Don...

I think its funny that when a DMCA letter is brought up everyone thinks im a bad guy attack the little guy trying to make his way in the world. When are little guys going to learn to abide by the law. I sent a DMCA about that Sherlock Museum deck and everyone got all upset even though I abide by the law and got a license when at the time the public domain issue was still in limbo. Oh ya not to mention the $10K + dollars i spent for the privilege of abiding by the law.

any ways... off topic sorry. small vent.

[badpete69]

That deck has no chance to get funded anyway.  It will be a distant memory soon enough

Jackson, as Don noted in another thread, its sort of weird to send a notice to a forum -- did you send a DMCA notice to Kickstarter too?

Photos of products for sale or 3d models (sculptures, mockups)  are not protected by DCMA. The protection is for the actual design on the product.

Venting is OK, now and then.  I was actually being serious - it's your work and you have a right to defend it.

But when he's taking someone else's photo - that's a copyright violation.  One way or another, it's protected.

[MrMollusk]

I see that he's tagging Kingswildproject on instagram, probably as a cheap shot at a signal boost.

This is really beginning to bug me.

Photos definitely fall under a copyright though more often than not it's not worth the hassle to actually fight over it as it's really not worth time or money. As so many of my design teachers use to tell me, once you put something online, it's going to get stolen sooner or later.

Have you actually see the Facebook post on the KW page? Most of them are by one Youtube Review channel that post on it with every new review they do ...

Who's Sophia Rae?

VJOSE

His daughter... it says that on the kickstarter. He might just fund, he's done a lot of ground work on instagram and has a few big wigs reposting his campaign.

Why does the tuck case say 4, 5, 7?

What's he have against 6?

[DarkDerp]

What's he have against 6?

Ha! Got me!

[S. Carey]

What is the difference between these and the Whispering imps V2 with the minimalist back? Looks like the same amount of effort was put into both but the opinions are night and day.

I'll give it to Mark Stutzman (I assume he designs everything for Whispering Imps?) for the Imps logo but these very different opinions of two decks that use basically the same style is mind boggling to me.

Oh look at all the response of the Rounders & Fontaine decks. People are claiming that its their favourite deck. Honestly people are just buying into the "fame" factor of Madison and the whoever, there really isnt anything else to it.

I dunno - he also has about 25 friends on Facebook...

There used to be a joke when I was a kid...  Why does six not like seven?

Because seven eight nine!   (Seven "ate" nine, get it?  Bet you wish you could give it back...) 

[Magic_Orthodoxy]

ah, I need glasses - it's 7, 8, 12 probably for 2012 like Sophia's birthday

[NOMAD DESIGN]

Hello guys i'm the creator of Sophia Rae Playing Cards and I will love to know what you guys think about this amazing deck, thank you guys! Thank you also for the support.

Hey guys! I'm new at this and I didn't knew there's was a place like this and I think is pretty awesome! I know some of you guys don't like them that much! But I'm sorry to hear that! This deck is dedicated to my daughter and I try to combine my passion for cards and the unconditionally love for my daughter, I'm really excited and hope you guys like them!

Hey guys well first about the pictures that I upload was a misunderstanding, I already talk to Jackson about this and I apologize to him, I was just trying to make an idea of what I wanned to sell, also I have nothing agains the number one the number is my daughters birthday, all this design is about her, sorry again about the hash tag was an accident that I post trying to Wright #kinds, but we'll hope this could give you an idea of all this, thank you again.

Hey guys! So I understand there's was a problem about the pictures and I already talked to Jackson about it so he knows the situation, I already apologize to him, and about hash tag, it was a mistake I was trying to add #kins that's why and I don't have anything against number 6 haha, and all this design is dedicated to my daughter, and the numbers is my daughter's birthday, also the faces of cards will be up this week but there's no changes in the court cards only the color is the one that is changing, I know a few don't like this deck but I understand I just hope I can clear some of the things.
