Continued from prior post.
Fifth image: I wanted to check out the store, perhaps do a little shopping. I heard there were shortages in some parts of Ukraine but I didn't think it was this bad...
Sixth image: ...and yes, the company operates its printing facilities in Ukraine. You wouldn't believe the number of spam accounts I have to delete from ".ua" domains...
Seventh image: Egor, you stated in the first post that this Demon Head deck was your project. But when I checked Kickstarter, I see the name of your studio as the designer, but the project is actually that of Mr. Roman Kotiv...
Eighth image:...who also happens to OWN Noir-Arts! You're listed has having been the "designer, creator" of the Demon Deck, but the project was Roman's. I don't know if it would be accurate to list Roman as part of "Our Partners and Friends" unless he considers himself a friend of himself. Oh, and those concealed designer names? Who the hell does that? Are they embarrassed to be associated with Noir-Arts? If it's a teaser campaign, it's pretty weak.
Now, having said so many less-than-flattering things about Noir-Arts, none of that takes away from the fact that you have a rather impressive design on your hands. If you and your "friends and partners" plan to push Noir-Arts as a playing card publisher - and as a potential publisher for other designers out there - you need to polish up the company image a bit (more like a lot, really) and you need to demonstrate how these are quality decks you're making. First thing you need is someone who knows English to proofread and rewrite your website's text. When I see multiple grammar and syntax errors on a website (or anywhere else for that matter) it bothers me and makes me think they just didn't care. (I make such mistakes, too, but they're fewer and further between and I try my best to catch them before they're "set in stone" anywhere.)
I read the pricing page for print runs of playing cards. It leaves a LOT to be desired. All it states, simply enough, is that decks start at $1 a pack and have minimum runs of 500 decks. That information is next to useless in terms of someone working out a project's costs. I could go to MPC at makeplayingcards.com and tell you practically to the penny what a project will cost. Now, you could say, "But USPC, EPCC, LPCC, etc. doesn't list their pricing," but they're also the industry leaders and can afford to be a little secretive about pricing. You're not in that position - if you show pricing like MPC does, you'd have a much better shot at attracting new business. At the very least, if you don't want to go the "up-front and open" path, REMOVE the pricing page, because in the state it's in now, it's about as useful as firecrackers in a bucket of water.
I'm hoping you take all this as constructive criticism. It's the vein in which was was intended.
