Re: GROTESK MACABRE
From the latest update, good to know that all of the past decks are completed except for the Signature Inferno deck.
Also what's the progress on the Bronze Grotesk deck? Seems like that's the forgotten deck since it wasn't on Kickstarter.

Re: GROTESK MACABRE
Grotesk Bronze is finished, too. I just forgot to mention it as it's only 50 decks and was foiled along with the Black Silver edition.
Thanks for reminding me

Re: GROTESK MACABRE
So delivery starts in the middle of July? Looking over the total of money spent for these decks:

The last update says there was an issue with the foiling on the Signature:
"A little problem appeared in Signature edition foiling. [...] Now the plate must be redone and this will take a couple of days. Thankfully, I spotted it at the very beginning and no good sheets were wasted. So, apart from this small drawback all is good."

Re: GROTESK MACABRE
...Just pointing out that I'm glad to see Lotrek relatively quite and what I mean by that is I'm glad he's not showing us teaser pics of 100 new decks and overloading himself with work. What I'd like to believe is that he's quietly working on finishing up Black Mass (cannot wait for mine!) without any issues. What I fear is that he's working on finishing up Black Mass but running into issues. Hope all is well, Lotrek- can't wait for these puppies and then your next teaser!

Re: GROTESK MACABRE
@Vasta: True, I'm fervently working on finishing the Grotesk decks. I'll post an update today with details.
The Black Mass decks are ready and since the work needed to finish the rest is tremendous (I got the cut sheets really messed up and I'm putting around 90.000 cards in order) I decided to start sending the Black Mass on Friday July 28.
I think I'm dreaming...
As for the SANCTUS deck, this was ready long ago and will go on sale tomorrow. It's somehing I tend to do lately: Secretly working on a deck during the intervals of my other projects. Black Mass backers will get a free shiping code for the SANCTUS deck.

Re: GROTESK MACABRE
All this news is BAD ASS! Kudos on completing a deck BEFORE telling the world- I'm sure that not only excites buyers who will get a finished product sooner but also cuts down on your stress level tremendously.

Re: GROTESK MACABRE
BLACK GOLD Edition is ready, too! I will start shipment next week, combined with the LITURGY decks that are also ready. I was planning to send LITURGY this week but my providers finished assembling of BLACK GOLD/SILVER/INFERNO decks a couple of days ago so these will come together.

Re: GROTESK MACABRE
I didn't win that 30 million on Eurojackpot today, but this + my home town hockey team pulling off a win with a last minute goal after playing the entire 3rd period on their own zone just trying to stay alive makes this a damn great Friday. I think I'll go get some 3.35 AM burgers from McDonalds now...

Only Gold/Silver & Inferno which are to be shipped along with the official editions.
Grotesk Bronze was finished a while ago, hopefully these will be sent at the same time.

Re: GROTESK MACABRE
You're right, there weren't any Bronze test decks.
I call them "test decks" because of the announcement why these decks were made:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ch ... ts/1705335" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
"During printing of Black Gold, I did an experimental print to check a few things for an upcoming deck which will be something very special and very sophisticated in terms of printing techniques. It will have nothing to do with Grotesk, it's just that the printing plates of Grotesk were ideal for this experiment."

In a few days I'll break my leg, then we'll have my car stolen full of the decks, then we'll have "Ambassadors" issues with foiling, then a major change in the Hieronymus decks that won't come out as I wanted them to and finally you'll get all the decks after 4-5 years in a huge box.
