His video is so fun!

Probably one of the few artist where i get every uncut sheet in the series. Really nice deck with lots of creativity behind, including what he has done to the courts recently.

Hi Everybody, thank you so much for your kind words! To everyone who backed Delicious in its first day, I'm extremely grateful for your support

Lee, I'm so glad you liked the video! I'm going to post a time lapse of the video shoot in an update soon.

Seriously, that was one wicked-cool video. I can honestly say that I haven't seen one better!

I backed for three decks before even seeing the video. I'd back for more but then my wife would make a mountain out of my playing card collection and throw me off the top...

It's a luxury habit, my friend. Sure, it doesn't take as much space as collecting cars, but it does take space. I remember seeing a really funny ad for a storage space company: "Raising a child in a NYC apartment is like growing an oak tree in a thimble."

do you know roughly how much they worth now?

Magasaki · « **Reply #16 on:** March 19, 2015, 06:24:58 AM »

I didn't pay a huge amount, about £20, they don't seem to raise a massive capital they're just hard to find.

This is the only one I can see around at the moment

I hope you all didn't forget about this! I'm sure it will come through in the end, but I NEED to know it will fund soon.

I just love his decks/uncuts, always a treat! Doh,pun NOT intended in this case.

Emmanuel · « **Reply #21 on:** April 01, 2015, 04:33:40 PM »

Thank you, Will, Nate!

The Delicious Kickstarter campaign ends in a week, and for anyone who hasn't seen them, these are the images I shared in a Kickstarter update this past weekend.

These images show a glimpse of the art that went into the deck, and there are examples of art that I didn't use.

Like my other decks, everything in Delicious was drawn and cut by hand. I made the first card on January 2, 2014, and I completed the deck on December 29, 2014.

I hope you enjoy the images!

• Here are the original drawings of the Queen of Hearts, Queen of Diamonds, the Jokers, and cover art.

• Here is an unused spaghetti drawing and the first versions of the 6 and 8 of Hearts (sometimes I create up to 4 different versions of a single card).

• Here are the utensils of of the back design before they were taped down, and a close-up of the final back design, which is made up of 244 cut pieces of paper.

If you are a backer, I hope to be able to share more behind-the-scenes art with you all, and thank you again for your support
