Passport playing cards

Unread post by MSimonart »

A new project on kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dr ... ject_share" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thought the theme was good, but that's about it.
First time creator
15USD for 1 deck
15USD shipping for 1 deck
30USD for one deck, ok.

The backs make no sense and are too plain.
Some of the courts look somewhat ok.
I like the fact you could choose your country.

LOL. I see what you did there.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

I really like the idea/theme. I also really don't like the execution. The box and card art do not fit together at all.
I've spent way more than I care to admit on playing cards, but I'll still buy just about anything that Lorenzo, Jackson, or Gio make.

As someone who is pretty interested in security printed stuff and was always strangely fascinated by passports, id cards and/or currencies and their respective artwork/design, I like the theme too and sadly have to concur on the mentioned lack on execution.

Can somebody pitch this theme to Jackson Robinson please! I'm talking about Legal Tender but with passport art instead of currencies.

I was actually thinking that this seems right up his alley.

This. I like the concept, and the faces look almost ok, but there could be so much more style here.

JR would have these puppies all stamped up and looking used by a globetrotter, just sayin'.
