Tucks look very dope, I hope the rest is good as well.

Seems like you are getting it printed in China, right? Foil render looks great but it is too fine at some places which may pose issues in Production. I hope you'll get the design validated before Kickstarter launch, if not already.
That said, I, too, have a plan to reproduce a deck titled "Elephant Playing Cards", originally published between 1899-1903 in India. Still a long way to go, I am trying to get the complete deck which I have not been able to. If unable to get it, then it may not happen. Given the name matches this one as well as your brand name, so thought of letting you know in this forum.

Re: Elephant Playing Cards - Namesake deck coming to KS soon
This looks really cool! Troot! That's the cute elephant sound they make with that snout-trumpet-thing-whatever-it-is-called. Shut up.
Here's a video of an elephant squad getting the crew back together after one night of seperation.

Re: Elephant Playing Cards - LIVE on KS!
I'll be disappointed if these decks don't fund. I guess because it's from another country.

Re: Elephant Playing Cards - LIVE on KS!
Sadly I don't think these will fund. I know, I know- too early to tell, right? Wrong. If a deck is only 33% funded after 3 days that's enough to know it won't reach 100% nowadays. Which stinks because I was really looking forward to this awesome deck.Bikefanatic wrote:I'll be disappointed if these decks don't fund. I guess because it's from another country.

Re: Elephant Playing Cards - LIVE on KS!
Yup, I have that same conclusion. It would take a serious amount of traffic to fund this time.vasta41 wrote:Sadly I don't think these will fund. I know, I know- too early to tell, right? Wrong.

What I'll do is keep it going for a few more days, then poll the current backers to see what they would like from a new campaign which might do better. i.e.: which deck was better, price points, etc.
Hopefully we can still get at least 1 deck funded
