An interesting concept, but it doesn't really jump out at me and say "buy me now!"... perhaps I need to see more of the cards....

Somebody's been practicing drawing chicks a lot more than dudes :lol:

Seriously though, the artwork of the queens look a lot better to me. But the amount of grey and dark shades makes the whole color scheme pretty dull, especially for the back design.

I find this deck hideous. I do not expect to like everything on KS but things seem to be getting pretty bad.

Thing is I think the guys fit the style better. That queen of hearts sticks out like a sore thumb, and not in a way that I think I'm okay with.

Lol yes we are everywhere... Well as a matter of fact most of wat u guys said is truth. This deck is designed by two people. I am a game designer and I draw the queens, glad u like them. And since my friend design the guys... Well thank u for your advice tho, we fix the queens of hearts a bit since her hair color is too bright. But hey we draw the jackes as a loser because they all have their own story. In fact the whole deck has a story with in, every character has a individual story. It is not a deck you can just hold it in your hand, its a deck that you can talk about it. And you will never see anything like this again since after this poject I am gonna sit out...

The back design is alright, but I really don't like the court cards. I'm going to pass on these.

$5 says, that is a shill pledge, or a relative of the backer.
