No, I just won't sit by and allow poisonous opinions to potentially dissuade future (and present) collectors from supporting him. I've kept no secrets regarding the fact that I will no longer support his projects post-Arthurian, and I will keep it no secret that most of the 3 bricks of his decks that I own are fantastic pieces of artwork with very little to quibble about.
It's kinda like Metallica. Once St. Anger hit, I was done buying their albums, but everything from Kill 'Em All to S&M are works of art. They even enacted some redemption with Death Magnetic. JR will probably have future decks that are good, too, but I'm just not interested anymore.

Re: Maduro Playing Cards (Kings Wild Project)
Speaking of Metallica I was there from the beginning... I even saw them open for WASP of all bands when they were unknown.. We booed WASP off the stage both nights.. Started in 1979 with speed and death metal .... Saw Slayer first tour, Megadeth, Venom, Bathory and the list goes on And to this day still in the dark heavy genre. Guess i never grew up Ok derailment done back to cigars and good scotch

My mouth has been watering for a box of Glenmorangie Signet the past few weeks. I wonder if they still produce it (I have still seen it around recently). I know it's a bit overpriced just for the 'darker flavor' process, but I haven't had a dram of it in years. I loved it.
To remain on-topic (kinda), I haven't had a truly great cigar in years. I have boxes of mini foil-wrapped ones, that have 50 per box, and normally go for $100. I got them 75% off when CVS had their tobacco clearance sales (I was an employee at the time). Those will still last me some time... My best friend shared a Cuban when we were teens (I was 17 - he got it as a wedding gift from his uncle when he was child in the 90's). I didn't know not to inhale it, but even considering that I did, it was definitely the best cigar I have had in the last 11 years.
Edit: Didn't feel like responding to Pete's next post lol. Not many people know about Armagnac. Twice the flavor and half the price of Cognac. Love it.

Re: Maduro Playing Cards (Kings Wild Project)
Since we're talking whiskey... I really want to try that Lagavulin, I've never had a solid high quality smoky whiskey.
And my personal recommendation, the most complex and smooth flavor I've ever had: Suntory Hibiki, japanese whiskey.

Re: Maduro Playing Cards (Kings Wild Project)
You have to try the Lagavulin 16yr Distiller's Edition By far the smokiest whiskey ever, yet extremely smooth due to it being double matured...smokey, smooth and a sweet carmel-y after taste...mmmm. It is not cheap (you can find it for around 80-90 a bottle), but it is totally worth itshaitani wrote:Since we're talking whiskey...

But back on topic: I'm pretty selective when it comes to projects by Jackson [and Jody Eklund]. I've only got a couple of his sets [Sherlock & Arthurian] and I've passed on the last few. Price point will be the decisive issue for me in deciding to back this campaign: if it's under $45 inc intl shipping for a pair I'm in.

Re: Maduro Playing Cards (Kings Wild Project)
Love the theme, albeit a little bit hokey in places. Can't say that I dig the tobacco colored faces, but I like the artwork for these.
The way he used the side to side faces to essentially band the courts works for me.

Re: Maduro Playing Cards (Kings Wild Project)
Anyone thinks that a whiskey thread (or a thread to alcoholic spirits) is on demand?
I'm not a big drinker so I can't contribute very much as the opening poster, but I think it would be nice if someone opened a thread for "UC's favorite spirits" to the general section.

Re: Maduro Playing Cards (Kings Wild Project)
Haha. I 'live clean' most days. I've been an alcoholic in the past, and over the past few years I only drink on a couple Saturdays a month. By choice. I'd rather collect playing/MtG cards, and play some NHL online, than spend a lot on booze, most days/nights.
I feel like I'm in the minority, in that I have always loved Ellusionist's Prohibition decks. I actually own 3 box sets and 5 of each deck all together. I would love to see some other artists' takes on alcohol-themed cards. If JR does that, I might break that oath to not support his future campaigns, if they looked good...

Re: Maduro Playing Cards (Kings Wild Project)
I think when E came out with the Prohibition set we were all duly impressed, as we should've been. Beautiful tucks and fantastically packaged. Unfortunately, that set got lost in the sea of Madison decks so it probably did become a bit underrated. If Jackson put out that set with his take on the court cards, people would've gone nuts for them (although it would've cost 3 times more, especially the boxed set). Someone else who could do a great job with a spirits-themed series is Randy (Butterfield). It's literally his day job so it would be in his wheelhouse.
Speaking of decks that might bring us back to buying Jackson's decks, does anyone remember the Aristocrat type decks Jackson was playing around with? This was after he finished up his Fed52 series when he used to interact here alot, but before the Sherlock series when things went south. I think he's finished with his version of the Tally Ho series (which were great), and if he followed through with his version of the Aristocrat 727 banknote series, that might get me to fall off the wagon. . .

Re: Maduro Playing Cards (Kings Wild Project)
I would really like the idea of alcohol themed decks as well.
As for the Prohibition decks, Disparos Tequila is among the best decks in my entire collection* and Rebellion Rum has one of my favorite back designs in my collection**. All the decks were designed by Oban Jones. I sometimes wonder that is Ellusionist holding him back? If Oban Jones could do more truly custom decks, I wonder just how good they could be, as Disparos Tequila IMO is the proof that he could 100 % pull it off.
