Apologies if this isn't the best place for this, but it seemed like the most likely fit. I've browsed game reviews here for years, but I'm new to the forums. I'm looking for some feedback on my custom art for a standard deck of playing cards. My post about it is on my blog thisaway:http://tishtoshtesh.wordpress.com/2013/04/04/suit-up
The most relevant questions are about the pip layout and paper vs. plastic cards. I'm looking for a lot of data to plan the Kickstarter for it, though, and I'd love to hear any feedback.
I also looked into the "one eyed Jack" traditional design, but I decided to ignore that for the sake of more recognizable portraits of historical figures.
That said, I am slightly concerned with the importance of tradition in these matters. I don't mind bucking the trend purely as a matter of design and what I wanted to do with the deck, but from what you all have seen, is the traditionalist desire a big deal when trying to offer custom decks for sale?
Many thanks!
